(3) This Act shall be enacted immediately upon its signage.
(4) This Act is authored by Nim.

(2) This mechanic is being exploited by some players to "print" money, which is then traded for foreign exchange, causing a net drain on the server's economy and undermining its stability.

3 - Regulation of Player Transactions
(1) The /pay command, and all other commands that facilitate direct player-to-player currency transfers, shall be modified to prevent players from entering a negative balance.
(a) A player's account balance may not fall below 0 as the result of a transaction.
(b) Any attempt to execute a transaction that would result in a negative balance for the sender shall be denied.
