In the end, I just want a system in place that promotes an economy that is going to make people want to participate. At present I see things getting exponentially worse. You can say what you want about economic theory, but the goal right now is to attract people to this game. I've made the current system work for me, thats not the point. I want people to love this game so I can continue to play it. Unchecked botting, a bogged down UI etc tells people that they should play something else. I'm not trying to start a fight. I'm just a player who is finding less and less of an incentive to craft and gather in this game every day and I think there are some very real and fixable reasons why. If you disagree and think things are just as they should be, so be it.

Does the economy really pull people into a game?
Im not asking to be a douche. I really want to know? I know we can't speak for everyone, but do you think many people are drawn in by the economy?
Do you think these people look for simplicity or a more in-depth, feature-rich, goal-oriented economy?

yes, i think this game has more potential for an engrossing supply side gaming experience than almost any other MMO to date. the've done a great job, which is why they should do everything in their power (which, as Winnipeg pointed out, isn't much) to defend and promote it.

You think it would be hard to recover it now? The economy is 19 months old now
