Just run of the mill un-used plugins that 1-2 people purchased, and then i'd reimburse those people in premium shop credit
A few questions, though:
1. You said some plugins are being removed. Could you give some examples? I assume some of the donation related ones that only one or two people actually purchased would be included here?
2. Since this will essentially reset the economy, will you be reducing the number of ways that money enters into the economy? For example, will the rewards from voting be reduced now that the economy doesn't necessarily require such inflated numbers?
3. In the same vein as #2, since this will reset the economy, will villager trading be enabled now? This would be a great opportunity to balance and enable that, probably the only chance you'll get.
4. Totally unrelated to the topic at hand, but which admin is currently in charge of Patreon coupon distribution? Easier to just ask here than to ask around xd
2. No. Voting is important. The reason the economy was THAT fucked, was because a handful of people found ways to dupe items, and proceeded to dupe thousands of diamond stacks and whatnot.
3. Villager trading will not be enabled. It's still insanely broken and you can exploit the economy that way. Villager trading is not compatible with having an economy.

To be clear, what I mean is not to make voting less viable as a way of earning money, but rather to just make all the number smaller. Like, make diamonds 1/10 their current cost, make votes give 1/10 of what they currently do, make events give 1/10 of what they currently do, etc. At the moment, earning a million emp isn't really hard. You can do it pretty easily if you really want to.
By reducing slashing the cost of literally everything, you'd make the Emp seem like it's worth more, even if you technically haven't rebalanced anything at all.
I just think it'd be cool to see earning a million EmpBucks be a thing that takes effort again, rather than a thing that can be done rather trivially by mining for a little while.
I admit I could have phrased my question in a way that made what I was talking about a bit clearer, that's totally on me.
But it wouldn't really achieve anything, it's just psychological, because whether you get 20k from voting and a piece of dirt is 20k, or whether you get 2k from voting and a piece of dirt is 2k, it's the same thing.
I agree it wouldn't really do anything, but I feel that with the advent of enchantments, beacons, potions, and everything else that has made amassing wealth easier, the value of emp has changed drastically.
The original emporium prices were set in an era before any of those things existed, when the absolute fastest you could mine an obsidian was at a rate of 4 per minute, for example. Diamonds were so much more of a grind to get back then as well, given that the ore veins were the same size, but neither efficiency nor fortune existed back then.
I figure since these "new" gameplay mechanics have drastically changed the value of basically everything, now would be a good time to adjust the prices so that they no longer feel as inflated as they currently do. Sure, it could always be done later, (and could have been done earlier, but then you would need to update every single player's Emp balance to reflect the change as well, as well as making sure every autoshop owner is aware of the upcoming change, etc.) but I feel like this is realistically the only time this can be done, which is why I bring it up now.
I just think it would be nice if the numbers weren't so crazy-overinflated. If it doesn't happen I won't be sad, because I know it would take a bit of effort, but I'd certainly be happy if it were done.
