edit: I should note that I post gems about 3 times a day. Once in the morning, once before raid, and once before bed. Hardly every 10 minutes.

Mechano-hog Mamba

I've sold two of the three Mechano-hogs I received in exchange for that bear, so today I went the old-fashioned route: spamming in Trade. It was very entertaining, especially the people who thought 5000g was a reasonable price for an item which costs over 12500 in vendor mats alone. There was also a particularly funny troll who viciously proclaimed that hogs are ugly and "anyone who wants one got it a year ago." (Obviously incorrect since I sold two in a week.) Upon inspection I noted that he did not have the Get to the Choppa! achievement. His opinion? Or jealousy? Methinks the lady doth protest too much....

:P

dear Bobbins

I am truly sorry you felt the need to be a raging twat on my blog. What you don't seem to realize is that this is a personal blog, not one that I intend to market as a treasure trove of gold-making tips. There is nothing wrong with those types of blogs - in fact, I read and enjoy them frequently - but that is not what this blog is about. This blog is simply a chronicle of my personal journey, which I hope is in some way enlightening to others and at the very least a record for myself to look back upon.

I love the free market. I've learned a lot and supplemented my previous economic knowledge by playing in and observing the World of Warcraft market. Watching Trade and the Auction House change is exceptionally fascinating and educational.

Nowhere in my previous post did I say I wanted to force anyone out of the glyph market. Nowhere did I say I hated this guy for doing what he is doing. Nowhere did I say I was NOT making a profit still (I make glyphs for the cost of parchment.....6g glyphs do not in any way hurt me). Nowhere did I say I was not making gold from Inscription right now.

You should brush up on your reading comprehension skills before you flounce through and boldly proclaim my blog needs work. Before you proclaim I "obviously don't like the free market" when - let me bold this for you - you read a post about my personal feelings on the matter, NOT about concrete facts of my strategy or response to this deep undercutter. Personally I'm with Markco and think that deep undercutting is an irritating and inefficient strategy for glyphs, BUT is easily outfoxed, outlasted and outgamed.

My parting advice to you is to go farm and do dailies. You are so crippling unobservant that I doubt you could make over 402,000 gold in two months, like I did. I hear Argent Tournament dailies can give you a couple hundred a day....

oh lawd

This guy is crashing down the whole glyph market because he's "tired of low thresholds." Wut? Does he even know what a threshold is? Because the only low-selling glyphs are the garbage ones that scribes make to level, and are barely worth selling because of that. So he....crashes the whole market. Uh huh.

This is one of those times I wish someone would toss Gevlon into a fiery volcano; his disciples are the most facepalm-worthy asshats.
