    In the past few months, the members of ECC have seen a large drop in diamond worth. i have thought of a possible idea to fix this, for what is Ecocitycraft without it's economy? i propose that ECC initiates a tax on diamonds collected once a month. the diamonds would then be destroyed or stored in AndrewKM's vault. the tax would be rank-based, so builders would give 1 diamond, residents would give 5, and so on.

    Or just sell them for $90 still. Trust me they still sell at that price, it just takes a day or so longer than the lower price diamonds.

    P.S. This belongs in the suggestion forum.

    This would be impossiable to administrate, and it's a bad idea.

    diamonds are not in demand like they used to be
    - the cost of repairing tools are much cheaper with more players donating for extcommands+
    - more competitive selling of diamonds in the expanded market area driving players to out price each other
    - consistent supply with mining world regeneration's each month
    - villagers in mining world providing large quantities of diamonds as trade items

    it's very easy to find trade signs in the market area with large quantities of diamonds at $35 each.

    easy way to revive the diamond market is for the server to (at least temporarily) allow /sell hand at something like $50 - $75 each to encourage the the current stock piles to be destroyed.

    $50 seems like a fair minimum price since fish are $50 each and you can easily catch a fish every 20seconds.

    Hmm.. if it took one guy being told that he couldn't crash the market I say we tell one person they can't raise diamond prices. >:] But seriously jus sell them higher. Taxes would suck. And what happens if someone doesn't have diamonds? o_O

    Or just remove the /sell diamond. That completely destroyed the already throbbing diamond economy.
