Only people having issues with this update are gold whores who depend on quick growth and unjust bonuses that they dictate giving their gold to select few traders they make black deals with.
So the "dictating prices" by golders that you didn't like before this change-- that was due to the supply being much more than the demand... a proper economy adjusts the prices to fit, so people adjusted their offers to earn more business. What we have now is a logjam of players who sell res for their gold that are unable to get a decent price, or even to sell it at all as the banks are full... if not corrected, this will further drive players who rely on this trade from the game, which is bad for everyone. Siiiiiiighhhhh.
The gold spenders will be fine-- they can either pay friends on the side to join and feed them free res, or spend their purchased gold buffing up their own res camps more quickly to avoid the system... it's the non-gold spenders who lose out if this trade market crashes. This will only create further divide between the spenders and non-spenders.
I personally haven't touched it and don't plan to.
