		<description><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, when I finished my auctions posting, I saw a 62lv DK spamming /trade &#8220;Free Boost in the Stockade&#8221;</p>
<p>I could use some _Free_ leveling for my banker for travel from (Druid)</p>
<p>I joined the party, and most of them recognize my bank alts name from the AH (Fame may not be a good thing for us though).</p>
<p>The catch about the boost thing is that the DK want to collect wool and silk for leveling tailoring.<br />
So she decided to do it herself, and she even let us keep on the loot (Blueies and greenies).</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t pick much, since the other alts are so eager to loot all the corpses, and I don&#8217;t really need that. (In goblin term, I don&#8217;t even want to do the clicking)</p>
<p>I tried to give her some advice (Since I would said it&#8217;s pretty time consuming on farming wools there)</p>
<ol>
<li>She should consider buying cloth on AH, instead of farming that herself. (Consider 2-3 stacks of wool, per run of stockack, and it&#8217;s sold 1-2G per stack?)<br />
- She refused, I suspect she had no idea of what&#8217;s opportunity cost</li>
<li>Boost people for payment and buy those cloth is</li></ol><p>&#8230;</p>]]></description>

<ol>
<li>She should consider buying cloth on AH, instead of farming that herself. (Consider 2-3 stacks of wool, per run of stockack, and it&#8217;s sold 1-2G per stack?)<br />
- She refused, I suspect she had no idea of what&#8217;s opportunity cost</li>
<li>Boost people for payment and buy those cloth is much more effective (If she&#8217;s not willing to pay for cloth)<br />
- She refused too, for a social reason &#8220;people boost me before, so I shouldn&#8217;t charge others for it&#8221;</li>
<li>The price on AH is on 4-5g due to shortage on weekend, so I told her if she ever consider to buy them, she better do it on weekday</li>
<li>She believe the cloth should be sold at 50% price (50s) on what show on my auctioneer average, and said anyone selling higher than that is a evil trader (Bxxxtard etc). I doubt that anyone will sell her except morons.</li>
</ol>
<p>I was thinking to sell her on 1g (100% market price), for some stock remaining in my mail box, (I would lost 200% if I put that on the market, since they&#8217;re 300%+ now).<br />
But I didn&#8217;t even suggest that (Since she won&#8217;t accept that price anyway).</p>
<p>Finally I offered some tips on where to farm for mageweave. (If you really had to farm, at least find somewhere worth your time)</p>
<p>I can foresee she&#8217;ll be farming the instance for hours to get her tailoring up.<br />
While telling her to stop boosting others is against my own interest (Since I can be boosted too), but&#8230;.</p>
<p>There is not much I could do,<br />
if she just didn’t listen to advice.<br />
But at least she is happy about this (may be).</p>
