6 : The Anti-Inflation Revolution

The The Anti-Inflation Revolution (A.I.R) is a gathering of Gaian artists, Vend and Exchange watchers and "regular" users with an ideal, come together for the purpose of fighting Gaia's rampant item inflation and help others get back on track with their item quests while creating a network of like-minded Guilds and users.

Community building is what we are truly fighting for. Fighting against the current climate of greed is our cause. To think beyond yourself is the what we challenge you to do.

Some of us know that this looks like a hopeless struggle, however not to act is also not an option as not doing anything makes us complicit to the degradation of the community itself. If we can even influence just one person we are doing our job.

Kahlil Gibran
" Every evil has its remedy, except folly. To reprimand an obstinate fool or to preach to a dolt is like writing upon the water. Christ healed the blind, the halt, the palsied, and the leprous. But the fool He could not cure."
Many artificial inflationists do not see beyond themselves. To that end, they hurt the community and themselves. Besides, one day, think of how it would be if they had to start over? Consider also that many older members advocate item ratio rather than gold price.

NOTE: Do not donate to the guild itself. If you want to donate send to [candela] instead as guild donations can not be used.
