ARR Gil Cap Reduction

[Matsume]

Matsume... they're not reducing the gil cap. They're reducing all gil values in game to 10% of what they are now. The scenario you spent on so long to write up has no relevance to this as it can be done with or without a new denomination.

Yay for people still not getting it.

Sorry to break it to you, but, even if i mis interpreted the gil cap reduction bit, the scenario still plays out. It doesnt matter if gil cap is reduced or not. The underlieing problem I highlighted is how the rich can easily take advantage of the poor and get even richer.

case in point:

The problem with this idea is that the economy is user controlled, no matter what kind of choke-hold they put on decreasing NPC's buying amounts the players will decide how much they want for something they farm/craft/re-sell.

Like many have said before, the have's will have a nice pillow of money while they have-nots will have no way to make enough to compete from the launch.. it will be like FFXI all over again right after international release Rise Of Zilart..

All you did was point out one misinterpretation as if it would make the rest of my post wrong but unfortunately the gil cap reduction or not has no effect on the scenario. Please reread it. And tell me what will stop the rich from taking advantage of the poor? So the gil cap isnt reduced, instead of spending excess gil on mats the just horde the excess gil what difference does that make?
