0.25 Gold Price Barrier lowered on EU?

well what can i say, so stupid of blizzard to do this, stupid x2 doing this ninja-style, without announcing.
 
Remember this kongor guy with his 30 billion gold? He thought he had 10k euro, dreams getting raped ;)
 
It seems that Blizz finally found a way to get rid of botters. Instead of hitting their account with ban waves they've hit their vallets (PP accounts). They've just removed the profit incentive.
I was expecting this actually - in August they've already done this, lowering a minimum price for gold from 2.5 to 0.25 for 1 mil. Nobody was buying at RMAH for 2.5 because 3rd party was offering 0.6-0.75. The same thing just have happened now.
I just didn't expected that the lowest margin will be so low. 0.02 per mil is quite miniscule, even for Chinese it must be low.
Not sure if the new gold sinks will be able to rise the prices to previous minimum...
 
i cant beleave this shit is really happening.


i feel like i was raped
 
ye right now is the time for buying :)
,
maybe some insane patch or expansion can fix this crap, but for now, profits will go way down

but blizz decidion makes sence, might be good for the game.

now its free-world, open-market, self regulating economy

which is pertty much ok, capitalism based economy
 
This news is WORSE than a bloody banwave! Only a matter of time for it to happen on US then...
 
Some of my thoughts...

1. Blizzard will have more profit out of this change. It is much more easier to sell and buy via RMAH. I think they just hammerd down 3rd party sites for selling gold :)
2. It is too soon to tell how D3 economy will look like in future. IMHO new gold sink thing is not enough. I think that gold AH will not change that much but prices on RMAH will go down.
3. For legit player to buy middle range gear it's almost imposible. Since avarege person can't afford to play 5h or more per day, the gold income is to small to afford 50 mil per pice equipment. Plus the game is boring as fuck after some time.
4. If the legit player can't afford to buy for gold will he buy for $ ? If the prices on RMAH get down than YES. Blizzard makes more profit, good items are available for avarege Joe ;)

In other words I think that blizzard is trying to make dolars/euro a main currency ingame. Theres a saying where i live: it is not hard to make a 1000$ profit from one person, it is hard to make 0,01$ from bilions ;) And this is what blizz is trying to do via RMAH.
 
you fine ladies and gents who have been making a killing should just buy it.. ALL and hold onto it on a non compromised account, if i had the ability to use the eu rmah (damn locked to US) i would be grabbing it all
there is no way in hell it will stay at 1-3c

That is the great gamble you see, to buy billions or not to buy billions. At 1c/mill that is 20 euros for 2bill gold.
 
It stabilized at 0.10, which is curiously similar to price at 3rd party sistes, i guess our chinnese friends have arrived.
 
if this is implemented in the US its GG for us, just imagine if you sell 100m to $.01 a mil = $10 minus 27% tax your profit = $7 hehe plus electric bills and accounts that get banned = no thanks.
