If anything the economy will level out to something more reasonable, when people don't have to save up for their Trak BP's and VS stones, they'll be less inclined to sell things at ridiculous prices.

As for no raids killing the server, that cons dubious.

Wouldn't the opposite happen?

If items like dragon hero bracer, trak bps, or vs greaves stop dropping, wouldn't the price on those skyrocket?

All other items would still be entering market at same frequency and probably wouldn't fluctuate in price much unless they started getting over farmed due to raiders needing something to do.

It wouldn't have any effect unless there were something shifting supply or demand.

I'm here because I like the game, not for nostalgia. I eventually want my epic, and I do like to raid occasionally. If I know I'll never be able to raid and I'll never get my epic, then I'll probably stop playing.
I don't expect them to leave the raid suspension in permanently, raiding is too much of the game for that.

Hey Fade, I'm in the exact same situation. I've got a level 55 wizard and a 50 shaman, I mostly just play when I'm traveling for work, and sometimes I'm in the mood to raid on the weekend.

I'll never get the chance to get my epic for my wiz-- ever, unless I give someone from a big guild a million plat.

I'm not sure what you're expecting Sirken, but what kind of agreement do you want? There are lots of us who would rather see nobody get any kind of raid mobs at all than come to an agreement.

Are you asking for consensus? Because it just won't happen.
Peace and quiet from petitions from poopsockers. Staff is enforcing a raid agreement because most of you raiders act like stupid children. Figure out your raid agreements, yeah you guys are going to lose raid targets more than you would like, but that's what happens in this situation.
