I think this would only work in certain cases. The people who really really burn through AT's are the people who have the millions of MSN contacts who can simply, at will, put it in their MSN name for a tonne of AT's. This would slow the problem, I certainly agree. But it wouldn't work too well. I could be wrong.

The AT sellers will take those 10k AT's, turn around and sell them. The people who use AT's, will still simply use them. I think this would be a temporary stimulus, for I'm not even sure if it would be a month. Once again, I could be wrong.

Just my thoughts, sadly, I have no constructive criticsm myself. All pessimism here. =P

THe heart of the problem, as it always has been since along time, there are just TO many ATs.

I hope that "nice big check" is worth the pound of flesh you will have to give them next year.

If the ats are limited, how is that going to drop their prices? That's going to make them get even more expensive...

Sorry BrDavs but the $$ spenders would not like that... Only a select few of us havent spent a dime on this game... I personally wouldn't like a reset, cause I like the game how it is at the moment. Next update I might be right behind you on it...

Only a select few? I can think of at least 10 people on my msn right now that regularly complain about people who spend $$. I can also think of only a handful in EPA that actually spend any $$.

if even that, i don't think there are people in EPA who spend $$, one or two may spend like $20 here and there but no big spenders.

2 common misconceptions

1. more people spend $$ then play for free.

2. this game can or would survive without $$ players.
