cause then people hold out and wait for them? that's less than half my price any smart person would wait for that even if they really needed it

besides people would definately ignore any trade laws to buy that I guarantee it since there have been in the past that have been caught

I can guarantee you that someone selling at 15 per, assuming ANYBODY else is harvesting at ALL, is going to run out and not be able to serve anywhere near the amount that customers will desire. If people hold out and wait for it, they won't get any. The demand at 15 would be extremely high, and the supply wouldn't support it.

Edit: And, frankly, if you're concerned about your "price"-- that implies a far different motive than you stated.

actually i stated several motives including price and also handing some of the power back to Serens since Serenwilde is currently the weakest of the organizations military wise.

And now... the sparkles are going away, which won't really help Serenwilde much at all, will it.

If you know who the "stripper" is... you'd also know that any astral beasties you can survive, he/she could utterly destroy. tongue.gif

though you really should just join forces with me and the other herbalists! and then Glomdoring and Serenwilde would own all the sparkleberries and make city fighters bow down to us!

actually that's not true cause it's easy to survive them and just flood a sphere. Like I said I don't care to harvest. I hate to harvest, I wish I had never taken it sometimes but I also hate wasting lessons.

I think I'll wait for Forren's traditional response.

It's been the same smile for the last few posts.

The single laugh.gif smilie was first put into popularity by Soll, not Forren. tongue.gif

By "traditional," I meant that he had just done a post with four of them, and then another with one. It's now tradition in this thread that all of his responses must consist of a string of laugh.gif s.

Edit: And he did keep up his tradition. happy.gif

You stripped all of astral before, did you not?

People were pissed. They decided to strip you instead.

To make this post complete: laugh.gif

You were the one who stripped it from almost every sphere and tried to monopolize it on the ones that remained. An "antitrust" movement formed, removing the monopoly. It wouldn't have occurred if you hadn't already stripped most of Astral for your benefit.

Edit: Should this little monopoly plan end, I'm sure the sparkleberry will start growing again. There would be no reason for denying it.
Krellan2007-01-19 01:58:47
I'll never stop guarding! City herbalists will never touch them again!
Xenthos2007-01-19 02:00:17
Uh huh. Feel free to think that. happy.gif
