Thanks for your criticism. I am always looking at improving the game, but it's almost impossible to please every single player. You have mentioned the economy is in shambles, but what exactly are you trying to say? I cannot identify real issues with the game's economy. I state my point on data we have collected over the past year and charts everybody is able to view on the homepage.

My goal of optimizing the game's economy is to keep prices stable as well as the creation of supply and demand. We have a large collection of data for all trades on the Grand Exchange, let me show a few examples:
What all these plots have in common is that they have a pretty stable price. Yes, whips have increased in price since last year, but we've also introduced crystals to upgrade them. Meaning that these items don't lose their value and that they are in demand. You can argue that a smaller playerbase makes it more difficult to buy and sell items. Yes, I do agree and that's why I'm spending most of my time on advertising the game right now.

Some post here feel like frustration and hatred for the game. I've tried to argue and discuss such aspects, but from my experience this leads nowhere but even more frustration for both sides. Hence I will ignore such posts as well as possibly censor them and issue punishments if it's against the rules. I will take feedback and complaints seriously as long as they aim at helping the game and are not hypocritical.

If anybody is interested and doesn't already know about it, that's my personal development board:
https://trello.com/b/QGPVa5en/emps-world
The board contains progress and notes about upcoming updates and a backlog of things that are planned or have been discussed and could or will be put into the game.

Having a stable price doesn't actually mean anything other than that the market may be stagnant. In a healthy economy most used items like consumables should every once in a while have a sudden spike in price when some event motivates a lot of people to buy them and then a period where the price smooths down to a lower price as the supply catches up to the increase in demand when people start collecting the items due to the price increase and then as the price gets lower again the rate at which the supply increases should slow down allowing for another sudden spike in demand to cause a sudden spike in price. If that doesn't happen then it's a good sign that there's way too much supply and the demand is unable to catch up.

The spike in price should look like what can be seen on the Abyssal whip prices between 01.01.18 and 01.02.18 followed by the price slowly going back to what it was before the sudden spike. The goal should be to get more item prices to look like that and then we could assume that we might have a healthy balance of supply and demand.

Charr started with giving criticism on the game, and that's what every post afterwards has been, and thus everything here in on-topic. There is no point in creating another topic for the same exact subject.

Fair enough. Let it be. You, my friend, are ex-Forum moderator and you know it better.

You don't need a superficial rank on some rsps forum to have a grasp of common sense :LUL:

gonna post this one comment, because of the nostalgic feelings i have towards this game.

everything Charr said is true and in my opinion, a little bit understated. the staff team is an absolute joke, always was and always will be. HOSTING EVENTS WILL NOT DO SHIT IF SOON THERE WON'T BE ANY PEOPLE TO HOST THE EVENTS TO and recruiting people to the staff team because they're DECENT players who just do not break any rules is a bad idea. quality over quantity. let me elaborate - it doesn't matter how many people with a couple too many chromosomes you recruit if they turn a blind eye to half the shit that's going on in the community. Recruit people who have an outstanding record for editing wiki pages, writing guides or at least always helping out with the emps world chat for, at the very least, a few months.

A point that wasn't mentioned is that this rsps needs a drastic change. a few months back there was this hot discussion about adding an old school emps world server into the game and it ended with Thomy brushing off the project as being too risky. well, look where that got you. in the most recent emps world trailer, it was mentioned that emps has 100+ players, yeah, nice joke, last i logged in (a few weeks ago) it didn't even have 40 at peak.

in conclusion, either do something bold about the current situation or just shut down emps world overall and stop wasting everyone's time.

p.s was nice chatting with you charr, even though the chats didn't always end on the same note.
