A goldsink is a method of removing fantasy currency from a roleplaying website's economy.
It is designed to indirectly control inflation; if people don't have the gold to spend, people can't charge higher prices because the item will never sell.
n. - (portmanteau of “gold-digger” and “boot-licker”) - a person who fanboys one or many super-wealthy persons, ascribes to them unrelated qualities such as native altruism, intelligence, or right-to-added-freedom, and tends to be quite vocal in their defense or admiration of this person who has no clue they exist and wouldn’t care if they did.
