Like Ryuuku said, I could easily destroy the economy by macroing craft skills all day and making prices the bare minimum so that other crafters couldn't even get into the market without taking a loss. The problem is that we have too many people that don't understand that if you drop prices to the knees that not only do they NOT PROFIT from it, but it hurts THE ENTIRE SHARD. I sort've agree with setting a minimum price on items, but you can't do that without GM regulation and that's not something that will happen here. Craft skills are apparently too easy, as there are new players who get in, GM skills only to drop the prices below the next guy. We're moving toward perfect competition where the price of goods is the cost of the good to the crafter.
Here's an idea! If you're a crafter, instead of paying to buy regs and and spend time macroing, just take the 10-15 minutes to go hunt and make the extra gold it takes to bridge the gap between reg cost and the price people are selling stuff for. I've bought countless BS scrolls and mana pots because it helps the economy and EVEN MAKES MY JOB EASIER! All I have to do is hunt and play and have a good time instead of setting up macros and taking myself out of the fight.
