LOL... lets see more on this vain.

Net worth, folks. You think you're worth more than I am because you have a L98 CC and 80 million in gil? Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm way past needing any form of gil. What I do is generate more cashflow and assets in a week than half of you put together. It's not 4 million a week. It's 4 million a BASTOK. On a bad day. Could they do it without me? Probably. I'm just the founder, I'm not the machine that I built. But it operates on a business model, and if it's a business, no matter how much I try it's going to be hard to separate me from what I do and what I own. What I own is more than anything you could ever craft. I deal in rare/ex. I deal in wins. I deal in accomplishment by the dozens at a time. And when I HAVE to deal in gil on behalf of others, I talk to the REAL first class of the game, not a beggar who thinks they're **** asking 5-10k for an ancient coin.
ok... so your argument now is that you are better than everyone else because you own a dynamis shell that runs twice a week... and that you sell stuff for them makes your net worth greater than other peoples? Oh, and that said shell gets your members ra/ex gear. Lastly, all of this makes you first class (wow you’re a fucking elitist), and that no one else on these boards can touch you? That no body could hold a candle to your net worth? I beg to differ.
I’ve owned and run my shell for over a year and a half now. We have an associated Dynamis shell, which while separate from Kaizen certainly has a pretty strong connection. I deal in ra/ex, I deal in multiple wins a day vs your two a week, I deal in sellable items that are so rare no one would ever think to treat them as anything but ra/ex, and of course, I also deal in gil. You make 8mil in a week? I make, for my LS, 60mil+ in one of our weekly fights. You got 10AF this week? We got a number of our members their first AF+1s this week, one of our bards a priceless item from Vrtra, killed Tiamat, Nidhogg, fafnir a few times... and two of those fights gave us over 200mil... that is what i did this week.
Loveless got three of their dynamis members some Northlands AF, and a 100c along with the singles. They also got a number of their newer members access to Xarcbard. No, I am not a leader of loveless so perhaps I do not have a right to feel proud of their accomplishments, but the leaders of it are part of my leading team in Kaizen, and I am proud that they work together as well as they do in all their endeavors... and I do feel responsible for bringing them together.
There are two primary differences between you and I though Peregrine, the first is that I recognize that while I may have started the machine as you call it, it is through all the work of my members that it runs... what we make is not MINE, it doesn’t add to MY NETWORTH... it is OURS, just like the currency you are selling on other peoples behalf is THEIRS. Secondly, I’m not the little attention whore that you are. I don’t go out of my way, describing my shells accomplishments just to make me feel better than those who dislike me.

Decidence couldn't touch my bazaar without going broke, and neither could you. You saw it out in battalia. lol100million. Take that change elsewhere. My bazaar is 1st class onry.
TL95 mongers who think they're first class are on their way out. Average Joe is catching up, and you can hear him. And you don't like it.
I know I am not the first to say this, and I doubt I will be the last... but your hypocrisy is like no one else’s I have ever encountered. Your anti-elitist attitude does not match up with "My bazaar is 1st class onry" and “Take that change elsewhere”. There are numerous other quotes by you that fail to pair up with what you claim to believe.... Most of them have been picked out by others though, I’m not going to waste anyone’s time here by bringing them back up.
You know, that screen shot that ezikiel posted makes me laugh every time I see it.... especially with your recent “everyone is my fan boy” kick, where people are allegedly scrambling for your attention at every opportunity they have.... seems as though that is exactly what you want. A picture truly is worth a thousand words at times. You really do need to come off your high horse, I bet you would be a very valuable asset to the community if you would. Now for a few endnotes.
To the people who frequent this board for information on crafting, I am sorry for further propagating this flame.
