    The economy is dying. Reasons coming up.

    1. 100 donators get diamonds. Diamonds will slowly but surely not be rare anymore. (Too many 100 donators)
    2. Mob arena. Grass is beggining to get rarish to non-donators. It *seems* like iron god-items are beggining to get the main system for non donators.

    ... More reasons coming up.

    I agree the economy is not in the best state, but dying, I don't think so. There will be something to keep it up, whether it is a rich player banned causing all of their items to be out of the system, or a new trade opened up for a currently rare item, rending it near worthless (Such as Quartz), everything influences the trading system.

    True, there are lots of 100 donors. A LOT. But I don't think the economy is 'dying'. I think it could use a little push, that's all.

    I think you should downgrade to 10 donor. :t
    The donors do play a major roll in the economy on the server, but like I said before, I don't think it is a big deal.

    It's pretty well known that the economy is slowly decreasing in it's own being. There isn't much we, as players ​
    of Skyblock, can do. Mostly Admins (Cypriot) and owners (Noobcrew) can help. They make up the rules. However, suggestions can be made. Other than that, the best thing we can do is be active players, keeping the server alive, and make sure illegal trading isn't happening. It seems as though illegal trading and hacks are some of the many main reasons the economy has been getting worse, besides the decreasing value to items.

    As long as we are doing our best to keep the server clean, referring back to the hacks, illegal trading, and such, ​
    there isn't much more we can do. ~

    I'd have thought lots of 100 donors would have been a good thing for the server?

    Don't forget that a lot of players hoard their riches such as grass and diamond never to see the light of day, consequently impacting the economy less. I have noticed an increase in big ticket valuables lately, could this be related?

    It doesn't matter if there is too many 100 donors, they paid that money. I do not agree with the economy dying but it is getting slow.

    I wouldn't say the economy is dying per-say as it is more-so fluctuating with the increase of certain items, as well as other items becoming more scarce due to multiple reasons. Whether those be /ma J changes, or new introductions of donors, the economy will eventually balance itself out where the prices of items will stabilize for the time being, until something further fluctuates it once again. You have to imagine the economy as being like the one in real life meaning it has a rise and fall due to certain instances due to outside sources that influence it in positive and negative ways. If the economy ever were to "truly" die then that can easily be fixed by resetting certain items, but that is extremely drastic and hasn't had to be done except it rare cases and hopefully it shall never have to be done again.

    I remember when they were worth 140-200 grass. Now they are just a stack of grass.

    Wow... Even worse. Economy has slowed down a ton. I remember when iron was used just like grass is but not so much anymore. People don't want iron. They want grass or diamonds.

    Ye there would nearly be a 100 $250 donors and probably over 250 $100 donors atleast, adding 100's of diamonds into the economy each day. Soon people will be have stacks of diamonds instead of the days where it was a struggle to get full dia armour for /warp pvp and not many people had it.
