Thanks for the link & response very informative & constructive! Still makes me a little curious though, like how much is sitting in this virtual 'sink' on any given day, does anyone or gm's get some of this since gm's control it? because I don't think there is any way a npc would need this much to pay out to people that are selling to them.
