Taxes

[RickTheRuler]

Everyone knows we are suffering from inflation. The rich are insanely rich, the poor are ridiculously poor, and vT is virtually worthless now.

I have an idea that might help this problem:

Taxes.

I don't mean daily taxes, just tax between transactions. Charge a 10%-20% tax when vT is being transferred so the vT goes back to the server and out of circulation. The problem right now is that we have no way for vT to be removed circulation. This would solve that problem.

Tax would be charged when giving players money and buying from chest shops.

We should also have something that would be offered to us for a large amount of money, such as an server shop that sells valuable items in bulk.

It would be a long recovery but it would benefit the poor players because prices would slowly reduce again and would benefit the rich players because would still keep their vT instead of a vT wipe. I hope you guys take this idea seriously and support it.

There is rich and poor people in every society and then there is middle class. On innectis the reason there are poorer peope is because they have not been around as long, spend the Vt all in one go or don't kill mobs to get the VT or set up a shop.

Or you were online when the server shop was buying iron!

@luetzj Untrue, I have been here since the vT system was inplemented and my vT count, total, is about 565 vT, ever.

But how active were you? Did you sell items at the shop or sell items to player?

Already suggested this a long time ago straight to the admins, and just as always it was shot down almost immediately. Just letting you know, even if this does get support I would love to know how you would convince the admins to implement this.

There was a small amount of time where the server shot was buying iron, and many people sold their iron and got rich off it. Only a few knew about it, and I'm guessing you weren't one of them.

This was a suggestion discussed, the charging of transfers via things such as sign shops, however this idea could deter their use completely.
