The currency exchange system was a huge success. Build on that to include all other items and you have a complete gaming experience. Having to message dozens of people to get a connection is a massive brain drain.

Totally agree. I honestly can’t understand why GGG still refuses to give us what the game clearly needs. The arguments against a proper trade system are:

not rational,

lack any coherent context,

borderline idiotic,

sound like bad-faith takes,

feel intentionally obstructive,

reek of outdated elitism,

ignore the actual player experience,

seem like there's some hidden agenda,

insult the community's intelligence,

and most importantly — completely miss the point.

At this point, it’s not just disappointing — it’s suspicious.

I really think it has more to do a the extra server power needed to run a AH and the main reason they don't want to have to spend the extra $'s on server bandwidth. Imagine all the searches and transaction validation needed to run a AH. Then be prepared for RMTers to take over very fast and jump prices way up. Possible duping that could happen with bugs.

Hideout warrior crafting high-end items... charges 500 Div for 1 piece. Player goes to RMT site and buys 500 Divs with real $'s then purchases the Item. Now the hideout warrior ammasses large amounts of Div's which is then transfered to a RMTer who then resales Div's for $'s to another player.

We can guess this happens already, but outside of GGG and game. If an AH was made then GGG would be paying the bandwidth cost for all this.
