Question/Vent about Markets....

Kimberly Warwillow's picture

So, I have been looking around at various markets looking for a place for a new shop and I am VERY, VERY frustrated. The lag at most places is beyond ridiculous, so any place with decent traffic has that going against them from the start. Its worse than some horse markets and I can't figure out why as Meeroos themselves are very low lag.

But, my biggest frustration comes from the layout. Many are set up as row after row of tables. The ones that aren't tables have little boxes or circles on the ground for you to set up your roos or nests. I have found very few that have a traditional market set up, meaning shops, real-live, honest to goodness, shops that I can walk into and look at nests on shelves or something along those lines. They existed all over the place for bunnies, and still do for kitties, for legitimate reasons, horses can't fit in shops and need stables, but really, why can't I have a little shop for my Meeroos????

I, personally, won't wander too long in the "table" markets, they are tacky and hurt my eyes as all I see are rows and rows of nest hover text (not to mention the laaaag!) The boxes or circles on the ground aren't as bad as the tables, and if they aren't bunched up too close together with tons of shiny grass and trees and mushrooms, they REALLY aren't so bad, but its still not to my taste.

My issue is I am a little ocd (or a lot ocd) I have shelves with nests set up and the nests are lined up perfectly on the x/y/z axis and so are my signs, the rotation is perfect is well. I don't like disorder in markets, and I certainly don't like it in my shop, if its a little circle on the ground, I can't set up shelves and signs in an orderly fashion. (Probably should mention I am a nurse in the operating room in rl, so order and neatness is ingrained in me....we won't mention my desk though!)
