Well it’s not like the flezz is permanently gone, you still get a item people will pay 80 mil flezz for. if some bp things go up there is no way they could turn that back into flezz

The flezz is gone from the economy, though. It has gone to someone who will not spend it. The purchasing party may recoup their investment – or even more – but the economy as a whole is temporary 80mil lighter and one item richer. Likewise, unless the benefits of the item allow the user to grind noticeably more flezz out of forums, no new money is being put into the economy as a result.

It’s not about the individual player’s bottom line, it’s about the amount of flezz circulating, which has been reduced.
