Yea the server's economy is in ruins.

Basically one guild controls the server's economy, and they do so through rampant use of real money transactions.

1500pp for a skull shaped barbute? L-M-A-O

Your mom's face is in ruins.

Yeah. I'm being a troll. But there's no point in actually talking to Jon here, just like all too many people on these forums. I'd ask for proof of this TMO conspiracy to control the economy through RMT, he'd yell something about me being blind for not knowing it as fact already, I'd reiterate my initial request, he'd decide I am part of the conspiracy, then I'd call him a retard and get another infraction point.

SSB is an amazing head slot and when's the last time ANYONE has killed the ghoul lord, lol. They were cheap in classic only due to ssoy being a boss weapon, now they're circulated less and inflation adjusted they really haven't risen that much.

I dunno. I've just lost that spark. You buy a 60 of everything and you're like man, do I wanna go sit at Trak ledge? It's all so hazy :P Shame the sleeper server ended up being fucking terrible, maybe I'll try again later on Sleeper <_<

I think you all have the wrong idea. I remember on red where plat was useless. The only armor or items you could get were farming your self or having your guild help out. Remember this game was played with people in bronze gear killing in SolB. Just because you can not buy crafted items for 50pp etc does not mean the economy is broken.

[Stormhowl]

If the economy is "in ruins" and items are costing way too much (supposedly)...

Then doesn't this technically help YOU as items you can still get are proportionately inflated to some degree? Like Bone Chips, Spider Silk, Pelts, and the occasional rare drops you might encounter? Not to mention, other than the pelts, these things are incredibly light and found almost all over the world.

Moral of the story: hoard items that will stay in line with the economy, not 500k plat.
