This post is about 25 years late, but anyway: remove the bonuses that reward
players for not reincing. The game gives far too many advantages to people who
stay in the same reinc forever—reputations and all that scheisse.

Reincing is by far the best way to remove exp and gold from the game and keep
the eq market active. Make it a regular part of the game:

- Introduce a standard reinc tax, scaling progressively with total exp from 0%
up to, say, 10%.
- No free reinc pendants or similar shortcuts for idling on holidays.
- Remove all sources of youth: scrolls, drinks, tomes, soul rippers, eq, etc.
- Characters should be at their strongest until middle age, then gradually
decline.
- Adjust character lifespans so that aging pushes players to reinc, say roughly
2–3 times a year.
- No special auctions or stuff to go around first 5 points.
