AH info lost in the sauce?

...I have nothing against the market wards, let me put that out there now. I'm just curious about the auction house. Both have strengths and weaknesses, some prefer one some prefer the other. I got that, just want to know what's up with it.

1 thing to remember your forgetting


we were NEVER promised an AH

they said theyd considering it, but it was never promised

Lol, sorry, I had to/

No, Adding Timed or Blind Bidding would, and no one likes those.

....that's right, and I'm pretty sure I mentioned that I was just curious about what was going on with it.

this letter focuses on 1.19 and not the overall plan for the future, so thats where your info on it went to

everything listed is going in 1.19, or is preppiung for 1.20, and obviously anything left out means its not going in 1.19 and youll just have to wait til info on 1.20 is given(and its related stuff)

Okay then I guess this thread means I want to know what's going on with it, whether its in 1.20 or not.

You're assuming I was talking about an FFXI style auction house. Sad to say I wasn't.

As for timed bidding.... They could just not add it. It's called a buy now button. Adding a bidding feature is completely optional.

Its not an auction without a bidding mechanic. Sorry, but thats the cold hard facts. If there is no bidding its a straight market.

you should know by now people dont want an auction house

they just want it to be called an auction house

You're arguing semantics. So keep it named the market wards and change the functionality. Regardless, what you described in your post in the new AH/mail/bank thread would be great.

I don't give a flying crap what it's called as long as it isn't as annoying as it is now.
