O_o just woah ['03 MC's are .... ]
According to this;

Regarding MC's, the situation is much more centered towards the fact that more and more Gaians get to have more gold to spend, while the supply of old MC do not go up. The number of MC in banned account is just a fraction of MC's that are floating in the market. What will really stabilize the prices are the ideas towards re-releasing older items. Though we can only go forward with those ideas if it doesn't impact the value of existing items by too much. It's a hard balance but we'll get to that also.

That's a great idea. At the same time a lot of users are afraid that when their accounts get hacked, we might accidentally start selling their items, among other concerns such as whether or not it's a legitimate act.

We had came to the conclusion that there are enough users who want the older items that we definitely want to make the older collectibles available again. Though emptying out banned accounts or re-issuing similar items and making them available through quests or lottery, we'll definitely make a way that is fair for everyone. For now we have a few other features in priority, but note that it's something that we will introduce sometime later.




We MAY be getting 're-releases' of '03 items someday....?

I really hope I'm not reading that wrong!

Yep, rereleases it sounds like. After Lanzer swore to never do it. Mixed feelings on it really. I'd like a halo but I don't want every single noob with one too.

Yeah it's true... It would really kill the exclusivity of a lot of '03's and yet I don't think they should ever have hit the millions upon millions of gold they are worth.. it's all a bit Catch-22. People are running up huge debts donating cash to Gaia in their quest for these items, yet they have become status symbols.. that'll all be ruined if they're mass released.

Seems Gaia is going back on a lot of decided issues....
