DARN!
It isn't letting me DO anything!
Okay, I'll try to rewrite it and post it here:
I have a few doubts about things that are purchasable, and think they should either be removed or priced higher. I am going to go through one by one and tell you what I think about it:
CREATURES -Element X* dragon = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- Seriously, this is one I think should be removed. I don't think there should be a dragon like this allowed, and if you don't remove it, I sugest something like 30,000 posts or somthin.
-Cyclops = 7,500 scales / 1500 posts --- I'm actually fine with this one, and maybe you could add more of these like unicorns and griffins. MAYBE, they could be priced a LITTLE higher though...
-Poison/Acid dragon = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- EarthGroup dragons already have an acidic power in their elite, so I think this one should be removed. If someone wants it, they can just find a way to become Master of EarthGroup
-Small-ish kracken = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- This one can stay, and I have same comments here as on the cyclops!
-Big bird of paradise = 500 scales / 100 posts --- Higher price, and same as above comment.
FEATURES -Colour-changing eyes = 1,000 scales / 200 posts --- No! I don't want dragons running around with their eyes changing colors! At LEAST price this one up a bunch!
-Spines down back = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- Almost ALL dragons have spines down their back, so I don't think this should be here....
-2 heads = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- This would be weird to RP, so at least raise the price a little...
-4 different colours on a dragon = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- Um... Yea... This can stay with a bit of a higher price and with an agreement of no odd combos... Like, no red with neon green with red and purple spots.
EXTRAS -Title = 1,000 scales / 200 posts --- This can stay, but it should be 300 posts...
-100 karma = 1,500 scales / 300 posts --- I DO NOT think we should be selling karma and this should therefor be removed.
I'm SO sorry I sound so negative, but thats what I think about it. I had considered a shop for the FUTURE of this site, and maybe some of the things that seem impossible to get now would be easier in the future. There WILL be a shop on this site someday, I just didn't think it would be so soon. AGAIN, sorry about my negativeness...

CREATURES -Element X* dragon = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- Because this dragon isn't weak to any elements it is considered strong - but because it has no advantages its just your average dragon. This dragon also has no unique abilaties, so all-in-all its just alive to survive and not to fight. I could up the price, but i think that since we don't have very members, and they have little post counts, then the price should remain a bit low. -Cyclops = 7,500 scales / 1500 posts --- I'm thinking, though, that unicorns and griffons and so on are considered non-dragon characters - y'know, like theres the vampire. -Poison/Acid dragon = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- I could make it only poison - and besides the average dragon, which could be a high-position character, lives for up to 100 dragon years (1 human year) so it would take a while to earn that goal anyway. -Small-ish kracken = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- No comment -Big bird of paradise = 500 scales / 100 posts --- I do think its kinda under-priced, but i don't want anything above 1000 posts - birds of paradise are just basically rainbow-coloured birds, about the size of a hawk, but with a peadraco part tail. So its no HUGE thing. FEATURES -Colour-changing eyes = 1,000 scales / 200 posts --- Ok, ok. I just thought of adding this since Tem the Vampire wanted to have colour-changing eyes for each emotion... I WILL up the price, but i don't mean like having someone changing their eye-colour every 2 seconds, i mean like very occasionally their eyes turn a lighter or darker tint, not go from blue to orange -Spines down back = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- Infact not many actually do... For example when you search dragons in G. images only a little majority have spines. -2 heads = 5,000 scales / 1000 posts --- Ok - i agree -4 different colours on a dragon = 2,500 scales / 500 posts --- Ok - should i say i mean different colours as in close-related colours only? Like Yellow, Orange, Red, Peach EXTRAS -Title = 1,000 scales / 200 posts --- I didn't put it 300 since i think that thats copying WCtRPG -100 karma = 1,500 scales / 300 posts --- Ok - its just that i believe that we should have something other than just a title in Extras... Can we settle a compromise?

Those sound good. On the things like the color changing eyes, and 4 color dragon, just specify on the color groups. The two heads can be removed. The bird can stay. And on the cyclops, because of the non-dragon characters, I think most of the more powerful/stronger/uncommon ones could end up in the shop... Also, anything thats banned (which WILL happen sooner or later) can then be added. I guess Karma could go too, but idk... Any of the elite in EarthGroup (including seniors) can use the power and so it isn't THAT hard to be able to use it... And the Element X dragon... Whats the point of having something without a weakness? All my dragons have spines down their back, so I didn't think it was that uncommon...

The point of a Dragon with Element X is that without a weakness or resistance - it is practically a neutral characters who cannot recieve much damage.
All my dragons don't actually have spines XD
Ok - i will make some adjustments sometime later - when i'm not about to go to sleep XD
