Straightening out the rules

there’s some misalignment here. Lawnomos charged me full price for my share, and ais is trying some scams. avoiding a CFJ yet as even I’m not sure what the right thing to do here is. lets get alignment and then use CfJ to fix. We’ve got: “Any Associate may Buy a Share as a Virtual Action by paying the Share Price in Credits” and “they may immediately perform Buy a Share as if the Share Price is one less than the actual Share Price. “ reading one: “Buy a Share” is the name of the action. It is a Virtual Action, and its performed by paying the Share Price in Credits.—note that under this reading, its unclear if performing “Buy a Share” actually gives you any shares. There is some additional evidence for this reading: the fact that the rules refer to “Buy a Share virtual actions” in multiple places. But they do say “Buy a Share virtual actions” and not “Buy a Share actions” so that still has some ambiguity. reading two: “Buy a Share” is simply the act of buying a share. And while the rules say “Any Associate may Buy a Share as a Virtual Action by paying the Share Price in Credits”, you if they also allow you to perform Buy a Share elsewhere, its not a virtual action unless stated so but also inherent is the idea Buying a Share costs the share price. So “immediately perform Buy a Share as if the Share Price is one less than the actual Share Price” lets you buy a discounted share immediately.
