Economy balance discussion

[Emmie]

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence for starters. The biggest sign of inflation, is that the devs added in the ability to buy in-game money. This was done at the price that was imagined for the game. And now, quite some time later, look at the price of the 2 bedroom house, or even the price it initially went for.

How big of a problem is the inflation? It's hard to say, but it does mainly affect newer players, cause they did not have a chance to use the illegitimate ways to earn money easier. And the ways you can use now can get you banned.

Edit: We are talking about quite large amounts of illegitimate in-game money in circulation. Majority of the money that is in circulation. That's not to say the person currently owning the money got it that way. But selling codes and auctions (the two main ways to make larger amounts of money) does not create new money, it uses old money already in circulation.
