    Agreed, ultimately it falls on the devs(who actually have the hard stats) to competently balance/adjust the economy.

    Eve is going on 10 years, and there remains no runaway inflation in that game despite the multitudes of huge currency faucets because CCP has done a good job balancing the in/outs.

    Yep, I definitely agree. The funny thing about EVE Online is that they are AFAIK the only MMO that has a Professor of Economics who is working with managing their economy.
