Is the increased market fee affecting the inflation in tibia?

Question

The new market fee makes so that you can now pay up to 100 000 gps in a market fee, does this affect the current hyperinflation in tibia?

Comments

Nice question! I am not sure if it is creating inflation but I believe it makes it more stagnant. Let's see what other people say. :)

I do understand the reason, as people already commented. Did I like the change? No, I did not! All this battle trading stuff was fun for some people, myself included. For months I wouldn't even leave the depot, but I would log on everyday to check my offers and play the market. I got really surprised whenever I saw those new fees. Houses got to high as well. In my opinion, they 'fixed' these (market fees, house rent, golden outfit) to try in some way to take the money in some servers away from players. These changes didn't affect someone who is already a HL (1000+), but id did impact significantly low/mid level players.

Answer 1

I think the objective of this isn't about the in inflation around Tibia, in my opinion it's just to slow down the market since now will think twice before post an offer

Answer 2

We use to have a bug problem at the market in my opinion, people create a lot of offers and it makes the market very instable. For example:

1. I create an offer to sell a Gnome Armor for 80kk
2. Other guy create an offer to sell the same item for 79kk
3. Now I remove my offer and create another selling it for 78kk
4. Then comes the turn of the other guy who creates an offer of 75kk

This happened a lot, at least at my server, and one of the reason was the fee of 1.000,00gps. With the change, this kind of situation tends to decrease or even disappear.
