KittyCatS! Market Improvement Suggestions

[Beloved Ruby]

Hello everyone,

I have always believed that in real life we need to prepare for everything, the abundant times as well as those rainy days. This is how I conduct my second life. I prepare for the good second market seasons, as well as for the low market seasons. I budget myself, know my limits, and take into considerations all costs involved with my KittyCatS! experience. I have always encouraged this in people as well: know your budgets, breed accordingly and prepare for the ups and downs of the market.

We all know that KittyCatS! do everything they can to support the Secondary Market. However, it is not up to us to tell them how to run their business. It is up to us to take responsibility of our hobbies or businesses.

KittyCatS! have always encouraged healthy communications among the KittyCatS! community and have always discouraged confrontations between its members and always have reminded us that personal issues should be addressed outside this forum.

I believe this thread has gone out of line and has moved into another dimension outside the original post.

With that being said, and since the Co.Op has been brought up into this discussion, I will say my two cents: The Co.Op was an idea originated by LickN Wonder with the best intentions of creating harmony among sim owners to aid one another in the Secondary Market and the community. Before this Co.Op, no one talked about these possibilities. Some sims had alliances, but not everyone had come together with the same purpose and ideals to find that perfect middle ground in which to work from. It is obvious that some still carry the same old mentality of separation and division. And this is saddening to see.

The Co.Op is still getting ready to take off and already people say that a true coop should be this or that, without having given a chance for the Co.Op to get itself running as it should. No one has ever forced anyone to join and everyone is welcome to leave if they do not think that it is for them. I just think that each of us represent who we are and what we own and we should take responsibility for our words. When we write with animosity against others, it shows who we really are.

All this thread has achieved is more separation than union. Very sad to see.
