1,000,000 times this. There is a reason why I play here instead of those other MMO's.

Why isnt gfay a trade hub as well? Atleast if we spread the market around the need for the bazaar could be placated for now?

Because almost half of Norrath can't buy or sell there and getting there for them is also a pain in the butt.

As much as I hate EC for a variety of reasons it gives the game a community feel. In addition, probably over half the server enjoys that aspect of the game.

I will say though, limiting the /auc function would definitely help the spam. You'd have to balance that with the full time vendors who may have multiple lines worth of goodies to sell.

I only suggested gfay because that was another old marketplace back in the day. I dunno why truly. But why not spread the market to Nro? Or split the market between low-end and high-end product? I think this is something the players could do but i doubt that we could actually encourage it enough to really bring change. Besides, i'm talking about doing something just as radical as bringing back the bazaar>.>

bazaar is the devil

L2EC

That was a terribly boring cave. I didn't like the afk buyout-only vendors.

I could see access to the /bazaar window available in ec and major cities where current online players can list their goods for sale in a searchable database but still require meeting to make the transaction.

lol

Bazaar window would be ok, in EC, but no search function. You shojld have to wander and browse. More flea market, less Amazon.

Just because we don't want to stoop to the despicable levels that some other traders feel the need to be at doesn't mean that we don't know how to sell items and aren't willing to sell items. We just don't want to sell items like you!

I suggest an EC rotation. Class F (fair) traders can use the tunnel on Mon, Wed, and Fri. Class C (cutthroat) traders can use the tunnel on Tues, Thurs, and Sat. Sunday will remain FFA of course.
