Economy balance discussion

[Emmie]

I just wish to say that alt farming was always a glitch and illegitimate way of earning money. I don't consider what premiums get, 1000 a day, to be alt farming. I mean when people made 100s of accounts to make tons of alts daily for money. This was not intended, and was a highly discussed issue back in the day, I know cause I was a moderator during that time. It was tolerated while a good idea was being made on how to remove it. No one is gonna get punished for having done it in the past. But it doesn't make the money they made any less unintended. I'm not trying to shame anyone who did it, I'm just explaining it out of the perspective of moderators and devs.

And yes, you could argue that MnF money is worth nothing, just like you could argue that any currency in the world has no value. But people using it give it value. Personally, MnF dollars have no value to me, yeah, but the fact that people are selling and buying real things using MnF dollars, it does have some sort of value. And inflation is when the value of a currency drops, and in certificate trading at least, the value of the MnF dollar has dropped, significantly.

Edit: I agree that there could be a nice middle ground for free and premium. But there's always gonna benefits to premium, since people need to be enticed to getting it. Could it be better handled than it is now? Definitely! I don't know how though, but I see some good ideas.

Edit2: I saw some mention it, and yes, money sinks. This game is lacking viable money sinks.
