I can't craft a thing that's useful to me for my hunting (for two pure adventure characters), so I always need to ask others to make my spells, armor, weapons, jewelery, potions etc. The crafters get paid coin, or I trade comps or items, or they do building work for me. So far as I'm concerned, the economy seems to be working so long as you want to be a part of it.
Many folks bought the comps I sold, as it seemed for a couple of years I was the only one who regularly put the "difficult" Satyr Island comps up for sale on Order. People made their money back building my plot or from me buying their PB-able items from the connie.
Many times I've had to wait for things or find a specific person to make something for me. Yes it can take hours, days, week, months mostly because the number of players online during my prime-time is rather pitiful, 8 visible as I write this.
You must be talking to the wrong people because even with such low player numbers, when I've needed things and supplied the resources as best I can, folks have been willing to help.
I saw you in MP the other day asking for your T3 tech, you were in and out within a few minutes, and failed to see that you had someone respond to you because you'd gone.
This change is just another speedbump for players, we've always had to hunt our own T4 and T5 techs and forms (although forms were available from the Veilo for a steep price) or slowly wait for those things to filter through auctions, friends, guilds and finally the Consigners.
Just give those few people who hunt and sell, a chance to do their thing.
