I'm pretty sure MS was built to handle inflation assuming that the source and sink were scaled evenly.

The only source of mesos minus a few obscure quests is to kill monsters and loot the meso or items they drop. People who loot all their drops will get around an average that the current sinks can sustain and thus, keep the value of items/mesos from inflating.

So the problem ultimately lies with the botters who get a disproportionate amount of mesos/items per character (or even per person).

If we're living in a fantasy world where Nexon is willing to take any measure to offer a 5 Star service, Grade A game, there would be several GMs on each server (maybe even per couple channels) around the clock to monitor botting activity. To lessen workload, make it an incentive for players to find botters and track their IGNs for GMs to look out for. These GMs (who would be paid on the hour) would routinely check problem maps (for instance, maps with mobs that contain very valuable drops worth botting for) and briefly check on prime botting locations (unpopulated, large, obscure). You can't eliminate botting completely but you can make it so hard that the profits the botters may get aren't as exponentially devastating as it is today.

Though, if we needed better sinks, making a system where you can trade mesos for restrictive NX Credit (not prepaid) or offer valuable equipment from certain NPCs for a high meso price (like the old Crusader shop with the shoulder and pendant) would be a good start...

As it is now, there are zero GMs on any server at any given moment. It's pretty obvious that they're never on because of the exploits, glitches, hacked players (smega: SHOPPING 11-1 GOGOGO aka I HACKED THIS ACCOUNT AND I NEED TO SELL EVERYTHING FAST), crashes, and blatant meso ad bots filling up channel 1 + smegas that advertise their shitty sites. A good example of how slow information passes to Nexon is that holding E -> 1 month ban thing: the only assurance we had for a couple days is a random forum volunteer saying "they're on it guys; don't worry about it". It seems that even Hime has disconnected from any communication with the players since the only posts she makes on the forums are completely random + have nothing to do with current issues. "Happy Valentines Day" btw (isn't that completely random? <_<).
