I don't even know Fabio. I just know he seems to be the topic of attacks in forums. That's why I checked his shops to see what was going on. I honestly didn't see anything any different than I've seen in other shops.

I am by no means taking sides. I am just stating what I saw. And what I know about the market. And about the fact that the drama should be kept out of public forums. Believe me I gave it a lot of thought before I posted anything because I know it's a sellers death to have a different opinion and not keep your mouth shut. But ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.

The market is not going to shrivel up and die. And we're not going to die for it. It is what it's always been. Even if some of the players have changed, other things have not.

I personaly did not think the A B C thing was meant to be insulting. It is true. There are the people that are willing to pay more for traits and it trickles down. Whether the reason is some can afford it or not isn't the point. If there is any insult in it, then it should be me complaining because I'm on the lower end of that list. lol But I don't take it as an insult. I take it as reality.

If my one purchase causes the earth to open up and swallow the entire kitty market, then you have my deepest apology. That was not my intention. I just wanted a nice kitty to further my breeding plan.

I am not going to take the word of ppl I don't know about another person I don't know. Nothing was done to me or anyone I do know that warrants my blacklisting anyone. The one thing that doesn't impress me is that you bring it here.

I entirely agree.

RE: The ABC listing, if people want to be insulted by something, they can always find a reason. What he was doing is just like using x, y and z in a mathematical formula. I'm not insulted regardless of whether I am A, G, J or Z.

So much of what people are complaining about is just business as usual, and you would see it on any SIM or in any market. They are just choosing to target one person - and whether they are jealous or just nervous about what is going on with pricing - no one person, even one who apparently described himself as a god, could destroy the market.

What does bother me is the fact that some people are enjoying being so arrogant and hateful.

*nods* Our time is worth money, but I accepted soon after getting on SL that there is nothing I could do here - or at least that I would want to do here - that would give a return equal to what my time is worth in RL. It is likely that if that were factored in, for any of us, most cats would be so expensive that no one would buy them.
