Unfortunately Slide makes the same mistake many of us make when discussing farming, plat transactions and duping. He equates them. They aren't at all the same. Duping harms the economy by creating gold and flooding the economy with it. Farming for gold and items adds the gold and items to the economy at the highest rate allowed by the game design. It doesn't harm the economy. The economy allows for it. In fact, the economy was designed with farming in mind. Spawn rates, body drops are implemented with the understanding that farming will occur.
