It seems our abilitys to farm/earn coin are being stripped at every corner..while sure this promotes Cash Shopping it also has the added effect of driveing away the players who have tuns of time but little cash...TW on most servers are dieing simply do to the costs and the much depleted population pools...something needs to be done before this game is nothing more than 500 g16,Rank9`s played by 150 actual players..


I will confess..2 years ago i had no problem dropping 6k (us) on cash shoping, but since ive been back(Barb was **** and PWI didnt respond for 11 days then only gave me 20m worth of **** back so i deleted barb and left for over a year an a half) I started an Archer(same name)
and i see no reason to cs..no matter how hard PWI trys to force it..it seems the more PWI tightens the screws the more they promote botting as most hardcore CS`r have hit the point they no longer "need" anything from packs...and most packs are being purchased and resold with gold bought in the Gold Trade..and not from credit cards.

Why not have a Server Lottery..not sure how you would structure it but giveing everyone an equal(ill be it small) chance at winning a decent amount of coin..250+ mil ?

People continue to say Merching is how you make coin in PWI..the problem with this is who are you selling stuff below lvl 90 to? that stuff just sits on the AH or in catshops for months..even when priced low, and who are you merching to when most of the "other" players are merching too lol... you need people moving up the ladder..people needing the lower end stuff you make and sell for the coin to get the **** you need.

PWI doesnt want us to earn any coin..or farm it...so it might as well pick one person a month on each server and just give them a big chunk of coins...thats right..a bailout is in order...i see 8 Love up and Down tomes for Sale on Harshlands for 450m coin....but dont think there are 8 people who possess 450m that do not already have several of these tomes.

    Bringing more coin into the circulation is the worst idea...

    Yeah we need more buyers not more coin. My faction does a similar lotto event which is good for in fac but server wide would **** the economy even more. Currently the prices of Rap/Canny has for the most part stabilized on my sever putting this **** would make em drop to like 50k.

    chain mail...

    send out 10 mails to friends that includes x amount of coin for each friend & a list of 10 people with your name at the top of the list. Include instructions that each friend is to mail the same amount of coins to each person on the list & put their own name at the top bumping your name to the 2nd position

    Haha everyone is trying to pass the Cash shop buck off to a new generation...trick is there is no new generation...just one more of the masses of alts.

    I agree we need more cash shoppers but i think there is only soo far you squeeze a turnip before you grab another turnip, the game 1-80 is dead..beyond dead i lvled my archer to 75,without fcing..then realized i had to fc to 100 at least because no-one does regular 80-90 fc anymore .. open the flood gates..make it coins abound and leave drop rates up awhile..yes it will **** up the economy short term...but it will also cause growth if timed with online advertiseig and other events, get a few hundred new players per server..then wait a few months and turn off the coin agian..more turnips to squeeze and the cycle of life continues...


    And its always the people with 7+ decked out Alts claiming no coin increases needed

    putting huge chunks of coin into the system is just going to drive inflation like crazy. Sure, selling prices for things will go up but actual profit will be the same and the purchasing power of your coin drops, especially if gold jumps again

    EDIT: We need less liquidity, more certainty

    A few extra pennies in the ocean of dollars isn't gonna do too much.
