They say 3% of the people use 5-6% of their brain. 97% use just 3%, and the rest goes down the drain. I will never know which one I am. But I bet you my last dime 99% think we're "3%", 100% of the time.
They say 72% of all statistics are made up right there on the spot. 84.4% of people believe them whether they're accurate statistics or not. Now I will never know what you believe But I do know there's no doubt: I need another double shot of something 90 proof, this is too much to think about.
"Hey this is great! This game sounds like an A-Hole magnet! Consequently, that means less A-Holes in other games, and more fun for the rest of us!"

"Why should teachers be obligated to teach to a curriculum to all the other subjects but not science? I say let them teach math that contradicts mathematics,"
If people are that worried about the prices of a given AH area, why not set the bid price to something affordable for the lowbies/crafters, and the buyout price to something prohibitively high to deter the profiteers/AH griefers? Then check your auctions some time before they expire, and cancel all the ones that the profiteers are trying to get on the cheap. Auction cancellations aren't overly costly, even if someone bids on your stuff.
