Gold Sellers, and the unintended rise.
The gold Squish that was done last year, was, in my opinion needed, and the results have been gold is more valuable., it serves a purpose in game now, and was shown to be a plus.
This years gold reduction makes zero sense. the increase of the gold sellers has been due in part to gold becoming more valuable. gold sellers did exist before the squish, however nothing like now. Another 50% squish will only increase these guys, not decrease them, in addition, if the server is set on a gold reduction, do a more moderate one, 20% would be acceptable, and server to control inflation
If the 50% is carried out, not only will you fail to slow down gold sellers, it will only increase. they are kept in check by the increase rate at which we get gold. Not the increased difficulty. It will only serve to exacerbate an already growing problem....(supply and demand guys.....)
Just FYI. This is coming from someone that doesn't use gold, I don't have a massive stock pile, and have little to no use for it, seeing as I have 10 guild banks full of any material that I could ever need. Just wanted to throw in some reason to counter that to which is the insanity of this gold squish.
