    Really, aside from the "waaaah mommy, I won't be a special snowflake anymore sniff" argument from the current 1%ers, I can't see a single negative impact of the introducing of tokens. And a bunch of positive ones.
    There are at least 6 pages full of negative impacts implementing a system like this could have. You choosing to ignore them and restart the argument doesn't make them go away. With that, I'll be ending my participation in this thread as I don't feel like hopping on this discussion merry-go-round again.

    Actually, the only argument you yourself brought to this discussion is the "I won't be a special snowflake if ppl buy their way into the economy with IRL money, it's unfair, mommy". Rephrased in a number of ways, but essentially this.

    Most of them incorrect and predicated on a failure to understand how the system works and how the in-game economy works.
