The Problem.

[Temple Priest]

Yes, I had brought up this point around a month ago, the problem is that the newbies that join the servers, far outnumbers the veterans who truely understands what the problems are.

99% of all newbies would never choose to inflate the economy, they want to get their endgame stuff as soon as possible.
So after a bit of thinking, I had 2 plans in mind:
Either we enforce them through a trading system instead of having to do the usual /pay command and set a minimum for the prices that the sellers can set, or we force the players to sell their items they want to get rid of to the shop itself. The shop itself will no longer have infinite items and the shop sells those gear for a bit more expensive.

Also, we can never enforce an economy as long as people can drop stuff and /pay command exists.

ah, you see, but there is a major problem with that, the shop gets used probably more than you think... it would be nice if that worked for the items the shop didn't sell though, for instance the Terra Blade... as for people selling end-game items to newbies for very low prices, it is a problem but there's no way to relieve the server of it without eliminating the /pay system, or at least that i know of.. and that wouldn't just fix the newbie problem, it would also make everyone who is correctly trading absolutely livid...
As for newbies wanting to rush to the end of the game in 2 hours, that's their problem for wrecking the challenge of playing terraria with tons of other people
