    So.

    they asked everyone what they wanted, they wanted a auction house
    and now they arent gonna do it ?

    the ward system is HORRIBLE, and thats why everyone want an auction house, how many polls is needed ?
    i thought they started working on an AH after the poll, but it seems nothing is started. that means it would take several months for it to even be implemented.

    so much players will be lost over this

    And i can tell you didn't read the ant anology as it is the perfect example of a developement team. I suggest you read it this time. You canb not have a soldier ant hunting food..., or a tunnel builder protecting the queen. That is not their purpose.

    Different teams. Got it.

    Carry on.

    Edit:
    Wait did I imply that soldiers should make an Auction House?
    If so, I apologize, Kilta. I see why you're confused.

There are more things that would still need to be adjusted if that were to happen. As such we aren't currently planning on switching over to an auction house system as of yet.
    Thank you for the reply Bayohne, now people can stop asking for an auction house which is not needed, also its nice to know the devs are still working on the issues with the MWs along with the mile long list there already working on.

    It's not going to stop people asking for the AH though is it ?

    Yoshida said that AH's are being considered so unless he has changed his mind people will keep hoping for them.

    Meh, no matter what they do to the Market Wards they know they're unsustainable that is why they can't even decide on whether or not to scrap the idea of an AH completely. AH is coming sooner or later. Wards are fine, but too unnecessary and too much of nothing.

    You do know what the MW was from right? players used to sit out afk in various zones. It got laggy and casual players didn't have time or could keep they pc or consules on 24/7 trying to sell stuff.

    Honestly AH's are not as fast as you guys are thinking. It could take weeks to sell stuff from an AH, or it can take months for an item to be put on the AH. You guys need to take account the flaws with an AH system also. Not just think of them with rose colored glasses. The only fix would be to scrap both and just have npc sell everything. Then get rid of the crafting and gathering classes.
    Market wards are an interactive AH and they take the same amount of time to use.

    I expected no less of a half thought out response from you. To be honest with you I'm not going to sit here and explain why I think an AH would be better because its pointless, I don't care to convince anyone. However its always fun reading your responses Kilta, you never make much sense.

    In my opinion as long as the market system what ever it is doesn't have Blind or Timed Bidding it has no business being called an Auction House. And all the features of an Auction house besides Blind and Timed bidding can be implemented into the Marketward in some way to resolve peoples issues.

    The Problem is marketing. If people think it doesn't have those features because its still called a Market ward. (IE people still saying there is no search feature when there is) then you have a marketing problem. Its a lose lose for people like me who hate Timed and Blind Bidding and do not want to see the system renamed Auction house just to appease the masses.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.
