I have recently discovered the Auctions site and sold 2 items already.
Will the people abusing the feedback system get banned?
If you have like 500 orange dyes, and you sell them all, you have 500 +1 feedback's... Isn't that a bit of cheating/abusing? I'm trying to get a good reputation on the Auctions site and I'm going to play it fair.
Abusing the feedback system

I doubt someone will put up 500 "1 Orange Dye Xg" auctions.
Honestly I dont think anyone has been abusing it...
And as for a Dutch auction; I doubt 500 ppl would buy 1 dye for that person and leave feedback... too much work for what its worth(nothing if there all fakes and they catch the person)

So far, we have not seen any wide-spread abuse of the feedback system. We have had individual cases of people attempting to abuse the system, and I hope you understand that I am not going into all the details here, but these attempts did not go unnoticed and have been treated accordingly.
Putting up 500 identical items is no cheating/abusing; it may, however, not be a smart move. There is nothing wrong with getting 500 feedback points from selling 500 orange dyes, the question will be, though, as to whether you will manage to find people to buy up your quantity. I certainly hope you succeed, but I have the feeling that the orange market is closely following the market for starter swords.![Smile](../Img/smile.gif)
Regarding the banning, you can rest assured that we take our responsibility to monitor the auction system very seriously. We want to maintain a system that enables all users to experience satisfactory transactions. Because of that, we have drawn up terms and conditions that we wish users to observe. While we will engage in a dialog with individuals that breach the rules, we will not indefinitely remind a user of the same rules over and over. If warranted by the seriousness of the (possibly repeat) offenses, we will take the steps that are necessary to ensure that "good" buyers and sellers get to enjoy the system as much as possible.

Currently there is someone selling 4 raven staves and a precious one.
You can make more gold thru the wood that you get from them. And if that precious staff goes over the 124g that is listed in the description, I'm going to give up on humanity alltogether.
