Trophy/Silver Trade in Upgrades

[HardCore]

It appears that the trophy/silver trade in system ITEMS might need to be updated per the 2013 current economy. I'm not suggesting that we add/remove any types of rewards, just that we change the value of the silver it costs to purchase them. Looking at current silver prices (anywhere from 12k to 18k per piece) compared to the value of the items you could redeem with it, it seems a bit off.

Take the 100 silver beard growth/sculpting cream and name change deeds. Even having silver worth 10k per makes these items go for 1 million gold. Much different that what they really sell for. A black dye tub is another good example. With the same 10k per silver price, 4 million for the tub? Maybe I'm understanding it all wrong but we might be able to take a look at the current list and revise it to be more accurate, get some of the silver out of the economy, have reasonable chances to cash in on some items we might not normally be able to get, etc. etc. Just my thoughts...

I think this could be done as a community so not to burden staff. We could even nominate a "counsel" of players ex. Lightshade who are rare/item experts to take on the task.
