Auction House is Bogus

lol seriously? What other MMOs have you played if you have no idea what RMTs are?

Dont laugh at someone because they dont know what an acronym stands for.

And don't assume everyone has dedicated their lives to MMOs

DO however, laugh at people when they ask stupid questions instead of doing a quick search.

I also believe it is save to assume that condescending white knights will always pester people that give reasonable responses.

Considering the guy started out trying to establish he's an MMO veteran or something, the laughter was very, very well justified.

I did not know what RMT was either, but I have played Evercrack (oops Everquest) and WoW. The reason I did not know what the acronym meant, is I never participated in such activities. Thanks for the education

To you developers you should take a lesson for other mmos and allow green and purple on the auction house. Learn from other MMOs please just please allow them on there for people to have help and can spend the money why must you do this.

The reason for removing such items from the markets boards is because of games like Ragnarok Online. Where high-end, low drop rate items could be put up for sale. A small portion of the community would farm these and funnel them to the public. At first they were expensive and then they eventually would saturate the market. A newer player who was good at playing markets could obtain the best items in just a few minutes because these items were tradeable and cheap. The player would not have to do anything to progress is story or the story of the MMO world.

The idea of soul-bound and restricting endgame items also has to deal with progression of the community. In any mmo a majority of the community has to be a certain point before new progression content is added. If only small portion sits in the progression content and everyone else sits in the market board, there would be no reason for any MMO to give people new progression content because the majority of the content hasn't even been completed.

In a logical sense, how do you save the world from chaos 2 years later in progression if you didn't even save it the first time. There really shouldn't be progression because the world wasn't actually saved the first time. When the world needed your help, you and the majority of the community, sat at the market boards.
