Hoarders + The Importance of Trade
What is up everyone, it's your boy. Back again just dropping some knowledge on here. Just figured I would touch on this topic due to all of the messages I have received between my main account [this one] and my secondary account [MegadethfanCSS2] in the past 2 days. Everyone is hitting me up saying "Hey what is up with new CSS clips?", "Do you have any of the new CSS clips?", "How about you buy some of the new CSS clips and upload them?" and things along those lines. I think it is fair to say that I probably am king on here when it comes to clips from the Candid Stinky Soles Store as I am known for buying loads of clips and I consistently try to keep up and get new ones. The thing is though, it seems like the lot of you think that I am just made of money and I can always buy CSS clips whenever lol. I have bought over 400 CSS clips, many of which are even customs not on the CSS store. The thing is though, guys, I cannot just do it myself. We all have to buy clips in order for the community to thrive. You cannot just expect one person to buy all of the clips and then you just take from them without contributing back. That is why we all need to contribute in some sort, that way it can build community and establish trade. That is what trading is. You have clip “A” and I have clip “B”. Let’s trade so both of us have clips “A” and “B”. One person is not supposed to be expected to get clips “A-F” upload them to the Hub and then you just download them lol. I have no problem with people downloading clips from the Hub, as long as they also contribute back to the community by sharing clips they purchased as well. That is not hoarding, hoarding is simply when you take without giving anything back. This does not just apply to CSS clips, but clip trading across any of your favorite stores. Snoop around, reach out also before buying clips guys haha. It will also help you save money, and everyone benefits. A lot of you guys buy clips that I already have. Instead of 3 or 4 people buying the same clip that one person already has, each person can buy a different clip and then trade so that way everyone benefits instead of everyone just having the same thing. To grow a collection like me, or like many other of my good friends on here, it is not about working harder…it’s about working smarter
