Quote - To quote Spock, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one."

The needs of the entire community that visits here outweigh the needs of the vendors, or the Rendo management staff.

You can either have a close site, and drive people away (as has been done in the past) or instead try to encourage and increase the traffic here as much as possible.

The decrease in traffic will probably outweigh the small benifits gained to vendors here.

Example: Do you think my advertising my Deadcorn sets here hurt any rendo vendors at all? There's nothing like that here.

Example: Do you think that netherwork's Scarebear ads here hurt any vendors here? There is nothing here that competes with them.

Example: Do you think my posts about FROSTY hurt any vendors here? There's isn't a snowman anything like him here.

People will buy quality products wherever they are located, and most people visit the product showcase to see what's being released everywhere.. we can visit the store here to see what's new there.

There are many more that could be added to that list.
