    Yes, the way I flaunt my Chinese dress and Collector's edition mounts...except I don't flaunt them, I use them, sometimes, and sometimes not. Like everything else. Flaunting is very much in the eye of the beholder. A person wearing a $100,000 diamond ring is not flaunting it simply because you want it and can't have it. They're just wearing something that they have. The problem is not them flaunting the ring, it's more about the envy and jealousy you have in your heart over something that another person has.

    P.S. I must also add that I feel that tug sometimes too for things I can't afford. I'm not sure how long it took me to learn this lesson, and it's not a perfect lesson since I can still feel that tug. but I know what it is, and I can put it into perspective.

    And why should you care about that? It is not like people will lock you out of groups because you do not have the $100 emote.

    Learn, explore, and think for yourself. Make your choices, take actions, and let yourself be free.

    Yeah... I mean I'll agree with the ridiculousness of an emote hidden behind a $100 decoration. But.

    ...Really?
