RE: WHY DO WE FIGHTING OVER PRETEND CATS!!
Samai, you're always so spot on LOL I don't know, it feels like people may be too emotionally-invested/dependent on the secondary market of the game and their expectations of said market. The market fluctuates; we're in 2014 now and a lot of reflections point to markets that existed in 2011! Things have changed since, and will continue to change.
Everyone who is becoming so emotionally-invested should take a step back and realize that we're all in this together as a community. That doesn't mean we're all going to agree on every little aspect of the secondary market which is ours, but this is a hobby that we all share and should embrace. Each one of us has something in common: KittyCatS, not to mention other possible interests. The friendships that we have woven through KittyCatS give incentive to continue in the hobby and partake in the secondary market. Ultimately, you may miss out on a few friendships through hurting someone's feelings due to comments of disdain that may apply to them. By burning bridges through indirectly putting down the way a person may operate in the secondary market really isn't helpful for our community as a whole. The community = our secondary market, and without it the secondary market is nothing.
There is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to play the secondary market. Spoiler: Neither a group majority's definition of 'good pricing' is correct nor is any esteemed note card passed around for pricing. (Not to mention the current note card I've seen was made in 2012 - we're quite a ways away from the market in 2012!) And while everyone is entitled to their opinions, it should be remembered that opinions posted for everyone to read may make someone feel hurt and unmotivated to participate in KittyCatS as a whole, especially the secondary market.
And just like Samaii said, our emotions are going into arguing over a market for pretend cats, for goodness sake! As much as I love KittyCatS, the cherished friends I've made in this community, my personal breeding project kitties, my toy/teacup/petite collectors over the years, and that which I've learned about the different breeds introduced in-game - I even adopted a Balinese Seal Lynx RL named Kamila due to my love for them in KC, I think that we should consider not letting our passion for this hobby be at the expense of others.
