You can hate on EC all you want, but EC was a brilliant market that deterred gold farmers looking for fast sales. They could not just go AFK and farm gold on another account. In addition, EC forced you to interact with the community. If you were a jerk, people would not buy from you. You also could not haggle a price in the bazaar, a luxury savvy players have with EC.

You say EC is for losers who don't have a job, yet ironically enough, the toons represented in the bazaar are all 1st level account mules selling wares while their mains are being played. If P99 were to have a bazaar, I could probably accept it if it were ONE character PER IP, and for those with an IP exception, only ONE account active online while selling (no selling on the "wife's" account while you play on your other account - 2 box rule and test should apply here).
I think you are confusing nexus with PoK.
