All donors that are very active in the community and vested in the economy. I would like to try an experiment. The only item I don't see circulating on a regular basis is Rotten flesh (for obvious reasons) so here's my proposal. Let's see if we can get Rotten flesh to become a currency. Of course it will be dirt cheap due to how easily it can be farmed but hear me out. We all farm the crap out of it. While doing so, we make deals with each other through forums and msging. Say, I'll say selling spawners, then ill get another donor to buy it from me without talking in messages, so everyone can see this derp just paid me in rotten flesh. Now of course you would return the favor in a real trade, say 3 or 4 diamonds, but you would wait until a different time of day and "sell" me those diamonds for rotten flesh, again, in public chat. We can also hold auctions and put the HB:xx grass or dias. But then! someone bids tons of rotten flesh, and you put that as the new highest bid beating out diamonds and grass. At first people will mock us and we have to be careful not to get too obvious but over time of conditioning people to think that Rotten flesh is a viable form of payment we can actually make it so. I mean, the US hasn't had the gold to back it's dollar for centuries now, but based on market values of what politicians and buisinessmen we don't even know and hardly trust say it's worth is what it becomes worth. If you'd be willing to do this with me comment below.
It's interesting how value is added to items. I give out renamed, god enchanted "Twitch Balls". Some players say they hold no value. Others trade them for diamonds. It is possible that value can be added to rotten flesh. It would take many public trades for this to be prevalent.
Anything can be a currency if you create demand for it. It's just all about making the general public see value in it. Even if there is none.
yeah, since net basically has a bunch of items people put value in, it changes the way people trade constantly. Grass will always be currency, but this would be funny to watch.
Yes! Definitely possible and will result in humour and confusion. I myself don't have a bunch of Rotten Flesh, unless you have a pet wolf it's virtually useless but it'd be very fun to try this. Although, I may need a 'generous' donation of Rotten Flesh to start me off
Sounds fun but why am I always broke in every currency e-e If being broke was the currency, I would be rich.
I would be willing to add into this if I still had my old island with a small house filled with double chests of rotten flesh. Still going to do it but I never trade and I own 0 rotten flesh
One time on the server, someone took what I think was a God book to /warp mob and smashed everything, so I have like 4 double chests of rotten flesh just sitting on top of my house xD
As long as this stays on net i would join in. I seriously don't want people to pay me rottenflesh for something on org But if i am honest it won't be enough to include only donors, it also needs a lot more people (greenies) and also rotten flesh is not really easy to get for greenies. (not even for donors) so people won't trade very much with rotten flesh. That means less trades under the greenies = currency won't work. Currency would only work if a lot of people doing it all the time. But i may be wrong, but that is my opinion
They don't really get deleted, mine is gone because it was griefed while Lockette was down and LogBlock was reset since that
