.net Economy Boost

I'm still formulating it, but we will sooner or later need to remove some grass/iron/dias from the economy in order to prevent inflation. Please come up with your best suggestions, if you disagree with mine.

Option 1 - Remove ALL Dias:
I'm not quite sure how we can/will do this. Basically, remove all diamonds from the economy. Excluding diamond affiliated items (such as diamond pickaxes) but including diamond blocks and placed diamond blocks. The diamond supply will have to come from donors. Increases value of iron and grass as everyone tries to trade their diamonds for grass and iron.

Option 2 - Taxes:
Players with grass in their inventory will be taxed every 24 hours, at a set time, for, say 5% of the grass in their inventory. CAN be avoided by putting grass in chests. If the player has less than 20 grass they will not be taxed anything. Rounded down. Takes some grass from the economy. Can be applied to iron and dias as well.

Option 3 - Complete Reset:
Suggested by Lycel
Completely reset Skyblock. Simple as that.


I'll come up with some better options as the thread develops.

 

No. .net has only been up for like 2 years it does not need a reset yet

 

I think I actually agree.

 

I'd love to see the day where a single sapling is worth 100 grass.

In reality, I'm sure none of us wants that, but sooner or later, that will happen.

 

I was trying to give an example...

Fine, then lets say a diamond pick worth 100 grass.

 

Ehhh no support~

First of all, removing all diamonds would make so many people mad, especially those who collect diamonds not rares, secondly... Taxes... Mheh no thanks~

I can't think of any good ideas to support this but if there is one I think would be good I will support~

 

.........Skyblock.net isn't an economy server. All we really needed was putting the diamond trades in /warp donor. I think that doing a reset would greatly harm the server because many players would quit. I think the tax idea is also bad. We don't need to forcibly remove anything. As I said, it isn't an economy server, and while I do realize there is an economy, the server isn't about the economy, and people need to get over it. You want economy? as Krissy said, go to org.

They will always be free for at least some people because they come in kits.

 

Please, I'm just trying to come up with an example here.... ;-;

It's not mainly an economy server, but like you said, there still is an economy that needs to be kept in check, in my opinion.

 

The players keep it in check. That's part of why I like it. No support. (p.s. if you want more diamonds out of the system, suggest some more things to trade for them at /warp donor. The price of diamonds went up when cyp added the horse eggs and quartz blocks.)

 

OH.

Lock the thread, someone.

I just realized. MC keeps it in check for us.

While we the value of grass, iron, and dias may be constantly lowering, when an MC update adds new items, it creates a new trade medium, providing that Cyp adds them in some way. These mediums can be tweaked in their value when they are added, so that people wanting to escape dias/grass/iron inflation can buy them. Therefore, these items value will not inflate as much as dias/iron/grass does. AND, it removes them from the economy when traded with villagers.

tl;dr: When Cyp adds new items, he can set the price, therefore allowing people to buy them for grass, dias, iron, etc., and this allows them to effectively escape inflation of said items.

 

Greatly spoken. .net is popular, and if you have a reset or remove items, people will NOT like it

 

Dude... Can you not? It's fun being the richest player. I don't want to lose all my rares. NO support. NO reset.

 

Honestly, I would prefer a server restart. I've suggested it in the past, and it was denied, but I would still love the idea of it. And I would enjoy a new donor400 item for 1.8.

 

Exactly.

 

I'm not saying I hate the idea but I don't exactly like it. Removing these said items would make some people very mad and we could possibly loose players due to that. I think that the economy has been greatly shifted from the past and what not but I don't think the server needs a reset or anything as it has only been up around 2-3 years.
