I'm open minded about the reset, but i'm doubtful. I will most likely be not spending a single dollar unless the community, not just me, are recompensed for their efforts in keeping the community and the game alive all these years.
If you have little to no understanding of this game or its community, you probably do not understand the amount of time, money and effort people have put into being someone in this game. While i personally was against the really annoying chance-based gold-seller type economy that has plagued the game, and understand it most likely takes extreme measures to try something else, i see no good coming from this choice.
Over the years i have sunk in hundreds of dollars and thousands of hours into this game, not only because of the game being very good, but because of the community being excellent. If you piss on the community, you are left with only a great game for a rather niche audience, of which' pillars are most likely not going to return due to having so much of their effort wasted.
I'd propose at the very least letting people have their ships and gear. A complete economy reset would only require getting rid of the insane amounts of money that roll around everywhere. There is no amount of consumables you can give us that in any way recompense the work that people have done for this game's community.
The funny thing is, i personally have thought it has been a good idea to have a premium subscription model of this game instead of the model it has had for a long time, but not for one moment have i thought it's a good idea to wipe all the progress away.
