Proposal:
Basically I think there should be worlds where you can't use gold coins to gain an advantage in the game.
Have you Checked the DNS and PSI lists in the Archives? Is this idea similar to one that has been previously suggested?
I have checked, haven't noticed anything similar.
Reason:
-There are a lot of kids playing, who don't work and don't have their own money and can get trampled pretty quickly by paying players and that can ruin the game experience.
-Some of those who do work, can't afford to spend too much money if any on gold because of real life problems (bills, loans, various other financial problems), but would like to get the best experience out of grepolis because we like playing it. I myself am a student and although I do work parttime during the weekends, I use most of my paycheck to help pay the bills at home, otherwise I would gladly pay for some gold to be able to compete against other players who use gold and of course, to support the developers beceause I love this game.
Details:
Just a regular world, same mechanics, but without the option to use gold.
Visual Aids:
none
Balance:
I don't see any balance problems with this idea.
Abuse Prevention:
Since it won't change any other game mechanics, I don't think anyone can abuse this.
Summary:
-I understand that one reason why some wouldn't want this idea is because through buying gold we support the developers, but I don't think this will cause an issue because there will still be a lot of worlds where you can use gold and those who are able to afford paying for it will still join those worlds.
-There is also the fact, as was explained to me by a moderator, that if you are active enough to farm every 5 minutes and attack the bandits regularly etc., you will still be at an advantage, but of course many of us don't have the luxury to be constantly logged in and watching our cities.
