In approximately one week we will make the following changes to the rentable Market Stands in the Capital Towns.

• It will no longer be possible for the stand owner to withdraw items from the stand at no cost.
• The stand owner will be forced to set a price before putting goods in the stand.
• The price of goods in the stands will only be possible to adjust within the span of ±50% of the originally set price.
• The weekly rent will increase to 1000s.

The purpose of these changes is to end the practice of using the market stands as vaults, and to disincentivize the keeping of empty stands.

The purpose of this announcement is to allow current stand holders a chance to adjust their behavior accordingly.

pras!

Very good.

What about buying from stalls? ;_;

Great idea, but sucks for the owners that do it right..

Great opportunity to add more of them too

Oh, tragedy and woe!

On a more serious note, great change! Hope stalls get properly reworked so that the system doesn't favour players for the sole reason that they started playing earlier.

Great in general.

It's just sad that you have to use solutions that at first glance just make unnecessary difficulties and are somewhat idiotic just to prevent abusing the game, I can already see noobs complaining about it in a month or two.

Also while increasing the the rent price is a good idea you might want to consider decreasing the 15% tax to 10% or 5% so that stall trading would still be profitable.

Good change, but unfortunately I don't think this is going to make any new stalls open up...might want to add some new ones to keep the QQing at bay.

Anybody that owns a stall knows that stall trading can be profitable regardless of the tax, or weekly upkeep that needs to be paid.

actually it will turn a small gold sink into a small whirlpool - good for the overall economy
