Ok. This thread was about the anti-social bot that was made but I see that it's already been discussed. I'd like to speak about something completely different now.
Often times I will read something in a forum or blog about a store. A rather good store with really nice items that has been around for possibly months. Had I not read that one mention of it... IT WOULD BE FOREVER UNKNOWN TO ME. There's something really terrible about that both as a consumer and a merchant.

If someone were to get in my personal space,I would just think it was an accident due to lag or some glich. So it wouldn't even phase me,lol.

Yeah that's the way I felt when I stumbled onto Marien (forget the last name...will fix this later when I'm inworld)'s tropical houses and furniture. I have been in the market for that type of thing for six months and tried tons of different keywords but never found his store on Blue Pearl. The only way I found it was by seeing one of his Samoan huts and clicking on "creator".
Sad that I did not find him sooner.

I’m sure there are lots of really good restraints in my city that I will never eat at. They may fail or flourish as I’m sure so many do. But when I find a restraint or shop or store that I like, I tell others and frequent it as a regular. That’s really all that I can do. Sure its fun to shop around just for the sake of shopping. OMG a man that like to shop. It’s the exploration that I enjoy. Anyway I think you putting way to much pressure on you’re self here. If you don’t find it….its not your fault.

ARE there stores out there I'm not aware of?
/me dives into Landmarks folder and starts paging through hundreds and hundreds of shops, stores, boutiques, vendors, and malls...
I suppose it's possible, however unlikely. There's only one solution!!
/me raises finger in air and shouts triumphantly:
Time to go SHOPPING!!!!

I think there must be lots of really interesting stores with new creators that are not so well known or easy to find. Just looking at the Classifieds, I see I'd have to be forking over probably nearly 50KL a week to be able to compete in getting products noticed so that's kind of a lot of L's to be dropping every week, especially with the generalized shopping slow down we seem to have been seeing over the past few months. I think many of us who are not old, established and well known may not be able to invest that sort of money into weekly ads.

The more they spent on posting the Classified, the less likely I go there first. It's like they're trying "TOO Hard".

It's like they're trying "TOO Hard". Only time I go to the highest is for things like specific animations... I go to the lower, since I find they often have more unique items, and just haven't had the sales to afford 50000 L$ advertising...
