    Auction rules and code of ediquette

    need to set one set of rules all these new auctioneers runnin it like a Monarchy is gettin ridiculous, i personally love ImaQT's auctions the best she has a firm yet gentle hand and way of approaching a situation, i got told by an auctioneer today that i was being ignored because i advertised in between a closed auction and a new one opening......im just sayin wats on everyones minds, because all these new auctioneers really frustrate me, no place to sell since auction completely kill TT and g-1 is full of idiots, all the traders hang in g-2, i will continue to do as i pls inbetween auctions....

    ==Whisper me to get on list== Self auctions are fine, but get on list please ==
    **Always bid by 5gc or more, if above 500 by 10gc or more, if above 1k by 25gc or more**

    *Etiquette* Don't interrupt the auctions- Don't Chat- Never comment on other's auctions- Bid Correctly- Be Polite- Don't SPAM*

    Chatting in open chat or between auctions is always the best policy. One huge problem is the 3 most common questions...
    1 Who's auctioneer?
    2. What's on the block?
    3. What is the high bid?
    Those three questions get answered at the very least every two minutes by a good auctioneer. No need to ask really because if there isn't a good auctioneer doing it then the seller themselves should notice this & place their item a couple times before the sold or self auction it.

    lets get bb to add a new chat rank, idk if this is called rank exactly, perhaps chat privilege?, that will allow auctineers to type in different color like bb folks, auctioneers can pass it along when they change

    Must Say there are some good Auctioneers and there are some bad ones. I see no problem throwing out a trade offer in between its not like your asking them to bid on it so your not skipping in line. I have given up on Global-2 just because the prices are very bad there for almost anything you bid on past 4 in the afternoon. Ive been talking to a couple BB's about possibly changing some of the chat channel features. Thanks- HWER

    For some reason I never knew that you had to bid different amounts for different pries it was just bid by 5 gc for a while when did this change and who brought on this change?

    There are bad auctioneers that some people think are good and good ones that some people think are bad.
    One thing is evident. Auctioneers all think they are good.
    The system is not perfect, but it works.
    Stop trying to make it perfect, that is not possible.
    If anything, standardize the rules along the lines of what the community wants, NOT what the auctioneers deem to be the final answer.

    This will only be consistent and streamlined if BB decides to come in, and do something within the framework of their game.
