NOTE: this is my first suggustion, please don't shoot me down without thought. Just hear me out.

We trade creatures on the trading post, and that's all fine and dandy. But there are some people who try to auction off an LE creature, and BAM! Several people want to know for how much, what's the highest bid, and it can get confusing and overwhelming, especially for the person running the auction. What if, just like the trading post, there was a creature auction. A place where people could pick an egg/creature, pick the starting price, and pick how long the auction lasted. Bidders would bid, and when time's up, the creature got sent to the highest bidder automaticly, same as the EC/CC would get sent to the seller. If nobody bids, the creature gets sent back to the seller. While the creature is in auction, you could see the seller, who the highest bidder is, what the starting price was, ect. It would make it easier to buy creatures quickly, too.

What do you think?

@thunder_clan

While this is true, some people often back out in auctions when they have a severe under offer on their creature.

That being said, I guess that's what the starting price would be for? To make sure that doesn't happen.

Hmm. Neutral I think. Leaning towards like.

Yes. I like it.

What if the person changes their mind at the last minute though? I think that when the auction is over, the user should be able to decide whether or not they still want to sell it.

But, I do like this idea very much! 😃 It would be so much simpler.

@thunder_clan i love the idea, only some people like to take the creatures out of their auction cause they are not surr selling it, find their bids too low etc. but i really like the idea! 😃

Even though I don't trade much, this could be a fabulous idea to those who say trading is their life!

Thumbs up!
