Cap Gold to coin ratio at 800k. Problem solved.

really? cap it? so then its not a free economy... you sound as if you want to "occupy PW". You know you could learn how a free trade market works instead of having it handed to you, but you sound like so many in this game. You just want the easy way, why bother working for it... please! cap it? are we no advocating socialism in PW? lols

Wow, you took this all the way to Socialism..

In the real world, the free market works because there are checks and balances. There are none here. In my opinion PWI gave players a free market but savy Merchants have changed the rules to that market causinig monopolys which have taken away the chance for any non wealthy merch to get ahead, thus destroying the so called "Free market" that was here.

Personally I see capping @800k as a bad Idea because at an exchange rate like that It would not be worth my money to purchase zen.

I'm a CSer.

Lower gold prices are, less likely I am to charge Zen and sell the gold.

Put a hard cap of 800k on Gold and I wouldn't bother charging zen again.

My catshop hadn't moved ANYTHING for MONTHS before I took it down, why would I charge zen then buy a bunch of items and put them in my catshop knowing damn well that they would never move?

Fixed price on gold would mean stuff you HAVE to spend coins on would get more expensive, while Charm prices, reset note, and everything that's from the boutique would just get MORE expensive. Think of 12m for a charm. Sound cheap? They're already a STEAL at 4m a pop, since it costs close to 8m if you want to buy one from the boutique and only have coins to convert to gold.

Sagek, the "socialism" remark was in jest really, but you are right savy merchants have changed the rules, there is no one stopping you, me or anyone from doing the same, I CS items mostly for resale, I was as poor as anyone, the difference is I buy gold with coins I earn in game, and resell the gold whyen it goes up in value, I have made a lot of money this way, it didnt happen over night and it was hard work, I don't charge Zen, I wish I could, just dont have the funds to do it, but it doesnt stop me from making money. yes, in the real world a free market has is system of checks and balances, this is not real world, we have to work with what is in front of us. Merchants will always be around, I myself have a shop always going, I'm not a trained business woman, but I have been able to figure out trends in this game easily enough, and really if I can...anyone can :P

wooord

QQ more ,you poor ****. when players were trying to get the glitched 105 scumbs off the game thus their unsuccessful merchants too, yall bunch qqed like stupid. Now prices are too high for you?, too bad, get a job geeks or gtfo.
