I have started to change the way people sell and buy on res. For awhile, nattie's would sell for a k. For just one pet, you spend 1000 tu. This didn't seem right. So I started to save money, and buy these 1k pets. I would then procede to sell them for a fraction of their costs. 50 tu. And now, people are starting to following my example... Muwhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhawhahaw,,,

...you do realized that selling pets for a low price messes with the economy...right?

Exactly. I'm monopolizing the entire economy.

 Many people are actually trying to save the economy from these under-priced pets. :P

So it bugs you that Ranchers get more money for their pets, even the natural ones?

I think it is quite silly that you're saving money, buying more expensive pets and selling them for cheap... kinda dumb. So what if naturals are more than 1k? You can make that easy peasy!

Yes, but we want the prices to be high. Cheap prices can be awesome when you're buying, but icky when you're trying to sell. It's really not hard to make 1k. :P

I don't mind selling cheap. It's not like I'm wasting actual money. And I can make it up very easily. I'm just being me. And being me envolves me selling pets extremely cheap. I can remember being a noob and not having alot of tu. I wished people would sell cheap. Now I'm selling cheap

That means you loose Tu. It's not a very smart way to go, but if you'd like to do it that way, it's your choice. :p

1K is seriously not a lot. You can get 5K by going to Trash Ithmus everyday : People are smart enough to google 'dailies', 'hints' and so on for Res.

Also; what would be the point of that? I know you want to be more fair to the 'poor' people; but I don't think that there are that many on Res. Plus; if you did that in every game; you'd be starting at a super high level which would no longer be super high. It's like printing more money.

Well. Looks like I'm back on cull duty.

You stock your shop with ridiculously low prices? I'll buy 'em and throw them in the forest.

I may not be the type to think of pixels as more than pixels, but I'd personally be insulted if I was a Creatu going for fifty tu.

It's a ridiculous clutter-cause anyway. People who sell every Creatu they can get for almost nothing are just filling the ACS with pets that almost no one is going to really want. Even if there was, say, a newbie with no pets. They'd probably want to hatch their own rather than buying yours.

But that's just it. they are only pixels. If they became real, then I wouldn't be so cheap. But since they are just pixels(And most don't have good names.) They're just junk pets I use to stock my shop. And I like to have cheap pets, because they are just pixels. And, once again, I can make up the tu in a matter of minutes if I needed to.

... I just noticed something in your shop. And just. No. Just no.

It's a little annoying when you take naturals and sell them for a single tu. It is downright frustrating when you undercut on colored Creatu.

Yes. I saw Zeloswilder. Yes. I bought him back.

It's people like you who let pets like ginger Vogar fall to being worth less than five thousand tu like they were back in v2's earlier days, where they should be worth multiple hundred thousands.

People like you who made the Rancher cla-ss absolutely worthless.

They may be just pixels, but I would like my pixels to be worth something, thanks. Res' economy does matter. If it isn't healthy, no one can make money off anything but retired items and stocks.

Sure, you're making the game a little easier for the poor who happen to notice your shop, but you're also creating more poor people.

Seriously. When everyone wins.. no one wins.

If I ever see you buy a creatu from my shop, I'm buying it back. For whatever amount. And yes, I now hold a grudge against you and will never help you sell pets etc.

Ok. I'm sorry if I have offended you. I will start to sell my pets at a more expensive price. And yes, some pixels should be worth something. But they are some pixels who people just don't care about. They don't even bother to make an even semi-realistic name. they just mash random letters and numbers. I used to do that not to long ago, but stopped. I now try to make them have decent names.

Well, let rephrase what I just said. I'm sorry that I have offended you. I tried out a thereoy, and at the cost of making people mad at me, I tested it. Now, my experiment is over. I will not do it again, and will resume selling pets at a lil more expensive price.
