XD I feel like that most people with like .03 cents of gold is actually from me! HAHAHA I donated so I could get a horse and warehouse and had leftovers. And right after buying somethings, My friends noticed they had gold. I'm wondering if I'm one of the few people who donate to PG. And most likely if people have a low number of it, it's because I bought something. Heh... I'm weird.

I can assure you you're not the only one spending Gold for stuff, as someone has bought some of my items and I'm 100% sure it wasn't you.
But I've heard the first 40 or so players got free Gold, so you could as well be the only one who payed for it. xD
I'm thinking of donating some money for the game too, but whether this will happen or not, no idea. I'm pretty stingy when it comes to spending money on the internet. The game sure deserves support though.

I've been buying a lot of stuff, especially if I don't have a group wanting to go through 4. I'm usually buying herbs and blue ink. And I bought fur and ink early on because... I was like, why not? And plus! I need to renew my warehouse and horse soon. Those two things are completely worth the donations.

Thanks Kami and Cornelia for your comments. We did provide a ‘stimulus package’ initially in the game, which put virtual money in the game for the first 40 or so users during our Alpha. This helped us understand how the economy of the game worked and also got money into the game to reward the activity of getting and synthesizing items. So, the Alpha gold coins stimulated activity by rewarding the more committed players (those who were getting and synthesizing items) with a market of gold-coin carrying members who could buy those items through the Merchant Guild. The idea of Gold Coins is to allow users to get valuable services; e.g. getting pets, storage, salon services, cool items for a reasonable price. The other reason for these paid services is for us to make enough money to stay in business. It seems to be working because it is now possible to get a variety of items in the Merchant Guild for very little currency, 0.02G or 0.03G. It has made the acquisition of items quite inexpensive.

@ gody: I saw you yesterday when I was on, but you hurried into tower 2 before I could say 'hi'. I'm on periodically... usually when I'm bored. For the mot part, I like to get on past 10 pm PST. And there is usually a hoard of people. Although, I was on yesterday around 4-5pm PST and some how managed a huge group of people until about 7 pm. It was pretty cool. We got about tenish people in a group. A lot of new people were in the group with us.
@boom: I kinda figured that is what the gold was being used for. I was thinking oyu guys were doing the republican's way -- Trickle Down Economics. (That is their idea of how to stimulate economy after all xD mmm Economics was a fun class!) It works decently here, because the horse and warehouse is worth it. I like telling people that if they donate, it's worth it. The Warehouse is a godsend and the animals are amazing with extra dice rolls (which, the new people dont really see as being all amazing. They don't come from the "OMG I HAVE 4 DICE!" group. *didn't like the huge increase of dice* ) and they help fight! My horsey is Level 18 and I'm letting him rest up before I take him out to help me through 3~~ teehee~
Those are well worth it!

I also bought gold from Puppet Guardian. I don't mind spending money on games I have fun in, . I have yet to buy a pet, but have a warehouse (omg so useful). I'd rather spend on community anyways. Calling it the Phruity Bailout Package, XD. That way others are getting Gold too. Lol. Probably will buy pet when exotic ones come.
