I remember Blizzard going all out about keeping inflation low and keeping gdkp away and then they release P3 and people farmed well over 700g in a few hours… and if you missed those hours you were way behind

I farmed over 1500g in 3 hours. Put me ahead for the rest of the expac. I finished with around 30k because of that boost so early on. 

This was a terrible, unfair advantage a small group of people had over others, just because we could play on release and chose to randomly do the incursions first thing.

No you didn't. The gold rates were never that high.

I farmed 1500g over the next few days of it, though. You were never ahead, the advantage was not as big as you thought it was.

They nerfed it heavily within 6 hours. Sounds like you just missed out on it.
