I just realized that if nobody was a thief then u could do orange 4 star runs without a problem. If everybody did that then we would all be rich! So I am going to hang up my thief suit in my closet and never thieve again. Who's with me?! Tell me your thoughts on this idea.

P.S. I realize this would never happen, but if there were less thieves, even that would make it easier. So tell all your buddays and keep thiefs off Xian! (or whatever server you're on)

Even if this were to happen, it wouldn't last. Someone would see all these traders running around, and wouldn't be able to contain themselves owning them.

I hate thieving but that only thing that keep this game interesting. So I say no to your proposal. Unless Joymax change the game philosophy, which I think unlikely, in the European update so we can have PvP base on territory like WoW, the triangle conflict is the only thing makes this game worth playing.

That would be me, there is no way I could just let a bunch of 4* run around unchecked.

Everyone can't be rich. If everyone had a lot of money, there would be massive inflation. Prices would rise dramatically, so the whole point of having more money would be gone.

If everyone was "Rich" to US At the moment, all the prices would fly up, and then, we wouldn't really be "rich" Anymore would we? because then every time we got more rich, prices again, would go up, and we'd keep having to get richer, and richer, and getting to new heights of richness.

Economics =p

In the long run, prices for everything will drive up

...and people will then be forced to buy npc gear, cause a 4th degree and up will cost in the millions and weapon elixers will cost in the tens of millions >__< (maybe a bit extreme, but prices will definately go up, if everyone became a trader and 4-5* everyday)

ya i guess u all r right. when i posted this i was lvl 20. now i am close to lvl 25 and i have realized that it is not impossible to avoid 1* poppers. just use a horse and run! also having that orange healing ring thing helps. i havent done too many trade runs since i got lvl 2 trader b/c i found that i can make more money just selling dropped weapons armor elements etc. so untill im lvl 45 i dont think i will do too many major sets of trade runs. and also i think that would be sweeeeeeet if we could have pvp vs the europeans once they are added to the game. i cant wait!
