Me too. Hally should become a writer

Do something in TV. No wait, don't. Because then I would have to wait a week for a new episode of yours to come out.

hmm... i feel like a noob, but what does it mean to be "in the main market"? and to be on top or on the bottom of your hut? I don't have any clue... can someone please explain?

When you click the shops link on neo and go to the Marketplace, that's the main market. A lot of newbies will go there when they don't know how to use the SW. I use the Marketplace when I get a faerie quest. I'm not positive what the top or bottom of the hut means. I think it's when you go the Marketplace there's huts you click on to take you to the shops according to user shop sizes. There's huts for shops 1-10, 10-20 etc. So being at the top of your hut would be if you were shop #1, #10, #20 and so on.

I also am looking forward to the next Chapter installment.

It's actually shop 1, 11, 21, 31, etc. Next chapter going up soon!

I /probably/ shouldn't even be posting this stuff, some of the stuff that I did was pretty bad.

I dont really understand how malling makes money. Do you overprice items and people buy them cause its more convenient to look them up in a mall or something?

As bad as it sounds, you rip people off. Particularly new players. Even more particularly, new kids.

For example, if somebody wants to buy their pet toys, but doesn't know of any lists of toys, they might click the "marketplace" tab, and then start browsing around.

A big source of revenue is with faerie quest items -- players who know about the shop wizard, but not about the quest help board, might venture into the marketplace looking for quest items. Actually, even I do that sometimes when I'm too lazy to ask for help on the neoboards (but want the cheap stat point... even if it means paying 2000 np instead of 500, it's still cheaper and easier than training).

Lines like that are like meth-level addiction. I know they are cliche, but there is a reason they are cliche. they work. I'm ready for the next installment already. xD

Maybe he likes to switch it up a little? I guess hally likes a change now and then.

It's because he's a she. Of course.

And Lexicon, the best part of his sig comes from me. =)
