Maybe we could be able to buy gems for cash and use them on special agency items/ pets. For like an extra quin claiming ticket we can pay a certian amount of gems for etc.
I don't think something like that would work here just because a lot of people hardly use the SG that they have. I know I barely ever user mine and almost never charge for anything Patchie related since the currency has worth, but not a lot of it. For a lot of people here.
I'd rather use my money on the objects I want directly rather than pay real money for a currency that is stuck as that currency. Unless it were like an automatic thing like they have on flight rising, where the auctions and things weren't in the forums. But since we are working directly with users selling the goods, I'd feel much better just using my money with the users.
If this site weren't so driven by a community and was more automated, it might work better.
Personally I think if SG had more value it would be better. If we had another SG sink it might be good, but I know we had a big sink with the horses. But I like to hoard SG and I know lots of others do too.
Personally the things that have worth the most are agency pets. That's how I trade things for what I want on here.
