With each week there is more and more kinah on the server, this makes items insanely expensive ( for exaple plume +5 which on retail was worth 600-700kk, here its 3kkk ). Gearing up new character fast is possible thanks to big amout of kinah sellers. Many players focus only on farming big amouts and then sell them, not to mention account selling. For new player who doesn't want to invest into game, gearing up takes too long. Does support have any thoughts about this problem?  is it normal that starting new game from 0 is on lost position?

Hello,
You can always join farming, sell items, craft consumables. 

I am also reminding that selling and buying game currency (kinah) and accounts is prohibited by the server rules and will lead to the punishments. 

+5 Plume isn't something you get during your 1st week on the server. 

And don't compare this server to retail please. Retail had tempering solution in the shop which made them cheaper. Here its a rare occurrence to find one outside of events.

first of all, on farming spots are people who have characters on both races and they are farming there all day long. I can guess some of them are doing it with one aim - selling profits for real money. 
for the second point, are you aware how many kinah sellers have their offers on facebooks/discord groups? saying its prohibited isn't enough....

Some kinah traders were caught and banned. It is not like we can see their private conversations in every social media and ban for kinah trade. If you have proofs of someone violating the server rules, you can report them to us.

maybe I start running this server for you? There is problem with kinah trade and you are ignoring it. If you can't punish enough sellers to disencourage them, maybe there is another solution? Maybe more accurate events, which cannot be abused by players with 100 alts ( yes I'm talking about snowflakes ). Maybe make doing instances and playing game itself more profitable? Watching from behind and just blinking wont fix anything. You have advantage over retail you know which past decisions made players happy and which made players quit the game.

You were talking about players making kinah every day. Now there's no snowflake event. 
Many kinah traders have already been banned and more will be in the future. I have already mentioned above that it is not like we get to read personal messages of the users. 

while you on this trading talk why you guys allow account sharing but not buying?

You can share your account with anyone but we are not responsible for the actions in it, and buying an account or selling ain't allowed in your project.

again, "it's not allowed" but you execute banning trading too poorly. Most of inactive accounts are listed on trade sites/discords. But I guess you cannot check which accounct is listed even if it has full gear in description with glory number.
