ok - I'll admit that I glanced over this conversation without reading every post in depth. I read the first two pages when the post was first started but only glanced thorugh the final tow pages tocaus, but I have a question

how is banning this "crafting mafia" a help? Isn't it just forming a different type of bully system?

I mean by not banning them people can imply support (purely circumstantial at best). however, once you add something else to the GM's duties like banning people for "price fixing" then you have a whole 'nother type of heavy.

do I agree with price fixing? no - but I don't think banning is the answer either.
