I think automated resource harvesting, BOD gathering, and other activities of that nature have a much worse impact on the economy.
This simply makes playing the dungeons worth it.
There's nothing preventing us from reducing the gold obtainable from other avenues to maintain balance.

You know...for my first couple years on UOG, I tamed, farmed and pvp'd and managed to get enough gold for a couple small houses (one for me, and one for my oldest son). Then I IDOC'd and upsold and ended up with four houses plus a spare million+ gold. Then you nerfed pvm and I got into BODs (farming, tracking, buying, selling, trading and filling), and in less than a year I had over 10 mil. It was a lot of work, so I don't think it's unbalanced relative to pvm. We're talking *months* of effort on BODs.
Of course, since then I've become a Poker Shark and I'm over 30 mil, but that is the stuff of legends
As for needing more money sinks, it's not a bad idea, but there's plenty of stuff to buy on the Selling Forum (Chimera's, Castles,...).
I'm going to check my old dungeon haunts and see if it's fun again. I'll report back.
Thanks again...
