I hate it when people say they hated Luclin because of the Bazaar...
Trading in the bazaar didn't come until PoP, before that it was just a regular zone
doing regular shit with no one ever in it.
thanks and have a nice day

Either way, it ruined the GAME. Hands on trading was dead that dead.

The Bazaar just meant you don't have to spend hours or days looking for X item or spell. You do a search and it was either there or not. It was good for those who don't like to hang out in EC trade for hours upon hours. Some people dig the trading scene and some don't. The only argument I have was they should have just implemented it in EC.
I liked the fact that I could go to sleep and sell my shit afk.

And yes you are wrong. Bazaar was before POP.

It was a good long while after Luclin dropped that the actual Bazaar went live. Yes it was before PoP, but I quit a while after Luclin and it wasn't in before I left. It was just an empty zone with some vendors.

The tunnel is the single most unique aspect of this iteration of EverQuest. It's what gets me to log in.

I didn't like what it did to the social aspect of trading, however the real problem was setting up a trader was completely free. That was a great opportunity to actually start removing some platinum from circulation that was just completely missed and there were different ways they could have gone about it. Hourly rate (could differ on how much you could sell items for or whatever or how many), "house cut" per purchase, etc. Yeah it would have required some tweaking but it would have helped slow inflation and brought more "real" value back to platinum and made people consider if they could make more money selling themselves vs the overhead of convenience.

I liked the bazaar because of the transparency. Items and prices right there in front of you. I hate watching auctions without prices. Invariably people ask way more than the auction tracker lists when you send a tell.
I enjoyed Luclin, bazaar aside and wasn't a fan of anything after that. My idea emu is vanilla through to Luclin.

It was sometime between Luclin and Planes.. it went in with the same patch that introduced the new UI (Departing from the classic Velious style UI, although both were usable for some time via INI settings).

yuhhhh horses?

Yuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh horses helped with platinum removal, but that does not mean it had to be the only one. Not to mention they were still a one time cost per character, that is, if you even needed to buy one at all. And to the actual point of my post, horses did not offer any cost to the convenience of never having to be at your keyboard to sell goods.

YEAH PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN THEIR EVERQUEST HISTORY
Just for fun...
I'm not really raging, just saying how annoying it is that people think they can tell us what weapon to use. I dont want to use a fukken Obsidian Shard of Avalon. I dont wanna use a YAK those are 9k. I wanna use EXECUTIONERS AXE that someone gave me. What are you gonna do when every warrior, in the near distance future starts using only Wurmslayer and Lamentation.
Beyotch, i got a TAUNT button i use often.
Oh and by the way, if you're gonna nuke something for like 300 points of damage do you think a little shard is gonna stop a mob from coming over
and squishing you? Whats that you say? i NEED Shards because taunt is broken in this server? not my fault, tell the devs to fixit.
WARS USE EXE AXE

I'm curious about those "non-luclin" Vah Shir models in those patch notes. I don't remember those, but I wanna know what they look like.

Hoshkar should no longer appear as a bag, qualifying him as the happiest of them all.
I also found this enjoyable.

I never really understood/understand what people have against the bazaar.
EC tunnel is such a time sink.
Flame it all you want but I'd rather go into a store (in real life) and go right to what
I need/want instead of spending all my time spamming or hawking my wares in EC
just hoping for a buyer or spend all my time waiting in EC for that one item I could
really use to come up on spam.
Having the baz also doesn't stop people from selling stuff in bank zones or as they
travel around.
I'd rather have the bazaar but I'm willing to live without it here

This is why I pay people to sell in ec and liked the bazaar

It's Luclin+ era and you're on the P99 boards. Being surprised people here don't like Bazaar is like walking into a house full of skinheads and being surprised that they hate...well...everything. Not saying it's right, matter of opinion. I personally like Bazaar. But people's dislike (Or I should say burning blinding hatred) of the zone in this community is not a surprise. In fact it's nothing short of expected.

I rather enjoy it when people force a "literally" where the antithetical "figuratively" would do – would, in fact, be more literal.

Based on that patch message, we need to get /makeleader out of here, NOT CLASSIC.
/makeleader <target> - The leader of the group can now reassign who the leader of the group is by use of this command.
I loved the bazaar as my guild banker on live. Box a second account all day long, set prices 1p lower than other people, find the cheap stuff and buy it all up to resell.
Made finding pet aggro weapons super easy for those charmed giants.

I did really enjoy waking up every morning as a kid and looking at my computer to see what I sold in the bazaar. I understand why everyone likes EC tunnel. I remember when bazaar came out going to tunnel and seeing it empty. I felt kinda sad ha. But Bazaar definitely makes things easier.

I hate it when people dont check facts before posting about hating Luclin because of the Bazaar...
Trading in the bazaar came 6 months before the release of PoP, before that it was just a regular zone
doing regular shit with no one ever in it.
thanks and have a nice day

I used to make a ton of Kaladim Constitutionals and put them on my bazaar mule to hold, and set their price obscenely high. I loved to come back to the computer to see people still buying stacks of it. Some people had too much plat.
