Would love to see a post from BW at least acknowledging this problem. The economy is a huge part of any MMO, and after the duplicating exploit of credits, some re-assurance that they are working towards fixing the GTN would be much appreciated.

For some players, like my wife, the current GTN is a deal breaker and will cause her to lose interest in the game quickly. BW please fix this to keep your player base.

This happened to anyone else ?......

Used to get a posted message telling me what I'd sold and how much for, 'money arrive within the hour'.
Now the message just says 'the item you sold..... you will recieve the amount you asked' (or words to that effect).
No longer tells me what exactly I sold. Just shows the money received.
Wondering if this is a bug caused by a patch.

Not a major complaint but helps to know what's been sold.

Actually, I get that on some sales, and on others I still get the msg that tells what was sold. I checked it today and it is still sending me both types. I have not discerned a pattern yet.

But yes, I agree that I would like to know what was sold....

I'm extremely annoyed with the UI and all thse spam mails we recive, what kind of designer is this? Did they hire some random bum from the street who never saw a MMO before, not to say WoW?

I thought WoW had a poor AH UI, till I saw ToR's, then suddenly WoW lookooed amazing, awesome and topnotch aside from the Auctioneer mod.

Maybe it's to prevent too much lag, that they have designed such utterly bad UI.

The AH, sorry GTN, needs a major overhaul.
The search function is really really bad. There should be more filter options when you search for stuff. Also Hotlinking items into Name Filter would be a very welcome feature.

And the feedback you get when you sell stuff is close to nothing. "You sold something to someone, gratz here is your credits".

And why oh why in the name of the Force isn't bidding on items allowed?? Who ever in the developers team that came up with that idea should be put through a drug test immediately...

2) A BIG THUMBS UP!!! to our forum moderators for being on top of the forums as they were!! within an hour of my previous thread being bumped and replied to multiple times, they have re-directed it here... nice to see there IS a lot of concern regarding a functional "Auction House" system!

/applauds!

great things await us in the future -- i hope!

We need more locations for GTN access maybe even one on our ships.

Being able to search for an item by name without first having select item types.

Sort armor by slot.

I'll add my voice to the chorus of saying that the GTN needs significant functionality improvment.

A search function, and better filters. I should be able to search for just heavy armour headgear or bracers or gloves.

Weapons filter isnt too bad, but the armour and crafting serch and filters need MAJOR work.

I'm messing around with learning how to make ui mockups. So I started to make one for tor.
Remember its a mockup so no fancy graphics.

If anyone has ideas for it please post. Bioware is free to use my setup in part or holesale.

I personally don't mind the location restriction of the GTN but I definately think that using the GTN is anoying for all of the reasons posted. Hopefully this will change soon, at the very least to allow you to type the name in and have actual auctions not just buyouts.
