Money Limit Increasing and Possible Money Leaderboard

[caioxlive13]

Our economy has reached absurd levels recently. We have vanities that easily beat 1/1.5b due to their rarity (those from 2014 or earlier), and things worthing 200m easily. Being able to hold up to 2b of money is no longer enough.
With this in mind , we have 2 plausible options:
 

1. Increase the money limit, or simply remove it. Removing it is easier because in the future we will encounter the same problem, even if it takes 1 or 2 years.

2. Add a bank to your PC to stock up on money. It would have a limit but it could be increased unlimitedly with a ticket purchasable for RP.

Also, a thing that can be added is a Money Leaderboard to show the richest people in game. The option to you reveal your identity can be turned off/on and come by default Off (If OFF, then will show "Unknown Character" instead of nickname of people on leaderboard.)

How did they even come up with a 2bn limit in the first place? There must have been some reason to it right?

The 2b limit isnt just a random number, it has to do which maximum number can be displayed in java without breaking the game, which is 2147483647.

So i doubt this will ever happen.

The bank can happen and store the people's money, increasing by 2b the storage.

The money limit at least to me seems weird so I think removing it would be good but I don't think there should be a leaderboard for money.

If a bank option, is possible that would be pretty awesome. But I'm all for not breaking the game.

alt characters = banks

It doesn't work that way, in MMO as far I understand, any item involving money/yen(be it gtl, your money count or the bank you're saying to implement) can not surpass the number Quakkz said. So the bank will add an additional 2b storage which doesn't sound like a proper solution unless, well, you can buy multiple storage

Why does that matter?

What makes people sad is not be poor. Envy and jealous is what makes people sad. 

Add other leaderboards would make the game unharmonic, the only leaderboards in the

game are PvP MatchMaking and PokeMMO events.

You can store money in other player characters as well.

A leaderbord for this wont work if there is a limit anyway unless if they wipe everyones' pokeyen regularly which wont happen xd. I heard rumours they once cleared everyone's pokeyen during the game's early years idk how far true that rumour is or why they would even do it.

[Quakkz]

Even considering a leaderboard is ridiculously silly, its so easy to manipulate that it wouldnt even hold any value. "Hey buddy, i want to be on the leaderboard for a while, can i hold your money for a week?"
