  This is simply a matter of balancing the faucets and
  drains. (Granted, actually doing it isn't so simple, but that's
  'all' you have to do.)

  That's assuming a small range of things. In the physical world,
  there are things that can be bought with money that range up to the
  point that no single individual can afford it. Why not simply do the
  same thing in a MUD?

  Just bad design really.

  I wouldn't call Diablo II a MUD.

  Yes, utility is key, but the utility of a good currency is in: 1)
  Portability 2) The ability to store value without significant decay
  (food, for instance, is a very bad thing in which to store wealth).
  3) A standard way to denominate value.
  
  (I'm sure there are other advantages, but those are the three I
  could think of off hand).
  
  If a currency in a MUD has no value, it is sheerly a result of bad
  design. There's nothing inherently wrong with the idea of currencies
  in MUDs.

  What if all the dragons disappear? The sword still does the same
  thing but it pretty useless now.

  But why not just make players eat, for instance. As long as players
  need _anything_ then faucets and drains can be balanced.

  Achaea has done this. We have a hard-coded currency, and I haven't
  seen any real inflation in a long time. Again, it's simply a matter
  of balancing faucets and drains.
