Main point is just for fun, not some form of actual research as, many have pointed out, it misses out a huge number of very important factors.

Just interesting to see how much silver people currently have.

 

It obviously misses things like income rate, asset value, even character value could come into play too I suppose as they are worth silver too.

 

It would be impossible to get a proper picture of what the distribution is like, however it's just a fun metric seeing how currently silver is distributed.

 

A graph showing silver/time would be interesting, to see the fluctuations. (As many have said, most people only have silver for short periods in order to buy specific items/upkeep/etc)

What kind of socialist experiment is this? My wealth or non-wealth is no ones business and also has no bearing on how I play the game.

Thankfully the option to not vote is always present. :)

I'm betting i'm in the same boat as many other players ..  my cash in hand is in a downward spiral ... the reduction in income from traders is forcing me to spend banked cash on upkeep.  So, less money for buying anything from other players, and will only get worse.

What is this wealth you speak of?

 

I keep zero money in the bank.  If i want to buy something I get some coin from the shop, and dump whatever is left into deed upkeep.

 

On the other hand, I have about 2.5 gold currently distributed in upkeep across the various insanity deeds.....

 

By the standard of "cash in the bank" I got nothing... but I think I'm doing ok. =P

5 people so far with more than 10g smh...

 

Keep in mind it's just what people say they have, we can't even verify this data as true.  I expected people to vote the maximum to troll or be funny anyways but there's nothing that can be done in a poll to stop it 

 

Part of the reason for the poll was that people keep saying deed upkeep should be lowered but by the looks of it most people claim to be able to afford a deed and a decent amount of upkeep with what they have just lying around in the bank

As others have said, the poll doesn't really offer anything useful for us.

 

There's already a bias that only forum goers will be voting (and on a guess, forum goers are going to be more rooted in the community and have more money, on average, than those that don't).

 

Also the people who are actually voting is unlikely a representative sample of even forum goers, much less the general population.

 

And of course there's no guarantee of truthfulness in the answer people are giving.

 

Cool idea, but the execution is too flawed to yield good information :(.

Wouldn't be really hard spend 1k euro = 10g, sell 10g get money back, this poll is rather pointless. :mellow:

 

If it was earned silver/gold from playing that would be more interesting to me.

Yep. Pretty much sums it up for me as well.  :)

voted 2g and only then saw that it's only about money in the bank, my actual vote should then have been 50s as the rest of that is mostly stuck in deed upkeep and seryll lumps. These days I pretty much don't trade so all my money eventually goes to upkeep and then I buy new money from the shop. So that 50s will be gone pretty soon.
