[dev1251] Penalty for using market search feature

It's alright. I already know the Donkey Knights can pay the surcharge. They have gil coming out of their ass.

Love the pun. Thank you for that.



On topic, the surcharge cap is necessary to keep the direct purchase method from making the wards obsolete. Like it or not, the population has never been in agreement over the AH topic, and this is the best middle-ground solution that could possibly be implemented. Did all the pro-AH people actually think they would get away without an upcharge for convenience?

You know, for a second there…yeah, they kinda did.

Oh that's a good one, well played sir.

It's probably also worth mentioning that in FFXI, the gil sink was from the other side - from listing. But in FFXIV, you'll be able to put stuff up for sale as many times as you like, and gil will only leave the economy when an actual transaction takes place. I like that.

Thanks, glad someone enjoyed it!

Anyway, I also think this is a good middle ground especially after HQ sorting is added.
