You should probably look at how long EVE has been alive (as a single server btw) and how long NW has been around. And then think, is it the problem with the economy system or literally the entirety of the rest of the game that is the issue. A small hint: it's the latter.

L2 also sold the barebones in terms of items and most of them were t1-2 low tier stuff, with everything else being purely crafted/dropped. And every item could be sold to an NPC for a set price, which created the pricing floor, but there was no ceiling.

And as long as most bots (ideally all) were banned, the economy on the server was quite healthy. The market in this video (each window above a sitting character is a player shop of some sort) is roughly 1/3-1/4 packed when compared to a really big server w/o bots. And there'd be 2-3 such markets across the server, or just one suuuuper packed one (x6-9 the size of this).

Yes, you did, that's the current design concept.

Even some of the nodes where you have the option to list things, you can't buy things.

Also, depending on what you DO buy, you may still have to go all the way to the node to get it.

We could ask for this to be possible, at least. The code for it wouldn't be terribly difficult, I think.

The failsafes and catches would be.
