I've been wondering..
 

If you guys love "economy" like you say you do...why the hell are you playing 2k1 right now? Its funny I read all this about "economy" is better don't get rid of "economy" yet you guys don't even bother playing the server. Wow fantastic.
I hear Roleplayers telling me that 2k1 is best for roleplaying...its natural for them not to play because they can't roleplay there because its not suited for it right now. But then I turn around and suggest roleplaying in a large scale to suit these roleplayers yet I am rejected from people who scream "economy" but they don't even play the server. Tell me why you guys are not playing the server you love so much which has to do with so much "economy?"

I, for one, don't play because there is nobody else playing.
It's a big chain reaction, see. Because nobody is on, nobody plays.

So
That means "economy" doesn't work because nobody sticks around and plays.

Well..the economy is already screwed. So it's not like people playing right now would help much.
Also, you can't really say the economy is good with no one playing.
Something needs to be done to get people playing again.
My idea
Reset the server. again. It's messed up as it is now, which is why no one is playing. Resetting the server fixes the economy. But you have to keep it fixed, which means make sure everything that gives gralats is balanced with the reset.
Things not being balanced is what screwed it up this time.
Also, bomies and phs can't be auctioned off so soon, and so fast.
The hats that are there should be cheap, but not a small amount of the hats. No "5 gralat hats, but there are only 2 of them" things.
I think this would help. And then any other ideas that are added in.

You'll end up with the same crap...it won't work

Neither "economy" nor roleplaying can exist unless the server has a considerable playerbase.

That may be true but "economy" doesn't keep the people playing.

Neither does the roleplaying.
People say they had much more fun RPing on Graal Bomy Moon so why arn't they all playing there where they had a good time RPing?

Because the arrogent Graal Bomy Moon Staff are throwing more "economy" into it than roleplaying.....theres hardly anywhere you can roleplay at, aside from the kingdoms bases, which isn't truefully enough.

Because kingdoms keep getting removed and added.
:whatever:

I'm not RPing there because nobody else is RPing there...

I would like RPing, but no one else would RP with me. I would like buying and selling, but no one else would buy and sell with me. Both work together, to form a playerbase. Ghostie, stop trying to turn 2k1 into a val-remake :|

I'm not turning it into a val-remake, I'd turn it into a good RPing server...but I guess none of you want that...so maybe I should just forgot about 2k1 and let it sit there and rot, seems like what everbody wants to it to do.

You know, there are other kingdoms to join besides Pirate Crew.:\

No pirate kingdoms, however.

True, but he doesn't need to be in Pirate Crew to RP with the personality of his character. If he really had to be a pirate, then he could join another kingdom as a member of the navy or something.

I'm not saying that there should or shouldn't be a pirate kingom, however.
