There is no doubt you *can* collect enough money to buy a house for more than 8 million trias.

There's also no doubt that you can max brown way.  But I've decided that the benefit isn't worth the necessary suffering.

Editing to say I agree with Farren about cleaning up the thread.

I propose a thread split. This is way off topic. This thread is for the auction, not our complaints over the economy or unfairness to RPers (BTW, the problem is that you guys are all forgetting that the team sort of has to treat the 'RPers' and 'PLers' the same way. We're all players, one and the same)

Who is responsible for that desicion?
Was there any kind of vote?

Can entirely ignoring complains be a solution?

@Those who said "It's just a game. It's not the end of the world. It's ok." and something along those lines:
Yes, with those actions it is just a game.. like one of many others. My believe is (was?) that PS is special, that there's a difference and that it's "not just the same as all the other grinding oriented games".

Oh Zwenze, I did not yet forget your crying about  the ignorance about markets... and markets are definitely a whole lot more suitable for a diversity of players than house auctions.

Some people here are not anymore at the edge of irony, I fear...

First, excuse my english.. i'm not a native speaker
And second.. sorry.. i'm a rper.. (yes.. thats how i feel lately in PS)
and what about a public building with separate rented room for storage if some guilds wants a place only to store their items?
And for the rper guilds, why couldnt it be less huge houses? You could probably sell house in places not so close to the center of town, smaller, (yes i know.. woooorrrrkk!!! for the devs... well if i could help making the design.. i would.. ) anyway i guess since they are rp guilds they dont really wants all those fancy things.. i wouldnt personnaly. Look our own.. we made it like we wanted using crates... :P
Not all guilds need a mansion..
Couldnt you make one house (or few of them) available for guild reunions? One could "reserve" it for a time, use it for their need, then another guild could use it..
And yes, i agree guilds that did something special, or are there and support the life of the inhabitants for years should have kind of a special price
And since the team announce PS as a "roleplaying" game, yes it should be supported.. else.. call it other way
An no.. mining SHOULD NOT be that important.. i tried to rp as much as possible.. with absolutely no mechanics to support my char or my skills. I made some trias.. that i gave to new players mostly.. and used on some stats.. since i cant use it on any usable skills for my char.. but that would never been enough to simply help my guild buying the house.
And saying "You had months to mine!!" is stupid.. What about guilds rather newly founded?
And yes.. those reserve prices are extremely high. I wonder why settings reserves prices anyway?
But i feel that if i ask too much questions i'll also get threatened to be expelled...
thats usually how we are answered : Become a dev or shutup and if you dont agree.. out!     
and what if we dont have the skills to code or anything? Maybe questions are the only way we have to help the team.. sometimes questionning make someone think about somethings they didnt see..
I know this game is still under development and that's why questions are so important. And when lots of players complain about one single thing, maybe it's a sign it's not working properly right? so instead of saying shutup or become a dev, why not say "Hey.. maybe there is something there.. let's see this.."  ?
But usually everyone gets angry and it ends like this. Yes we take that game seriously, (in all ic means.. ) cause we believe it can become something very nice, if the basics are respected, if it goes as it were announced.. to be a ROLE PLAYING game. With mechanics supporting the rp. Something DIFFERENT from what we usually find, such as wow and runescape and others..

I usually stay quiet since i like the rp i have with few players and i want to stay in the game..
I wonder sometimes if the team isnt making things harder themselves by implementing stuff we dont need yet. Why not focus on the basic of the game, then add all the frills around? make sure your core is working nicely then add stuff
It would be nice to have few working skills in each category. I play my char since 2 years now with not a single usable skill.. i've never really complained. But when i see the things added in every version.. i get more and more frustrated. So yes.. this morning it gets out!
I was a coder long time ago, and that's how we always worked. The core first.. then the sub-routines.. then finally the eye-candy.

And a word about the economy.. arent we supposed to be in a MEDIEVAL fantastic world?? So what about millions of trias??? AS i said before.. before implementing something.. make sure it works and it's functionnal with the core.. obviously the economy system doesnt fit with the game core. I KNOW!!!! i should suggest things and not complaining.. well if i would feel it would be of any use.. i would.
But the way the game is going now, it is more likely we dont need other players anymore. Then where will the rp go??
But i'm only a player.. so i feel useless.. maybe i'll try again some suggestions.. maybe this time i will not be laughed at or someone will listen instead of saying "Get lost.. you arent in the team'"

Yes devs are working hard
Yes players are complaining
Maybe there is something between the two..
so what now?

Hmm... There might be something to the fact that only one bidder showed up.
Say what you want but i at least would like to be beaten sorely into the ground while i still had a glimmer of hope actually AT the auction then have them mercilessly stabbed into submission days before.
If I stand on the axis of the world will you mind if I say that the world revolves around me ?

Don't take for granted what you hear or what you think others will do.  Show up at every auction to the very last or you will have been deceived by misdirection and false information.
