Well, this should pretty much sum it up

10% sales cut
The problem is however that the inflation is literally non existant, we might even have a case of deflation where more money is removed from the system than is generated.
On the first glance this is no big deal, but when we look at it on a bigger scale things start to look REALLY weird.
Right now 1 gold is a lot of money. Gem prices are somewhere around 400gems:1gold.
Still not a big deal.
When we look at this from the real money standpoint though this starts to become really really strange.
Since 800 gems through RMT cost 10€ we have a price of 2g=800gems=10€. This is stupidly expensive.
Bank slot and character slot expansions cost around 1.5g which is easily farmable in like no time. Since RMT is the only way for arena net to gain income from a player after the intial purchase this is a massive deal.
Also farmers and botters are magically attracted to this, since a bot can easily yield a farmer 50 bucks a day. And farmers are known to run more than one bot at a time – sometimes even thousands.
Something drastic has to happen to this whole economic system, or this game will be flooded with botters in the near future.
People in pvp grief, exploit and bot the living kitten out of everything, and you can’t do anything about it.
Very smart decision to hide the player name aswell.
