RE: SPAM
Exactly, the idea behind a google doc would be to have it available via your profile or a sign at your shop, forum post etc. Perhaps it could be added to the secondary market lists even.
As for finding a cat with specific traits, the best way I've found is word of mouth. Ask people that breed and ask them to ask their friends. I recently had a buyer IM me looking for something very specific. I didn't have it, but knew someone that I thought may have it so I sent them there and they found what they were looking for. Anyway you look at it, getting the cusotmer what they want is good business. You can always post in the Wanted thread as well.
What customers don't seem to want anymore is endless repetitive spam, ninja tp's, NC's dropped on them that seem like a personal note but turn out to be cat spam etc. If someone wants to hear about your sales or asks you to please let them know if you get a certain type of cat, that's different, that's a request for information. And I do that a lot. And I have NCs dropped on me and that's fine. But if your friends list is nothing more than a prospect list, I don't wanna be on it.
I have noticed recently things have calmed down a bit. I did mute a few people and it made a huge difference and got rid of a lot of frustration. I'm actually enjoying looking at the remaining ads I see.
