Even though I do own a krawk, I find this sad

This is not a pet that people are willing to lend for avatars (yes I know it's not allowed but ppl still do it :/) and now that the trans potion is 1mil+ owning a krawk is no longer a goal for many MANY Neopians....
Hmm, and why not?
I don't see why people would drop their goals just because of a little inflation.
Technically all that means is a little more work is going to be done.
If it's their goal, they should do it no matter what.

Maybe what she intended to say was "owning a krawk is no longer a justifiable and obtainable goal for many"?
I can see how it would be so. If I use the Lab Ray as an example, when I first got the Lab Ray it cost me less than 100k, now for the Lab Ray people have to pay almost half a million neopoints - the mere frustration of knowing that it was once 100k and is now 5 times the price will be enough for some users to despair, the thought that one will always have to "chase" the price as it continually increases is also another thing that may put many off. The fact of the matter is that sometimes it's not just "a little inflation" and sometimes for those users who have games as their only source of neopoints inflation can increase faster than they can make their neopoints. Yes, inflation may stop eventually but do you honestly expect young kids and teens to understand this?
Something Has Happened!
You are now eligible to use 'Ghost Krawk' as an avatar on the NeoBoards!
Avatar #157 and this one now take position as the most expensive avatar for myself yet.
It seems Neo isn't a game for newbies anymore unless they learn to restock FAST :/
