    I've noticed an uptick in Smegas relating to selling GS2 maps, etc for millions of mesos. Can we have some negative reinforcement to disuade this type of negative game meta - similarly as we do for KSing?

    Hate to see people holding maps hostage for money and boasting about it in Smegas...

    Selling maps just encouraging people to stay there for a long time until a buyer will come instead of just giving it away when finished. I agree to this, especially with the last increase in player base so the places are even more popular.

    Agreed, map owner shouldnt be this literal. When you are done just move on and let someone else play you cheap SOBs :)

    I agree with this too. I know everyone having hard time making mesos, but should give map away for free and help other train.....

    If people find that holding and selling the few 'grindable' maps is worth their time then banning them for selling is only a symptom of the problem.

    Either more maps need to be made viable to grind or better options for leveling need to be made.

    Getting upset is understandable but how is 'Banning people for X' going to solve it.

    Try doing more quests or finding less meta maps to grind in the meantime.

    Its not banning people for x and its not a symptom, just like when there were 200 players online a day and there was no "selling gs2 for 4m!!!" This shouldnt be the case now and the fact people abuse @mapowner to prevent other players from playing that specific map should be banable, mapowner was created to prevent fights between players not make bank

    I wanna sell GS2 maps so that mages can feel even more weak because their main source of EXP gain is in a problematic state to get a position in it.

    And that gives me a hard boner.

    There are plenty of open maps availble to grind given people tend to only sell the 'meta' ones.

    All you can really do is try and share some alternatives to devalue selling specific maps, they will slowly become less camped by sellers and just by grinders again.
