Well i think they busted the bots lol ( that's good! but i think that's why there were so many herbs on the AH before, I was just in denial lol ).. I used to see thousands of stacks for 60g a stack or less.. not I'm lucky to get 10 stacks for that. There are never thousands of stacks anymore at any price.. Its hard to get enough ink to make my 6XDarkmoon cards a day now 8( I logged in my druid to farm me up some and it takes forever to get enough to feed 6 toons!

The trinkets are only selling for 10-15 k now as well.. not sure the math and what would be the most I should pay for a stack of herbs to make profit. Time to shift my focus to somthing else for profit ( utilizing multi accounts ) still have not leveled my 5 fishing Monks yet 8)

I've been making most of my money selling trillium, fish, and inks. But it's kinda a pain the only thing I can multibox is the fishing. I still haven't even gotten my farm going... :(

I was fine getting ink for 45 scribes for like 3 months

Then herbs dried up and i couldn't find 400 stacks of herbs a day for the life of me.

Lots of bot bans recently.

They've been slowly banning them for over a month. If their methods are found out then they won't be back till one of the bot makes figures out a way around it, which likely won't be easy this time.

They couldn't. It made me 3.5m gold in 4 months.

Yea.. i joined in kind of late.. i have 500k right now with a few trinks to sell. But i have spent hours spamming trade for herbs. I will keep making the scrolls everyday, so if there is ever a ton of herbs at a fair price.. i will buy them and hopefully be able to turn all those scrolls into cards. The price of the trinks keep going down, so not sure it will be worth it soon. But i will be happy to have the scribes next expansion hehe. I will have more by then.

Don't know how you guys do it. It takes me forever just to get 100k then I spend it all! Lol

If you had several scribes when the MoP went live.. you made way more than i have. The first trinkets that were on the AH were selling for 50-80k each.. and stayed that way for a few months. I started leveling my scribes in Dec, a bit late. I have not sold a trinket for more than 25k. Last month i got 9-18k and no more on each trinket i sold. I have six scribes. But a lot have 8+ . Right now there just is not enough herbs to keep my 6 fed.

I have four scribes, 2-3 transmuters... my main on my shaman team is one of my herbers and I discovered today that I am level 88, been hitting the herbs and never learned the 526-600 skill... arrrghhh!!! But I still make tons just from dumping herbs when ever I am out questing.

I leveled my druid from 86 to 90 picking herbs and killing any mobs in the way.. ZERO quests after jade forest. Yes.. it took a long time.. but that was before the herb spawn nerf. I cant stand to do it now. ANd it would take me days to get what i need to feed 6 scribes.

Yeah I had that issue... what funny is I picked up all the green tea or what ever the 86 level herb is in the forrest and some others for cheap 2-3 months ago and still have 2-3 scribes full of ink where I spent 10-15K. I also had a farmer that would sell me fools cap for around 40 gold a stack which is what I was using for card ink. I basically leveled one and then used left over ink to power level the other 3 by using current herbs vice the old stuff.

I gathered a few levels in Cata but I don't have that much time any more.
