Chatting about prices and events is welcomed too. However our focus is on selling, buying and trading affordable kitties for everyone.
Unfortunately in this group never is any chatting or conversation going on. Maybe because it is a rather small group. I would appreciate it talking about KittyCats themes without being restricted.
I'm in Affordable Kitties and still do mention trait counts there because it's descriptive. (I believe a cat doesn't have to have a high number of traits to be beautiful and intentionally breed Domino IV's & Coco IV's for this reason, but also breed some lines of 9Ts.)
I thought of the group, but also wasn't sure if the chat that we are talking about would fit. If it does, that would save some of us a group slot, but we'd be talking about how many traits a cats has all the time.
Here's a real and perfect example of why it may not fit Affordable Kitties:
I breed Genesis Coco IVs to sell in the L$99 range for people who are just looking for a cute and cuddly pet (like me when I started) and I don't try to trait them up. But I've discovered Double Plush whiskers hidden in that line... on low T Coco IVs. Now I don't feel right selling them for L$99, but I've had to slash prices on other special whiskers which were on very low T kitties, and I don't know if people are still paying any more for them if them are on a low T cat, etc.
Is that conversation that would be okay on Affordable Kitties? Ditto for talking about how much a particular new trait or uber special kitty went for at auction, etc.

But that shouldnt matter when dealing with business. It wasn't pricing, I was generally just helping someone and I named some secondary markets and I got snapped at by the certain csr that always does. So if that one is on i try to limit my interaction in chat and I wil from now on just IM t he person.(I have heard i'm noot the only one she does this to) I think chatting in it to helpsomeone could also answer someone else's question that is why I do it. I also have mentioned some of the useful secondary market tools and they seem to not like that either. It's a community, one would think secondary market chatter would be ok. Also, a new group will deff help new members, when I was new i hardly received replies in chat. I only got help with breeding when i made some awesome friends and i still go to them instead of chat because the last tiime i asked in chat even though i've been breeding 2 years, I got a very rude reply by someone who didn't like me. But anyway a new chat will be more welcoming and friendly. Ivy make the group, I will post it on my sim in a group joiner and I will also get the word out to my renters and friends.
*nods* If you mention a specific secondary market in the Addicts group, they consider it advertising. They are nice enough to maintain and refer people to the Secondary Market List, which I do very much appreciate, but it's pretty overwhelming to look at when you're new.
If we can use an existing group (that isn't affiliated with any particular SIM), it would help (I was the one who suggested Ivy check first), but if not, I think we should create one. I'll certainly help with it in any way that I can.
And, Ivy, sorry about not posting sooner.
Kitty Groups - What do we have and do we need a new one?
