I wrote a nice post 1414 characters long but it fails to be submitted.

So I am going just to state that inflation looks worse to me than a gil lack. There are ways to make gil into the game. Even OP admits that leveling new characters does it. Since that it all boils down to wealth distribution between those who are willing to level new characters (or create gil in some other way) and those who do not.

Also, I want to remind that many opinions in the thread are biased, since those who are able to maintain cash positive balance are much less inclined to post their thoughts.
