Along the obsolecense lines, instead of having one ultimate weapon, have a few of them, but they are all ultimate in a different way from one another, so that the hardcore players end up spending huge amounts of time and money to get them all. I personally think the best inflation deterrant is item damage, you could make it rather expensive to repair an item. I like those ideas, especially the guild wars binding one.

Long ago I used to develop for Muddog Mud (develop hell... I ran the place) and the arms race was fully active there. Eventually I got sick of things that I made a weapon that just would destroy anything in it's path, but to get it you had to do some pretty tough stuff. And since weapons on Muddog only lasted as long as you were logged in, this was not much of a problem, particularly since it rebooted once a day. :) I feel your pain about building for muds.
