Because with the commons, each "pose" is really a different colour. I thought it woulds be like that...where the bird is a separate item...the anklets separate..etc. which each item holding the 9 colours *nods*
Then Anka would be more of an item set...than really one item xDD

But I guess this way is cool too....

Thats actually a really good idea. I will have to talk to zypher about that because that would probably go over better <.<

Also for the moment you can wear as many poses for one item as you want. That will change eventually. It won't always be that way. For a good reason as well.

1) the site needs funding. And unfortunately if we sold one item with the ability to wear all poses there would be no reason to donate for more than one of each item. That might seem like money grubbing in some ways. But quite honestly I can't keep paying the for the site without some help from donations at least. I could care less if I made money I just want the site to be able to support itself. And right now we are a small community. We have maybe 230 or so users after you minus mules and what not and yeah if i times that by two that $460 for each of those accounts to own one of each monthly item. In terms of one month that may be ok. But think about us having to save for server costs, art, coding. None of which have been cheap. We have a lot of improvements to make and unfortunately we can't do it without money from donations.

2) Economy. If you only had one item no reason to really buy more. So later when there were less and less of an item our economy would be very unstable and more like Gaia's because there are less items. Things will inflate but the more there are in the system the less they will inflate. You could try and make the point that surely people will stock up on these anyway. But to be honest I know exchangers and a lot of them aren't patient enough to wait for more members, either that or they are too patient making prices unstable. Sure you have your hoarders on a site. You always do but they don't often sell, when they do they tend to inflate it fore there own benefits more so. I think it would be better to be safe and have more items in the system. To have less could kill the market.
