Thoughts?
I'd like to underline Kay's comment about this by saying that this is an arbitrary pricing list,,there is nothing in any way official about it, and should be taken only as a very general idea for anyone just starting to sell.
To be fair, the author has also taken time to explain this carefully but the problem is that many only read then copy paste the prices and don't bother to read the rest of the info on pricing, and this is why i'm against any kind of pricing list circulating in the community.
This list is also rather old and i now see people fling out 50L$ or less per trait when the subject comes up in group chat.
Anyhow, as we know at 1 traited kitty can sell for anything from 50L$ to 50,000 L$ or more in the case of a brand new ultra recessive.
Anyhow back to the OP before i start fighting
I think the answer is that the world is walking on it's head.
One only has to look at the hysterical crowd in front of the Apple mainstore on the release of a new app to know this. They'll rip each other apart to be the first to own it, and for what ? a gadget just to phone with and do some of the stuff they can already do much more comfortably on their computer anyhow.
Also i could never understand how some people could spend most of their waking hours in front of their PC, then gradually i found myself doing more or less the same some days, especially when i first discovered SL and then Kittycats.
A few years back if i'd known that anyone was spending 120 USD/month for pixel land and up to the same to breed pixel cats i'd have seriously urged them to go consult before they got taken away in a straight jacket.
There is also an extremely pernicious effect :
The brain naturally functions on vastly complex algorithms based on the Golden Number, as does all living matter (see : plant structures, the sunflower for example)
The constant exposure to binary and decimal functioning information gradually modifies and impoverishes our brain patterns also, and as we (should) know all parts of our body and psychism are indisociable so this can results in our emotional reactions becoming disordered, hence our total overreaction concerning our pixel pets.
This is just one of the methods used to produce the programmed anarchic disorganization of the human being as a whole, in other words, virtualization.
I'm definitely not giving anyone a lesson here, far from it as i ACTUALLY KNEW ALL THIS before entering my phase of becoming totally hitched to my Mac.
For some reason i thought that as i knew the traps i was immune … DUH
I am now however breaking bad back to the real world and getting back to the real concrete stuff that i used to enjoy and rediscovering the real benefits and pleasures i used to have.
So it's never too late.
