Well my english is not very good but i will try to explain it... hope somebody can understand it^^
The prices are getting higher, yes. The people on the server have more money with time. Because they are farming it automatically.
So, if there is more money in circulation, the prices are getting higher. That hits every online game i played so far, no matter if it is free or not.
And as long as there are enough buyer, the prices will grow. I understand your anger, but normally the prices regulate themselve. Market economy :Grin:
