I know it costs cheaper the more people use it. But maybe if the price change doesn't affect other players, more could use it and more gps can be returned.
Let's say instead of getting cheaper the more players use it, it gets more expensive everytime a single player uses it. He/She may get a skill level on reset so at level 0 gets to pay 10k, level 1 - maybe 25k and so on. Players gain a reset level everytime they use it.
Casual players doesn't get to log in everytime and can't monitor the reset price.

It already gets more expensive the more you use it. The first time gets cheaper as more people use it for the first time.

I saw million gp's disappear today off the top money list and the Dyer has not increased from his 198 million. Do people think that hiding their money will help them to escape a wipe. In fact that gives more strength to the argument that a full wipe is the only way to get everyone the same. If the Dyer is not unlocked buy the end of summer the sink fails and a wipe should happen.

Naive them. :) All money will be wiped out. Also I am going to check if low level characters has rare items. So have fun creating clones. I am too old for such tricks.

Oh yes i'm hiding my money try to find it! Dude i spent the money, thats what you do with money you spend it. The day before i bought 2 stat respecs, then today i bought an eye patch, Christmas tree hat, antlers, and some jeans. I then gave 6mill to Sugar, 1mill away in a quiz game. Then another million away in a scavenger hunt event.

Ditching your Gp to others and buying up rares does not solve the problem so if the 36 million GP you had does not go into the Dyer then the sink fails and you loose it all with a wipe along with everyone else.

I vote we just get it over with and have a wipe. Beats having everyone at each others throats over the sink. All the dyer sink seems to have accomplished so far is creating tension between players. Do the wipe and let us move on.

We still have to fix the system before wiping. Otherwise it would have been for nothing.

Very true. That's why I am not doing the wipe yet.

For your information, i put 11mill into the stat guy so i could re-do my stats. Was that not a money-sink also? How much money have you donated to the dyer yourself, to call everyone else out?

All my money i had was legit, from buying up rares and selling them for more. It took me months to get my money. Now when you match my 11mill and add more maybe then i'll donate some more gold.

Why do people try to justify their actions? You did what you did now its up to everyone else to cover the rest of the GP to the dyer. When the dyer fails then everyone should loose every thing because people are all ready trying to buffer against a wipe against GP only. Its not about how much one person gives because someone else would have had to give more and there are people who have. I speak because no one else will and I don't care what you say. So when Dev is ready I say take it all.

Originaljustin said “I gave about 50m to Cagemanz to keep for himself.”

Hommer said “True story. Grim, get on tmw.”

Even if you got your current gps in a legit way, as you said. You still owe about 39mill

It is not possible for a new joined player, after the bugs had been fixed to collect even 1 mil.
