Wait... hold up..... how is the gold squish a counter measure for gold hoarding?.... What does hoarding BoE gear have ANYTHING to do with gold fluctuation at all? o.o
No the gold squish is to keep it relatively fair after gold drop rates change. Gold drop rate reduction is "to further accommodate the concept of blizz-like and improve overall players' enjoyment". Has nothing to do with gold hoarding o.o The economy gold fluctuation is based on drops, quest awards, gear fixing, crafting, enchanting, reforging, buying and selling stuff to NPC, tax on AH, etc. Gold moving from 1 player to another does not affect the aggregate amount of gold in the economy.
So... Im not sure what you're ranting is about :/ please help me understand.
The only problem I have with the changes is profs going to 1x... That's going to hit the server and playerbase hard.
No one is talking about guild reserving (also most guild leaders tend to use BoEs to farm coins for themselves), people are ranting about pugs.
