[Eighty Swords]

Theo if you have more examples of things that can go wrong please do share them because so far you only told me a vanq went down from 500k to 200k and you find that's a 'good' price. Sorry to disappoint you but I know a lot of people who would find that even worse then 200k! Think of what 500k can buy you... a tower; third biggest classic house in the game and one of the most common. Or it could pay for the biggest base to a classic house and enough to cover 1-2 floors!! 500k can buy you at least 50 team tickets; an R/R cloth - the second highest PVP reward

Like I said there will be some people that will become more independent, but not everybody will be because not everybody wants to macro all the crafts and others don't want any crafts at all.

I find the prices on items right now is way out of proportion on somethings and on other things it makes sense. 10k for 100 scrolls makes sense, 20k for a low armor doesn't sense. 25k for 1 xtreme armor piece does not make sense, on XUO you couldn't sell a set of xtreme armor for 100k. The high prices can be attributed to one thing; people having a near monopoly on some things. If more people have the skills to make the items that sell, the price drops and becomes more reasonable.

your first point deceiving new players to join our server with fake numbers, is just like one of the many lame servers out there. we are not like that, at least i wont play on a server that does that shit.

If we're not like other shards and they have much much higher player counts then us, clearly someone is doing something right.
