Sol is the best thing to happen to ascended since it was released 5+ years ago, he's an active and dedicated game admin and is devoting a lot of his time to improve the server - which is just what ascended needs.
That being said... I think he's made a mistake on this one, but where he is a good admin, hopefully he'll take our feedback on board and adapt it appropriately ^_^
I agree with both of the above statements. Sol has been a great asset to Ascended, and the balance on this change is way off.
Obviously, on a change of this sort, initial negative feedback would have been expected, and I expect that Sol would have made a decision to weather it for a while and see how things pan out before making further modifications. I know I would have. However, I think that, in this case, the adjustment was far enough off that it was immediately clear and that reevaluating the change should occur right away.
I won't put on airs and do it myself, but I recommend that Sol put up the suggested poll where people could vote on what level of adjustment to try out. I think the most common suggestions, as I am recalling range from 10x-100x the original costs - so maybe 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, & 1000? And post an in-game message so active players will know to come vote on the proposal.
