GC buying/selling - PK is unrelated; So say the official forums moderators.

I really could care less.

They run them forums dictate what suits there personal opinions anyway rather than the community as a whole.

It's pretty sad really. Learner asks what we think about gold trading, then we arent allowed to answer.. PK and irl trading goes hand in hand, I really doubt mixers are buying even nearly as much gc as the pr0 pkers..

Aislinn really love her function as dictato.. errr admin.

well it has been like this for like 4-5 years... you'd think maybe some of you would learn, you can't ever make the game better, you have to let ent ruin it, get pissed when people complain, then eventually change it back.. and start work on his next crap update.

The problem is, pkers make up about only 15% (max) of the EL population. I doubt if it is even as high as 15%. Ent needs to keep everyone happy..which is impossible. I did manage to post a while ago that pkers are the only gc buyers, Dont remember the pr0 full time potters ever looking to buy 1million gc's on unoffical formums here.

Quims idea is a decent one..

1 $ rostos may be a good idea.

Plat coins bought from shop and used with npc to buy Shop only items. Make them tradeable in game of course.

Soft reset for a fee (dont loose all your Pickpoints/hydro nexus) I would pay 50 bucks for this. I bet others would also

I think we all have suggested some good ideas.

And the post deletion continues.

Post #15 by PaulB contains an excerpt from an interview with a lead developer of another MMORPG.

Infamous and myself replied quoting the following part of that excerpt:
Interview with Imre Jele - Runscape lead developer
posted by PaulB
And one option available is to simply make your experience so much fun that no one feels the need to "cheat" the grind in the first place.

"To be honest, I think instead of real-world trading, games have to be designed in a way that they provide enough fun while you are getting somewhere; if I am incapable of providing you with enough fun while you collect that 1000 gold for a steed, then the game is not good enough," concluded Jele.


We simply stated that we highly agreed with the above quote and that it was very well said.

Posts poofed now. Guess agreeing with topics we feel need attention is all too much.
They should remove "beta" from the splash screen and take down the forums if they're going to act like this towards people who tell them things.

EL doesn't suck.

Some of the recent changes may but the game as a whole is really good.
Meh, get back to me after you've tried WoW...

I don't know why anyone bothers giving suggestions - you know they're going to not listen, have a tantrum, then make some change that's completely retarded.

To be fair, Aislinn is no doubt only doing as Learner asked.

the article from the runescape guy is right on the mark

people have mentioned the fun factor lots, imho too much in EL is geared towards money sinks and plain old grinding

and also , while im in the right sort of mood im going to put it simply like this :

the mini harvesting events was a fucking lazy way of dealing with GC selling , it fucked EVERYONE in the game instead of targetting the issue

still see lots of GC sales going on here, but less players on EL :headbang:

Definitions of game on the Web:

* a contest with rules to determine a winner; "you need four people to play this game"
* a single play of a sport or other contest; "the game lasted two hours"
* an amusement or pastime; "they played word games"; "he thought of his painting as a game that filled his empty time"; "his life was all fun and games"

Exactly. The moment I need to actually do something else to provide me with entertainment in a game is the moment the game is no longer worth playing.
anyone who doesn't get the orwell reference should read more.

in fact there seems to be a hilarious inverse relationship of GC sales increasing, and players online deceasing ^^

Mini harvest was good enough I guess, atleast they DID something for a change.. Then you can say it was overkill w/e but it no doubt made the life harder for the tit farmers in WC cave.. Along with everyone else.. :)

GC trading isnt really a problem, but it is unfair since some peoples gets huge advantages over the ones that doesnt/cant/cant afford buying gc, plus the farming brings inflation.

But off course this isnt what the devs are bitching about, the main logic is that gc selling makes EL shop sell less... Which doesnt affect us at all.

Radu loves capitalism, welcome to the freemarket. Players pwn the centralshop in rates, they win. Either you act or you accept the fact, admins is doing none.

fucking everyone in the ass equally hard is not the same as taking a little longer to get to the root of the issue

thus not having to fuck anyone at all , and hey even POSSIBLY MAKING THE GAME MORE FUN AND NOT LESS FUN

and then possibly just POSSIBLY
Spoiler: click to toggle


but how many times has everyone heard :
