forget the economics

it's not as if it hasn't be calculated, reexamined, dissected, analysed. multiple times. and before i forget, by 'it' i mean the grand exchange.

if it's as they say, and it isn't going to need no talking, well then [insert appropriate expression of jubilation]

what more's there to say of such an admirable tool that's to reintegrate erstwhile business illiterate people back into that world of trade? (y'know. commerce, it's such a... foreign word...)

come to think of it, i don't quite know who i mean by people. only encountered two other people who remotely thought this a problem, and even then, it's not a problem. it's an... inconvenience.

anyhow, if it renders me able to trade without having to stand in a bank shouting, and promptly scrambling to click 'off private', then scrambling to switch it to 'friends private', then scrambling again to click 'hide public' before regretting it all and retreating to a basement/second floor to switch everything back to 'on' and talk, or sort out pms that seem worth answering, all the while berating my own stupidity. the perils of f2p.

(of course, by the next time i venture out a-trading, i'd have forgotten that last episode, and y'know what they say about history.)

biiig incentive to become a member, but i persuade myself i'd almost rather shut up and wish the rest of the world would do the same. ohyes i am such a people person.

i think the meanest thing they could do right now is take away the talking bit of the trade but make grand exchange members. touch wood. otherwise i could always just wallow in my unwillingness to do business, gleefully stumbling on people selling/buying things that correspond to my own interests as often as the grand exchange allows it.

back to economics.

whoo. is it quite so possible to die from financial shortsightedness?
