[ the problem with aesthetic shops ] im sure if you're part of the aesthetic community, you've seen at least one shop. they're rlly common. but there's a problem with them. im not sure if you know this, but clout chasers are usually looked down on. clout chasers are people who basically chase fame. in shops, how do you pay? follows, likes, shoutouts, etc. now whats in common with all these payments? they give more popularity to the worker. i think its understandable ppl want to be payed for making smth for someone, and this is the only form of payment. thank you for taking the time to read this comment some ideas you have for payments in shops - estella #rant edit: i thought abt this, and a possible solution for this is by doing a mall sim inspired by Palace of Points (PoP). 4 those who havent heard of this, here's the basic info - You join a studio and have a starting balance, in PoP it's 100 points - You can then use those points to "buy" virtual things - Ran out of money? No worries, you can sell your own items made by you please lmk whether y'all think this is a good idea, i may do this
