    Hello everyone! Our beloved Auction Channel has been replaced. I know some people like it, personally me and quite a few of my friends find it annoying and inconvienent. I want to know what you guys think, I have 3 major reasons why I think it should be removed/reverted.

    *1) It is much harder to auction things, when you have an annoying user that has several auctions queued up and they are auctioning these horrible, spam, troll auctions.

    *2) I think old auction channel, perhaps with some rule changes and tweaks could be a much better solution to our dying auction channel.
    *3) Most definatly, plenty of people have found it annoying, just looking in chat i see the hate for it. The plugin itself is rather bad for an economy server like ours. Faction, or not as big of an economy maybe, but our massive ever expanding economy will engulf this, and turn it into something much worse than previous.

    Tell me what you think, and the best points I will add too this suggestion!

    ~Mayor & Owner of Arridian Empire~

    I like the auction new auction channel bc of the following...

    • you don't need to worry about looking for bids and you can do what ever you want during the auction.
    • you don't need to worry about not getting payed or not getting the item/s.
    • you don't need to meet any where.

    • Staff having to worry about false bidding. Fixed.
    • Staff having to pay close attention to auction chat. Fixed.
    • Auction holder having to pay attention to bids. Fixed.
    • Auction holder having to do anything besides starting the auction. Fixed.
    • Risk of scamming. Fixed.


    There's probably more, but this is what I thought of right now.
    Give it some time. I've learned that people hate change. But in a week or two this would be the same as auction chat was. (except safe and easy)

    I just don't like the minimum bidding/maximum time allowed/only one auction at once ideas. Other than that, I think it does well. And you can still use /ch auc. :p

    Troll auctions are being dealt with and will slow down as punishments are distributed. File a complaint with valid evidence and it seems it will be dealt with.
    This is an absolutely better solution to the previous method of auctioning on ECC and the forums are available for those auctions that do meet the plugin requirements.
    It is new, it will always be annoying when there are changes. Please give it time and I think you will find it much improved over the previous auction methods.
