Actually, not really.
First, I'm retired from tunnelquesting. My goal was to make enough money to acquire a few items and that goal has been reached.
Second, p99auc - in my opinion - benefits tunnelquesters. I know I used it extensively to decide on the stance to take on any item that went through my hands.
Also, p99auc benefited tunnelquesters in another way. It kept items from losing value too fast. Any tunnelquester is facing the stock depreciation problem - to maximize your opportunity count, you need to maintain a healthy inventory of items, each of them slowly losing value to deflation.
p99auc helped slowing that deflation down (casuals wouldn't be selling their stuff cheap as they knew what it was worth).
I highly doubt someone went as far as launching a DDoS attack on the site just because they thought that would help them flip stuff in EC.
