If people are giving up Kittycats, then I see it as 'they were only in it for the money, not the pet itself nor the wonderful community we are'. There are plenty of threads in this forum on how to help you budget yourself so you won't go bankrupt if you love the cats and want to keep going. It's all about priorities, do you want to make a buckload of cash or do you want to have the cutest pet that happens to be breedable?
But if you want to feed you cats and don't want to pay rl money you have to sell a cat to be able to buy kibble (if you want to feed your cats themself)
i know that we can't force ppl to do anything. Thats not my goal. But at least showing and telling ppl "hey. might you rise your opening bid in benefit of the community" is not forcing, only a suggestion in the BENEFIT OF THE COMMUNITY. if we would all sell our cats for 100 L we could all stop. Because none can tell me that everyone will pay real life Money into sl to feed cats.
Offcourse the cats aren't here for me to bring me the big money. i don't care. i only want them to feed themselves and to figure the rental prices i need to pay for the shops at the great markets out there. Auctions are fun. If i think about mine and if i think that i have belly pain from laughing all the time i love to do auctions. Cats are fun and thats a fact. but if they make you belly pain because you think "iff can i feed you tomorrow" thats going to be less fun. so in the end the money you can make with the cats plays a role. As i say in rl " money doesn't make you happy...but your live much easier" its the same in sl.
To see some ppl just destroying new traits makes a lot of ppl sad (including me).
and yes i know the fact that there are 2 views of that all. but if we would have all the same opinion live would be kinda boring
@Kitten. This is a general discuss about selling new traits cheap. we are not blacklisting anyone here.
a huge AMEN!
I am not here to make profit from Kittycats - all my monies goes back into food, tiers and buying new kittycats - ideally (hopefully) kitties should be able to substain themselves. However its really dishearting to see new traits/furs becoming devalued in a matter of weeks - and we all know this is happening and no point pretending its not.
