Umm I have to disagree.... as someone put if the risk is greater than the reward people probably wont be on either end of the curb. What is giving the real life value to plat? The LIMITED access to resource plat. If you make plat worth $5 per every 100k or 1 million plat.. I highly doubt someone is going to be buying or selling plat (or items) anytime soon.. Risk is greater than the reward... so it's possible..
This makes me irrationally angry that someone could think that changing the supply of plat will have ANY effect on the amount of RMT transactions taking place. The GM's dont *MAKE* plat worth a certain dollar value, players do that. Pretend you can buy 1k plat for $1, and with that 1k plat you can buy a.... I don't know, a bone chip. Now say the devs do something to make plat 10x easier to obtain. In Silly-Logic-Land that would discourage plat buyers because that 1k plat only goes 10% as far as it did before the change, so they would not want to spend $10 on it to buy that same bone chip. In Reality-Land, where Derubael lives, people would now charge 10k plat for the bone chip, and plat sellers would now sell 10k plat for $1 (having absolutely NO EFFECT on the illegal activities the GMs are seeking to eliminate.)
