1. I agree with Drayab with the setting up of a raw material shop to buy/sell raw materials. I also agree that all the shops should have a pc owner so the money the shops take in can recirculate still.

2. I feel that the bank needs a bit of a change. What happens with all that money that belonged to all the dead characters in the entire game?!? It would keep it in circulation if the money was spread over the active accounts as interest, or if it was dropped in the safe to serve the government. This way the money can still circulate and not die when a PC dies.

3. I feel the NPC's need a bit of change to. It would be nice to be able to interact with them. I'd like to see them buy/sell at stores and deposit/withdraw at the bank. It will keep the money flowing, and it'll look like there is more going on. An idea would be for the shopkeepers to try and get customers to buy this and that. The shopkeeper could look at what the customer has on, suggest things the customer doesn't have, or suggest things that are better in quality then what the customer has. In this way a shopkeeper could see a NPC character, suggest items to that NPC and the NPC could make a transaction depending on "on hand flow", and need.

there's my um, 3 cents...
