You posted a list of items. I disagreed with one of those items. You immediately went on the defensive and lashed back over it. Yes, that is an over-reaction.

Actually I just disagreed with your disagreement, and explained why. To which you got bent out of shape and overreacted. Chill.

Whether your unnecessarily defensive and abrasive response was "calmly written" or not doesn't change the fact that it was unnecessarily defensive and abrasive. I didn't attack you. I didn't insult you. I didn't troll or flame you.

nor did I. Your point being?

The record speaks for itself. People can go back and read my post, and your response to it, and judge for themself.

You seem to think that in a conversation, replying and countering your arguments is somehow akin to "Overreacting". Hint for you, it's not. Calling people "arrogant and demonstrably intolerant" because they dare to respond to you is.

To point out the obvious, comparing your behavior to someone else who has repeatedly demonstrated the same in similar situations does not require that person having posted in this thread. Ironically, that you tried to spin it that way is another very Neptune-worthy tactic. You're 2 for 2! Gonna go for a hat trick next?

Looks who's trying to spin You've overreacted, resorted to personal attacks and even personally attacked someone uninvolved.

Sorry to interrupt your little tangent there, but are you going to re-join the conversation and address things I'm actually saying? Or shall I let you just continue rambling off into fantasy-land, arguing over things I haven't.

For the last time, and please pay attention this time: I never brought personal opinion into the topic. You did. I merely pointed out the logistic difference between the current MW system compared to a true AH system.

What logistic differences? But even more, compared to *what*? Every AH system has different nuances. Some involve bidding, some not, some (actually quite a lot of them) even send you all the way to your mailbox to recover the items that you purchased.
Having to walk to an NPC is no sizable difference.

The only real logistic common point between all the auction house systems is that there's a search engine that lets you but stuff from people in a localized area of a world. Further logistics vary from game to game.

There's no "true AH system" as every game has a different one. The Market Wards as they are now are just another variation.
