Wtf...how did a discussion of multiple characters morph into ways to make
reincing cheaper....that is an even WORSE idea...as much as i would love it.
Let's be honest, there has to be some 10m of cash that gets generated in this
game every week. The only SIGNIFICANT way to keep that amount down is by
charging for reincs. Seeing someone reinc every fucking week is just
gay...doing something like that should be reserved to players who can play all
the time and make lots of money...players like shar and OTTIE!!!!!!!! Imho,
keep the reinc system as it is, people just want more fucking candy
here....BITCHES!!!

Wouldn't people reincing weekly take about the same amount of cash out of the
game?

Really that's total bullshit. I bet 9.5mil of that 10m is generated by
minmaxers who haven't reinced in 9 months., if not longer. If you cut reinc
costs (cash) in half, there is a significant portion of this mud that will
reinc twice as often. Your minmaxers will still be raping cash/eq mobs, and
the reincers will be spending every fucking penny they have and enjoying it
twice as much since they get to reinc more. The cash flow stays the _same_.
Think first next time please.

The multiple characters morphed into cheaper reinc topic, because that is
basically all it is! People want to play something different and that isn't
possible with the severe time table tax and expensive guild level cost with
reinc'ing. Unless you are part of THAT ELITE 5% that gets 90% of that '10m of
cash generated every week.' Hell no, Shar, Rocker, Imperator, and you don't
have a problem with money, because you guys A) make eq and sell it B) have a
stranglehold on other sources that bring income (regions) C) Just play so damn
much that it doesn't affect you. 50k/hour * 6 hours a day = not a problem.

This has more to with casual players than YOURSELF! Remove your ego from this
conversation and you'll see cash runs is all some people can do. They don't
have a pray to make eq and sell it. So, they have to scrap by one running
Drawbridge(and other cash areas) ALL THREE HOURS they are online just so they
can save up cash to reinc.

We aren't saying make it dirt cheap, but a lower tax table and guild cost
would give a solution to the multicharacters also. The way the system is
right now, it basically forces people to horde their money, because it's so
damn expensive. Why not go with the Wal-Mart theory, lower prices = more
business! So, in the long run, YES! More people will spend more money! (yes,
SOME will still wait 3-4 months in their reincs, but how is that different
from now?)

I don't even think the tax table is a problem for most of them -- the cash is
nearly always the rpoblem. I often get "loan me 100k so I can reinc"
questions -- never have "run me some exp so I can reinc" questions.
