Inflation in UO

Ok, so I finally got back online last night and spent some time wandering around Great Lakes.  It's pretty dead there, but what struck me was the prices of things.  I have about a million gold there and found that wouldn't buy me a rubber ducky!  My goodness how the inflation has gone rampant!

Heck, even 100m doesn't really help in UO anymore.  I do feel sorry for the noob that just discovers UO.
Please read the ScriptUO site RULES
Come play RIFT with me!

Yeah there are a couple of guys in the guild I am in that each have over a billion gold. ???
"The most preposterous notion that H. Sapiens has ever dreamed up is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharine adoration of His creatures, can be swayed by their prayers, and becomes petulant if He does not receive this flattery. Yet this absurd fantasy, without a shred of evidence to bolster it, pays all the expenses of the oldest, largest, and least productive industry in all of history."   Lazarus Long

"The second most preposterous notion is that copulation is inherently sinful."   L.L.

UO have same issues as any other online game.. Mass income of Currency and less use. Hope there will be a break of curse in future, else i dont see how newbies can participate. On the other side you still can make some money in shame.. a friend with almost nothing made 200 mil on level 1 by bashing elementals with 0 luck :D
