With POE 2.0 coming why not a new standard type server?

Have you considered HC? The "economy" should be a little more stable there than in standard. Mainly because it's "self cleaning" to an extent. ie; someone dies, all the equipped gear (in a real HC game) goes bye-bye, but here on POE it goes to standard. But either way, it's gone from the "economy" of the server you're playing on. And isn't that what you want, a bit of a "self cleaning" "economy"?



WARNING: The spoiler is purely my opinion. If yours differs I have no issues with that, but expect the same respect to my opinion as I extend to others.

The reason for the quotations on the word economy; I find the term an oxymoron in reference to trading on games. What we have here, and on every game I've ever played, with trading involved, in no way, shape or form resembles an economy. It only represents a greed driven pricing system. Why do you think the Fed. Gov. of the USA has someone that can directly change the prime lending rate? Because without someone at the top pulling some strings, you end up with greed taking over, and people sitting on their money as a result! And absolutely no game developer I'm aware of has ever taken an ongoing active roll in pulling the strings to keep it stable.

I actually believe in EVE has an economist on its staff. Could be a myth though lol

Again i'm not advocating to replace standard just a economically clean alternative not a dump league. Anyone else enjoy the temp league that was extended to 6 months?

Thoughts?
