it takes gold out of the game making the gold in the game more valuable

What would the money be used for? Seems pointless to me

The money is to keep the rich from getting more rich and the money ingame needs a place to go. We have over 100 players with over 20m GP and they just make more and never spend... Need a sink to keep the economy stable.

im confused about what this means like a ge that will charge tax on transactions?

Or hell why not make the clue scrolls a gold sink. Find a scroll do the shit and opening the chest at the end costs gp.

less gold means higher prices for items...come on now think about it.

Id ask if you're fucking best friend but I already that's a yes.

Thanks for your feedback

Well you geniuses forgot that people can still trade tax free...

A tax on AH usage will just deter people from using it, which then causes less people using AH, which then makes AH useless and makes having an AH pointless.

Want a gold sink? Introduce lottery system

+1 failure to taxing the AH

Right, so every other online game with any form of a trade hub or auction house, products of billion dollar companies came up with this, and do this just to piss off the enudacted part of their customer base?

What do you think the central banks of the real world do when they "regulate the money supply". Thats right, they take out money or create more money to adjust inflation rates. the principal is no different here

This is just an online game, take your real life economics and shove them up your booty. RS economics is not the same as real life.

We create new gp all day long every single day, and with 0 gold sinks in the game, it will simply mean that more and more gp will pile up, not actually making anyone any richer than they are now, but simply means the relation of gp to items in terms of value changes, to the point where thieving, high alching and picking up drops become entirely pointless activities.

You're right that we do create gold all day (thieving, high alch, selling shit to game stores) but guess what else is coming into the game....resources *gasp* resources are keeping gold in check cause more high value resources are entering the game than gold per day. GG

If every player has an average of 1b gp available, it would simply mean every swordfish would cost 25k gp instead of 650, etc. but the actual value would still entirely be supply and demand based.
or if there was a total of 5k gold in the entire game, a swordfish would simply cost 0.000004 gp each, etc.

Lol'd and does the average player have 1b gp available?

Should we create a rune item sink too? since fire giants drop rune kites like every 10 minutes. lol'd

Bodied him.....
