In almost every society most sells tax's are around 5-8%. The 2% is so small it just wont have a big enough impact on the game to help out the economy.


Most players want the tax to be raised to above 10% but I think to curve the rapid inflation and get things back on track to really help players out all you would need would be a 5-8% tax.


edit: moved idea up here.

Another thing I have seen other games do is a grind tax. Basically you lose 0.1% of your gold every day you don't play. This would encourage a healthy player base coming back so their gold doesn't get taken out and only punishes the players who aren't loyal enough to play every day. Hey and if you want to take a day off its only 0.1% of your gold.

Its also a super fair tax because the poor players have less gold so would get taxed less helping them get ahead.

New players would be exempt for the first 100 days or till their bank gets to 100m as long as they are premium members.

Don't be greedy pay your taxes!

I have a better idea.

From the death future content post.

"General stores contents - Add more items to General Stores - This would consider more spending in a location players already spend a lot of money, but we would need to quadruple current spend."

We can more than quadruple money spent by selling the original party hats, santas, and h'weens in a general store. When the max cash update comes they can see the current price and forever cap them there.

You are out of your mind with the "grind tax". Why should people be penalized because they do not have the time to play daily? Sometimes I, and many others, go months between logins. There should be zero consequence for that. I would not have been loyal to this game for 15+ years if any such idea was a reality.

15 years playing and you only managed to get 22m exp.. realistically you would prob be more loyal with a grind tax.

I vote we just full wipe everyone's banks.


I read somewhere that most players want that, especially the players who own phats - they want it 100% gone.
