• • Allow for only 1 blog post a day

  • The Blog system was great at first, but now it is full of fake blogs. It just looks like an advertisement window.

     

    What I would call real blog posters, don't post that often, so maybe the suggestion in the topic could help enhance the blog system.

• • the government needs to bail out SUV owners!@!#

  • I'm also against bail-outs.

     

    But think from a "selfish" point of view, about the impact that hundreds of thousands or millions of people losing their houses will affect the economy and your life.

    Banks will take over more houses and try to sell them, driving the real-estate prices further down; and crime might go up (when people lose a big percentage of their quality of life).

     

    I'm thinking about a state loan at a discount rate to help pay the morgage, while the crisis lasts.

    Although it also creates a bad incentive and is prejudicial on people who were more cautious and can make the payments.

• • Crafters: Which type of economy do you prefer?

  • and like eve-online, the newbish items should also be sold by npcs. That way, inflationist monkeys can't take control of the newb items market.

    It is important when you start a game, to have some stability by buying items at normal prices; instead of leaving it to free market and having the possibility of sky rocketing prices.

     

    Also NPC wholesalers buying items is ok by me, as long as they are bought at a very low price. That way you can always sell your junk (which might not happen in a total free market, if there were no buy orders).

  • free market all the way babeh :)

    I want 95% of all items in-game to be manufactured by players and players alone. And no simplistic AH system.

    It generates a lot of in-game depth and other ways to profit, besides the more standard ones.

• • AoC is nothing but a gank fest.

  • AoC is all about PvP and people shouldn't complain about it. Instead, get organized and do something about it (join a guild, get some friends to lvl together, try to avoid hot spots, etc).

     

    I can understand how constantly getting ganked can make the game experience suck for a player. This is where PvE servers should come into play.

    Instead of dissing PvP servers, try to get funcom to create PvE servers. No reason why both can't co-exist (if funcom so wishes).
