I am 100% neutral on this issue, but just wanted to mention one thing: people, I hope this teaches you to learn to fucking make money, because it's do or die now without the global auction channel. One observation I have made again and again about Everquest players is that they are unfathomably bad at making money. People tell me that they can't afford their spells at level 4, that their life savings at level 10 are only 22 platinum (for non-casters even), etc, etc, etc. Here's some advice:
-Buy 8 backpacks and fill the bank with them
-Fill those backpacks with bone chips, pelts (of all qualities - eventually someone will buy them), spider(ling) silks, Deathfist/Crushbone Belts/Pads, etc.
-Create a hotkey with /auction WTS (...) and modify it whenever you sell stuff.
As much as I want to have all the moneyz for myself, I can never understand why people don't take the time to enterprise in this game and then complain about how they find it hard to make money, even without global ooc/auction.
/end rant
