Merchant Archive

That's the first time I have seen you talk like that, and I believe it was totally justified. In the last week, I have seen a growing sentiment in people that merchants are utterly useless, and some seem down right offended when we ask that the problems in our class be recognized. Asking to raise the bazaar limit to 5k is like us asking for Eye Shot so that we can make it out to our houses/shops without danger. Well, not exactly the same, but it would raise the samereaction as their suggestion raised in us. For all the people that use vendors (ie customers), it seems that Merchants are a relatively transparant profession, a pain which perhaps only Chefs can relate to. Was your response undiplomatic, perhaps, but certainly it was warrented, and not at all out of line.

OK, but somehow I seem to have missed the "rude" part. Perhaps that says something about me.

What I saw of your posts seemed appropriate and well justified. Generated a lot of support for your position on the "bad" thread as well.

Only problem I saw was that it was responding to a troll. I never had trouble with that, and participated, but I know lots of folks do object for a good reason. They think it encourages the troll. I doubt that it has enough sense to be either encouraged or discouraged.

You were justified. We tend to be a quieter class probably because the lack of action and the tedious nature of our jobs does not attract "specific" types of players. As I said in a previous post, you are our voice and something like this would be a big hit to our livelyhoods.

If you get out of line, I'll let you know.

Marqie, that fool deserved every bit of heat he got. He's talking about wasting his time exploring around for vendors. If he wants to know what I have on my vendor, he can always send me a tell. Kind of like the old ad: "Let your fingers do the walking". He's just looking to make his gaming experience easier so he can go back to powerleveling himself so he can be a master whatever. Don't think you stepped out of line. Most people are happy to walk to a merchant to purchase thier goods. This newb was just too lazy, and he's thinking that most people would agree with him. And to his surprise, they don't. It's that simple.

I haven't seen anything wrong with your posts to date. I believe we were both arguing the same point on the one thread, I was just a little more pissed off most likely, and wasn't being quite as verbose.

Keep up the good work.

As others have mentioned, in my book you acted completely responsibly considering the idiots posting over there

I wanted to say that I am sorry for my very rude post of the "Make Bazaar limit 5000" post.

For some unknown reason , I feel a need to defend this class. I also can not stand people who "speak" for everyone, and argue when people do not agree.

Forgive me if I made our class look bad, This post, and it's few defenders have angered me with there lack of knowlage of our class, and attempting to "force" our class to match their play style.

You were to nice.
