Just throwing this out there, i know it wont have much of an effect but still...

less people with money will mean less people paying others to donate for them.  I have seen multiple people (including myself) paying others for donations. Might be a bit less money to the server if there are less rich people. lol i know this is a huge 'what if'
It might cause people to donate to get in game credits then

No it's not. : ( The reduced price on gold was bad enough.

I'll buy any iron farms people are selling.

Also, it would be cool if you disabled the afk kicker till then.  :)

Well shucks...there goes 40 stacks of obsidian down the drain. Ah well, I can still use the gold farms for my horses (great point, btw!). Mining is much more beneficial anyway. If you go mining and then sell what you mine, you make equally as much money. It might take a little longer, but it's fair and fairly easy.

I'm actually pretty surprised at the number of regular members that agree with this.

I had far too much fun reading this.
But it's about time

I support this decision.

and for those who are still whining, suck it up and move on.
you are getting way too dependent on the iron and gold farms.

Delighted to hear this news - Good move Nick!

I've always disliked the idea of being able to make shed loads of money from HUGE farms for very little effort..

Not only do they stretch the distance between the "haves" and "have-not's", they take up too much valuable space on the server and you've got to admit, they're pretty damn ugly too.

I support this decision...

It seems people have forgotten about the lottery system?

Iron farming made becoming rich less fun, of course you were going to get a lot of cash you're selling to an automated market... The arguements about 'trying to become rich' are bull. 'Trying' to become rich is by selling with other players, that way it's more exciting and fun as you don't know if you'll ever strike rich or not, I remember back when before Iron farms existed, many people were trading with each other for cash, it was a more friendly way of doing things, you get to know people by exchanging items, now THAT is what's fun and the point of minecraft: making friends... Anyone can build an Iron farm/gold farm and AFK to get a lot of cash, where's the excitement in that?

icooliam

Hm, so I just start using all my supplies on building an iron farm...

Right then people what can we make large farms for next? :P

Look at the sell price difference between wooden slabs and logs 64 logs sell for 50 and 64 slabs sell for 50. 

Also if possible add obsidian to market to buy and sell?
