Think of it this way: Someone with 10 black longs worth isnt automatically expert-ish with trading. This is simply a big assumption, and again, I aim not to attack the staff as I dont think they have done anything wrong, just that this requirement seems far fetched.

Claiming that "it isnt the only requirement" doesnt really make sense? Despite it being 1 or multiple requirements, that in no way justifies a requirement that 90% of the wiki does not obtain.

Another thing: What if someone has 9 black longs worth, or even 8? Rarity should not determine intelligence or know-how with rares. Maybe actually take the time to test someone on their know-how instead of straight up denying them because they arent rare enough.

Honestly, there are so many GREAT moderators that wont even get the chance because of it. Whats laughable is that the staff tried to bypass the backlash through making our arguement look silly, yet its quite clear that there is one big issue here:

You simply cant determine intelligence by rarity. Yt end up assuming things. I agree that we should do a test. For example, a test question would look like this.

How many black longs is a light pink headdress worth?

1.  Don't know. ( Automatic 3 points )

2. 2 - 3.5 Black longs.

3. 7.5 - 8 Black longs.

4. 14.5 - 15 Black longs.

5. 12 - 13 Black longs. Anyone can just look up the answers on the wiki though. The reason we want you to have a minimum about of worth is so you can keep up with changing worths of items and update the pages accordingly.
