We need more ways to make gold in this game.

So much fail in this topic. the OP raises very good concern since as it is the economy is losing more than gaining, then we have people saying i make enough money through farming and yet not seeing as that has 0 relevance to the issue at hand. you farming and getting money from another player is actually still losing money in the economy because of the AH cut. the issue is that (repair, travel, AH cut etc) > (money generated at end game from NPC and World)

the people raising this have no issues getting money from other players but they are showing how this will lead to a place where you cannot sell stuff and even repair because people wont have the money to do so anymore.

Gold ores can be gathered in Eastern Thanalan with Miner for all people who want more gold.

3000gil/day from Leves.

About how many Leves/day are we talking here?
3000 gil would be 30k Gil in 1.0
A high level Leve in 1.0 gave around 7k gil
This would be 4-5 leves, am I right?

I think the amount of Gil coming in the economy is now more balanced than in 1.0

[Reikland]

Really, the fast way to fix this would be to give us more Leve allowances and up the gold from dungeons and FATEs OR decrease the cost of repairs, travel, etc. In fact, an increase in the amount of Gil rewarded may cause too much inflation, no? A decrease may be in order!

As long as what enters the world is proportional to what leaves we should be fine. The over all pie can't get smaller it has to at least stay the same.

Frankly, the amount of economic illiteracy being shown in this thread is really starting to scare me here.

Folks, we're talking MACRO economics here, not MICRO economics.

You could have asked the same question in FFXI. Couldn't vendor anything, quests didn't reward you, etc, yet it took around 4 years for the market to hit peak gil saturation before SE started anti-RMT campaigns.

It was a dollar per mil Christmas day 2008 if I remember correctly.

FFXI had so much ways to generate gil. Heck, even killing a level 2 Orc gave you some gil.

Beside that, i have to completely agree with the OP. Money is more spend than actually incoming. This needs a fix.

Not true at all. There was only one way to generate a reasonable amount of gil in FFXI, and that was fishing. (generating gil, not generating items then selling them to other players)

People just whine about gil because they're used to gold being easy to obtain and being virtually worthless. IMO it's nice when in-game currency is actually worth something.
