So I have been on the server for a month now and have had so much trouble trying to buy what i need from spawn or from other players and here's why:
1- Item not available at spawn shop or market.
2- Players online don't have it and/or are not cooperating.
3- After finding that person who has the item, he's never sure of how much to money to ask for, and neither am i sure how much to pay.
Therefore, I believe some fixes can be made to maintain an ongoing economy, and make sure the money is holding its worth, that is:
1- Have an excel sheet (which I'm willing to provide a template for) listing all the prices for the most sold/demanded items on the server.
2- Have a huge shop land with a designated warp ( /warp shops), where players can buy plots (small, medium, or large plot) and build their own shops. These shops will auto-refill eliminating the need to constantly restock the market. And this of course will keep late game players around for a while because they want to see their shops flourish.
If this was accomplished it will definitely boost the server's performance, as:
1- People will want to buy more money, ranks, etc. since its worth is predetermined by the excel sheet.
2- Even if no on is online, you'll still be able to buy what you need. I mean, its only fair that you always find a source to buy ie. titanium early in the game. Regardless how many players are online.
3- Late game players will be forced to stay around because now they have an obligation, they are providing for the server!
4- New comers are always more likely to stay around when they know they have that resource security.
