Wards full again

[Dynamis]

Some of you people with your amazing ideas on how to get around not being able to sell your things in the proper ward make me laugh. Let's go to the auto parts store to buy some food. Lets carry a bag of crap and hope someone looks into it and buys something.

Get over yourself and your wonderfull ideas.

The wards are segregated for a reason. If it's fail, say it's fail, or fix it.

Aside from changing it, or making a new way to sell stuff. I say just make it reset like once a week. Then if you are not active, you don't get to sell things. That is just my option though.

people would complain even more
once a week was what happened when we crashed the wards and reset, do you really think people wanna go back to having to replace their retainers every so often?

[Aloysous]

No, I agree it would be a pain. It would have its pros and cons just like any other Idea or fix for this. I just hate trying to place my retainer and having it be full. I will admit if I'm not keeping up on my retainer, I'm just taking up space some one else could use.

And people called me a troll when I said MW can't be fixed. No matter how much patchwork you do on this Frankenstein, it's still a rotten monster that nobody can deal with.

Let people buy and sell items from the item search screen.

/fixed.

"NO WE NEED A PHYSICAL PLACE CALLED AUCTION HOUSE OTHERWISE ITS NO GOOD"

Doesn't fix the full ward problem. Take your own sig's advice for once.

What's the point of keeping your retainer in the (correct) ward when the majority of buying and selling is handled separately?

The original concept of MW hasn't existed since the addition of item search (making it downright trollish to argue that a concept that hasn't existed for months can't be fixed. No shit sherlock). Expanding it to cover the tasks of an AH is the next step.

Because even if you spread out the retainers across multiple wards, there will be a point where ALL wards are full or the system is, again, too laggy. What was our limit before the server fixes? ~600 retainers? What's our limit now? Can this machine support retainers from 1000 players? 2000? 10,000? Somehow I doubt it. The limit for a menu/text based system is several orders of magnitude higher than this.

Keeping physical retainers incurs a huge, huge overhead for simple actions like item transactions and places a completely unnecessary strain on the machine. It makes the design awkward and unintuitive at best, and probably equally hard to develop further.

And there is absolutely no functionality that MW does now that can't be replicated in an infinitely more user-friendly menu/text based system.
