Which would lead to a static market

Markets are also good for servers where people actually buy stuff. I don't know what servers you played on, but I have yet to play on a server with an electronic marketplace where the economy isn't just a gimmick

I know people whine when I do this, but I'd like to cite the real-world example of the Amazon predatory pricing controversy. Sure, they weren't selling books at $0.01 a book, but they are accused of selling books at unsustainable prices to force others out of the market. This kind of behavior could happen in Kiwike (and has happened before to an extent), and such behavior is encouraged by global marketplaces

Who said that the economy was intended to be global?

And they don't now?

This sounds like a personal problem


So, while I see where you're coming from, I entirely disagree with your argument. I never said that I was arguing for markets as RP, just that markets work better then global exchanges in Minecraft
