TOPIC: Jumping on the economy trend

This shows that the UK which has a population of 64.1 million (2013) has 80 billion of easily accessible money in circulation. Correct me if im wrong but from my understanding (bare in mind in an idiot) that an average person has around 1.25k in cash ready to spend, whilst other money is spent on items or back into the system in the form of taxes. This is just an average and of course doesnt apply to everyone. But zarp, which has I would say around 10 billion in circulation and "Total Users: 20459" has that many users on the forums, which calculates to 48k. Now the difference you can see is drastic, which is why people say there is such a "bad economy" its not bad, its just inflated, insanely inflated.

I suggest that to fix this "problem" is by creating a money sink in the forms of visual items like skins among other things, or if you dont want to do that, you could also just divide everyone's money by a 100 so people feel like they have less money, even though everything is exactly the same.

Also please respond with more accurate figures on the zarp economy or the real economy, because I found these numbers from 2 minutes of "research" and I have no idea about the economy, so pls help.

True, except that there's way more than 10 billion in circulation in zarp

I heard it's the Owners first week of running a community and they've never done it before.... Zarp just turn up over night and they have noooo idea what their talking about.

Im just giving suggestions and my view on it.

The only defence the owners or lead team come up with is we know what we are doing and you have no clue whats going on.

In real life economy is broken.

The UK economy is worth $2.849 trillion that's:

UK
Total worth: $2.849 trillion
$43,770 per capita
(per person)

By your calculations this is similar to the per capita worth of the players on ZARP which you calculated at $48,000. Bear in mind we can't calculate an exchange rate unless we make some assumptions so we cannot create an accurate comparison of the GDP measure. Other measure comparisons are possible.

By this calculation we can safely say the ZARP economy closely mimics a real one and is in a very healthy state indeed.

6months maybe a little more we made the prices and lowered the money and made it harder to get and a whole bunch of other shit and we still got bitched at because "It's to hard to get money boo hoo" I'm just going to be straight with you it doesn't matter how the economy is NO ONE will be happy.

Basic RP no special weapons - Half of the people happy
Special weapons - other half happy

Hard to get money - Half Happy
Easy to get money - Half happy

No mining - Shit job what a waste
Easy mining - Shit job what a waste


There is NO winning for us so we will continue to keep doing what we're doing until we see it being a problem. I'm sorry I used your post to rant but it just had to be said.

PS: half of the people that make posts like these are full of shit and have no idea what the economy is really like and I wish that I could burst their bubble sometimes so they can step down from being a know it all bullshit story making twerp.
