thistlechaserKnow what annoys me? ("Rude people!" "Work!" "The wind blowing!" "...there are things that don't annoy you?") Shush up, no. When people ruin things for other people because they just cannot keep their mouth shut.
I make money in MMOs. I make a heck of a lot of money. I make more money and make it faster than anyone I know. I did it in FFXI. I do it in WoW. Do you know why? Because I do the work to find out what sells. I do research. I watch markets. I track other seller. I do my homework.
Know why else I make money? Because I keep my darned mouth shut.
"Thistle! I'm poor! Tell me what I should sell to make money!"
Yeah, and shoot myself in the foot by inviting more sellers into my markets?
Someone with too much money has been posting how to make gold on WoW. This would be all well and good if she were just hurting herself. But she's not, she's hurting me and every other seller willing to work for their knowledge.
Don't believe me? Two days ago, one of my markets was amazingly healthy. Today it's so horribly awful I lost money just looking at the AH for the mats. All because one person couldn't keep her mouth shut and her blog posts get picked up by everyone.
Do the damned work or get the hell out. :| Mumble.
