Guildie got AH scammed, threatening to unsub and delete her account

Clearly not as the option to sort by Bid would still be an option and you’d still have people whining about it for the exact same reason we have right now. You only entirely remove the possibility of this occurring with zero changes in the population’s behavior by REMOVING the option to sort by Bid and REPLACING it with the option to sort by Buyout.

That is not a simple change because that is a change in functionality of the baseline AH, and for that reason we aren’t getting such a change without a much better argument than people getting “scammed” by non-scams.

don’t tell me about changes being too complicated when they are doing HvH BGs, dude.

“Fix” means something is broken. The AH is working as intended.

Try again… Or better yet, stop complaining and download an add-on to prevent what your complaining about.

Never said it was too complicated, I said that you don’t get a “simple change” when the functionality you want for the purpose you want necessitates REMOVING an existing function.

You need a reason to remove sorting by Bid for your suggestion to work, otherwise these non-scams don’t go away.

being observant to buyout prices is a simple fix. :nerd_face: :smoking:

The reason being so “observant” is required is because scammers exist. If scammers didn’t exist, a quick glance at the price would be all that’s needed, because you wouldn’t be worried about an item having a buyout 1000x what it’s worth.

Who is to say what something is actually worth.

yes yes, fascinating question. that 1 runecloth could very well be worth 999g. thanks 4 input :roll_eyes:

Ok Fasc good job being a Blizzard apologist again I guess.

“I wouldn’t have to be personally responsible for ANYTHING if bad people stopped being bad!!” - this isn’t the intelligent take you think it is.

Sorry about your lack of personal responsibility, adulthood is hard but you’ll manage, eventually.

PS - Copping out with this “apologist” tripe is just pathetic. You’re not even trying, you’re just mad.

This is why my bag of peanuts has a warning that says “warning this product may contain peanuts”

It’s when people constantly buy it.

warning people about the AH not ordering prices correctly is not the same thing, sorry.

No, but begging blizzivision to make changes due to not paying attention is.

Uh oh someone wants a Utopia.

Ok this only works with total control.

So we will have one way to do everything. Any deviation results in account suspension. Every auction is the same stack size and same price.

Every quest is given with exacting instruction “go twenty meters and turn 35 degrees to the left, go 2 miles……” any deviation is an account suspension.

In fact the game plays itself and you just watch. This will maximize fun while minimizing the risk of a mistake.

Can’t have people making mistakes and being accountable for it…. That’s evil. So please sit and watch this game play itself, it’s loads of fun.

Yeah it is. You want to be free from responsibility for any action you make.

You want to be able to do the following. Pretend you have a Lethal peanut allergy. You are hungry so you run into a local store, find an employee, scream “cheapest snack now! Or get your manager” employee points at 5 pounds of peanuts, you buy peanuts, eat peanuts, go to the hospital. Then you take everyone to court and argue there was no warning label on my peanuts telling me my peanuts are peanuts. None of this is my fault, that employee should have known I was allergic to peanuts, someone force them to warn me that peanuts are peanuts.

You’ve been lying to yourself. The only thing made up in this thread is it won’t get you hurt. I spent 150g last night driving up bids to ruin these type auctions and cost the poster gold. I’m going to do it every day. If they start spam cancel again, it’s getting reported. That’s That. Not much to this. Good luck with the AH you in game God you.

Difference between me and MVP is I am an actual game expert. I don’t want to be an MVP, I turned that down.

Uh sure…. Ok. Mr. Game expert, how is it you don’t understand how the AH works?
