New legacy economy
When i was reviewing the discussion about the want and desire to reset the economy to seek stability, i was asking my self a simple question.
Why not just create a gold cap per account?
You could set it to say 30 mil per account. The economy would adjust to the cap.
You could further diversify by adding copper and silver to spendable currencies and use something else for VvV.
This would prevent the need for the great cataclysm.

Second, a cap on gold would mean people would simply open EJ accounts up to store gold. In banks and in piles.
Edit: in retrospect, people having Scrooge McDuck-style money bins to hold their locked down piles of 60k gold greatly appeals to me.
I am sure broadsword can close economies off on new legacy shards, if they expand the system to non cataclysm shards. I am also quite sure they can write code to track newly inputed gold each day on a specific shard.

If they are able to keep up with events, control the economy and such, i would give it a serious go.
I further hope they do not destroy the character building experience qith streamline cookie cutter mechanics.

Never be afraid to challenge the status quo

Maybe we can transfer a fur jacket to our home shard to hang on the wall.

As for the economy. There are players who will try everything. They will find whatever makes the most gold very quickly and do it over and over. There will be players who have max skills in a few days, who am I kidding, a few hours.
We will have novels written about those two topics.
