Recently with that last update that was extended a few hours Nexon delt with some of the gold farming bots. Now it is very apparent nearly all of the people who used to buy gold have no access to them. We are starting to have deflation on server. I can't sell any of my rare items anymore. It looks like Alexina was home to a TON of lazy players who never grinded to buy anything. Just bought gold.
For example:
Synthed Gothic Punk : Was 10-12 Mil Now 3-6 Mil (and no ones buying)
Executioner Sword: Was 8 Mil Now 3-4 Mil (still not buying)
Smithed Dustin Swords:Was 1.5-2 mil Now 1-1.5 (also still not buying)
Lion Hunter Enchant:Was 1.5 Mil Now (had to save it on a dagger best offer was 600k)
I am absolutly amazed at the amount of people on our server who were dependant on GOld buying. New that we had a few but not to the extent that it was actually the driving force behind the economy.
At the same time I have to rethink how I make money. I deal mostly in rare items that go for 2 Mil + now it seems no one can afford those things. And the effort/money involve makes getting those rares at new prices not worth it.
Just Amazing....

I know people that bought 4m a week or someone that bought 100m... Well I'm happy that there aren't many bots around xD

So now my hard earned 30ish mil from almost 90%+ merchanting is actually worth 30m and not nothing because some guy can go buy 100m in 5 minutes?

Lol, sad thing is, even though I've never bought gold from a bot, I know almost all of the sites they sell off of. >:

Well the bots arent all gone but for the last week based on my sales and the sales of most of my friends people do not have access to gold like normal.

If you don't know where to get gold then you either did a good job ignoring bots, or you don't even play mabi.

I've seen the bots, but I never thought it was actually true. I always figured it was all scams. And now I hear it's actually authentic? :O I've been wasting so much time grinding and losing more money than I make... it can all change now! :D

What are you even going to do with that much money? Gold doesn't have much value in Mab, it's not like most other MMOs where you need good equips. I don't think it's worth spending rl money on Mab money. Not to mention that gold sells ruin every game they touch.

There's something specific I want for reasons you wouldn't understand. And I'll never afford it at this rate. THIS IS MY ONLY HOPE. ._.
