    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Network Wide
    Short title for your suggestion:
    Doubling of President+ Rank Prices
    What are you suggesting:
    Doubling of the price of Tycoon, Ecoleader, Ecomaster, and Ecolegend
    Tycoon: 1 mil ECD
    Ecoleader: 2 mil ECD
    Ecomaster: 5 mil ECD
    Ecolegend: 10 mil ECD
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    Currently ECC is undergoing a period of intense inflation. The endgame ranks are too easy to achieve and more players than ever are ranking up very quickly. Wealthy players are able to make several times (I make 16x earnings what I would have a year ago) as much money as previously and this is causing inflation. Would also provide a money sink for the server to balance inflation somewhat. Personally I would like a much more steep rank curve but that would probably be rather unpopular.
    Other information:
    This is attached to my other suggestions "New Rank after Ecolegend" and "Replacing of SG prestige"
    Plugin or custom addition:
    N/A
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    +1 Ranks should reflect effort, these current prices at least partially ensure that obtaining a rank is an actual goal that requires significant investment and time.
    Inflation has increased prices at least 100% as confirmed by the admins by increasing forums transfer prestige requirements.

    Why only double those ranks? with the economy now, all ranks can increase in price.

    imo 3-4x would be more fair but I was going with a more conservative approach here. the reasoning for the bottom ranks being unchanged is that income for newer players has not increased by 10-25x like with rich players but only 2-3x at the bottom. I could be persuaded to suggest that, though.

    We won't be making this change at this time due to future plans.
