Market Wards vs AH

[Abriael]

Yea...that's your last defensive argument...

How about taking a look at all the private server MMOs out there.

YOu can see what it's like yourself..but then you might not like the fact it's less high tech then you think in terms of item ID manipulation.

You forgot a little detail. Those private server MMOs have been taken up when the code was already done, finished, polished and tested. You quite evidently have no idea of what it takes to get to that point.

Actually Bazaars are harder to implement then an AH. It's actually connected to a player that has to be track.

Actually Bazars aren't connected to players. They are connected to retainers. And retainers are just code. They aren't independent entities with an AI that may suddenly decide to rebel, you know?
A retainer is nothing else than a module of a database. The implementation is slightly different (you add the items to a retainer, and the retainer's inventory is added to the database as a whole, instead of having you adding the items to the database directly), but not THAT much different.

Every other difference is cosmetic.

Stop trying to devalue AH because you want Market wards to look good.

There's no need to devalue anything. The Market wards ARE an AH with a graphical interface. The only big different is that the Market Wards are already there, an AH has to be done from scratch, and the development and testing resources it would need are better used elsewhere.

Because it's complexity for the sake of complexity.

Why figure out a faster way to carry buckets on your head...when you can carry buckets...with you know hands. It was foolish to carry buckets on your head in the first place anyway, that's why market wards are so bad.

Must be why millions of people in the world carry buckets on their head? Are they all foolish?
What about those that use a yoke? all foolish? What about a truck? What a bunch of fools.

It's not complexity for the sake of complexity. The MW already include features that no AH has.
