Also if you ask for an AH, we will probably get a bidding system, which will be alot more of a time sink than the wards, if you want buying from the search, or a desk outside ask for that, not an AH because you dont want an AH you want a direct buy system.
As I said before FFXI's AH was not a proper AH, it was a direct buy system where you didnt know the price, also it was a huge time sink (which apparently what you dont want) when you wanted the best deal, you want to buy say an Iron Spear, you check history and it says last 10 sales were 10k, so you bid 10k, rejected, 15k, rejected, 15.5km rejected and it goes on in 500g increments to 30k. That took ages, infact longer than the wards do now.
