How can we revitalize trade?

[Jackard]

uh, actually I don't think paper money would work, codes would only work if everyone knew the codes and then they wouldn't work because anyone could forge them. Paper money would be have to be so complex to work that nobody would understand or trust it, therefor it wouldn't work. In retrospect it's a miracle the american economy has lasted as long as it did. But despite all this I would take a cheese backed coded parchment based economy over a coin based economy any day because although the parchment economy would crash the day it began, the coin based economy has always been crashed. Look at the posts from the begining, nobody has coins! This coin system works only for you and others with mines, for the rest of us it doesn't, period. Your opinions are only opinions and cannot be wrong or even bad, but neither can mine and in my opinion this would work better. How about you think of a better system that works for everyone, or at least a arguement against paper money instead of just U SUCK LOL.

the rest of you can rest assured that we have our top cryptographic experts working on this cipher and expect its hidden meanings to come to light any day now

excellent work, ferinex! we steadily grow ever closer to discovering the truth behind these mysteries

Dammit, how can I write a indignant reply if you guys are actually funny! In retrospect I admit this system is in fact retarded, but as I've said the coin system doesn't work because very few people have coins, I merely was trying to think of system that would work for people without a mine. If you don't like my idea could you actually make a coherent arguement against it?

Oh and just to beat you to the punch:

Translation: Why are you laughing? I'm trying to make a serious arguement! Why the hell are you laughing? Oh, screw it, in retrospect my massive bout of stupidity is actually hilarious.

Idea two: Mines are harder to aquire, but everyone can get mines.

Think the first mine was found within... 3 days?

We had the first mine within 24 hours of the restart.

We should use bread and other food stuffs as money. Instead of paying for something with coins, you pay with some other item. Like if you want metal and someone is selling metal and that person wants bread, you could pay them bread and get metal in return.

I think I will call this system "trade". I hope to see it implemented soon.

I mean look, money is fucked up in games because all the flaws of real money are brought to the evident truth. IE: It's fake and easily created. Unless you have a Government with some kind of agreement with other Governments (currency exchange rates), artificially imposing coinage doesn't work as anyone with a mine can simply run the economy by pumping out an unlimited (literally) number of coins. It only works if there's some kind of "set" NPC store where monsters drop gold coin and everyone can spend it for the next best suit of armour. Something that will never happen in H&H.

Wow, you guys are going incredibly off-topic.

Agreed. Topic split.

Welcome to MMO grinding addicts. First step is to admit it.
