I don't like the credits in Achaea mostly because I don't like the idea of exchanging real money for money in a MUD. I might be more willing to buy credits if they were in a graphical game, such as DAoC, because I would be able to see what I had and show it to other people with a graphical representation. I've never bought stuff in a video game with real money, but I would be more inclined to buy something that was represented graphically that others could see. I mean, you could read the line of text that says that I have something cool, but it's still a line of text. I guess I like to visually show that I have something cool to other people.
