A meeting of the minds does not require boycotts, per se. But it would encourage conscientious choices by both breeder and seller...Should we need to be legislated up the ying yang? No, I dont think so but when it comes to self-policing lets just take note of how we never have enough cops LOL
Gandhi said it best: Be the change you wish to see in the world
Again, perfect approach, Pretty.
Just watch. Ban and sanctions, only lead to more chaos and price war.
A great conversation, a handshake, an apology being, however, it avoids many wars.
Not to be the devil's advocate. but.
In my opnion, I see no problem, someone sell their kittens for 100l. In the end the question will always be: is that you pay my bills? is that you pay my rental? Not?
This is the maximum rule: "anyone can sell 'your kitten,' or 'your work' for the price you want."
When you need lindens for basic expenses like rent, the solution to send menagerie kittens, does not work. Unless, I can pay my rent with K$ KC dolares.
Another point is, are required to send 8 Cats menagerie, get 1 for food, but 8 kittens sold at 105L $ each, you buy one package of food 5. Do the math!
Or better yet, talk to the person who had to do this kind of action. You have saw many positive responses. Certainly it was never the intention of the person to break the market, just get 'breath' for herself continue with your hobbi.
Do not judge before!
