as sad as the situation is, I have come the conclusion that the only ones who can solve this issue is us. The only way I can see calls for alot of patience and preservation. There is some slowdown of the cross tiers, but not as fast as I would like to see it, but he fair trades ae beginning to make an impact on them,,,,,I thing some are beginning to see the damage they are causing to to smaller FS's, but the impact the FS's have on closing off to crosstraders may be the answer to our problem....we can hold out if our FS is Strong and for the independant players we must try to protect their wishes and hlep them stay fair traders.....do not trade any crosstrades that are not fair, and our persistance will eventually pay of...there will always be the greedy ones, but I suspect even they will change their turns when they find no trades. I do hipe this works and is ow just a pipe dream
