For someone who's telling me I'm not thinking, you clearly didn't read the full thread and fail to realize that not everything in the real world is going to go your way.

I've been staff on this wiki for 2 years. I have seen many staff members come and go, half of which didn't help the wiki at all, and I know sometimes it isn't their fault, because they'll tell me excuses like that they don't trade as much as I do or they don't have enough rare items. Most of the page changes are made by me and Lilli. And I'm sick of being one of the sole people this wiki relies upon, especially when there's hate and threats directed at me REGULARLY over this wiki. I'd like to have people who can help with updating the worths of items, that would be great, so that we can update items faster, which means less threats and hatred towards staff, and a better wiki. I made it explictly clear in the thread that I don't need more people who can delete spam, take care of drama, etc - those are all very simple jobs our current staff already does and is capable of - I need more people who can help with the everchanging worths of big rare items.

Hence, they need experience with big rare items. Can you know rarity without being rare? Yes. But will you know what the value of a Magenta Item changes to and how hard it is to trade off without being rare? No, I highly HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt you will - because that requires having the item, doing trade attempts on the item, seeing people offer you the item, etc. Going on the wiki and memorizing what the wiki says is not enough. Having your buddy say something to you about rares is not enough. You will have to know WHAT THE NEW VALUE of a currently fluctuating in value item IS. If you're going to tell me people who cannot afford a Headdress will be able to keep up with the worths of Magenta Items, then you don't know what you're talking about. Even I, and I have around 160 Black Long worth, still need help when it comes to Magenta Items. The value of Magenta Cloak and Magenta Socks are fluctuating so frequently, on like a week-to-week basis. There used to be a staff member who was worth like 500 Black Longs and she knew very well about Cloaks and Socks, having owned them before, having seen people trade for them, and whatnot so I mainly relied on her but she quit (not her fault she quit though).

I will not be changing the requirement. Stop bothering me about it. Learn that not everything in your life will go your way.
