Anyone enjoying the new basil auction system?

I came back to maple recently as well as basil, and I noticed the new auction or sell/trade system, I was wondering hows its working out in other servers? I personally dont like it but was just wondering what everyone else though.

If the current Basil Auction system went on the American T.v. show "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?" it would lose.

Well I see no reason... There's no rule against insulting the Sell & Trade, which I myself have done several times...

thank god im not the only one, I was expecting mass flaming at me or something, yeah its gettign even mroe annoying now because its not even functioning properly, like under the nx equip section i see like 8 items and only 3 of them are clickable, it seems like theres too many glitches as well as confusion as to whats going on, now I cant really sell items without having to go the free market and spend time vending >.> by vending i mean standing there saying "S>>SOMETHING@@@@"

I haven't used it yet, and I don't see myself likely doing so in the future.
Mind you, I stopped using this site for auctioning years before they implemented these recent changes, though. =p

I would if the old were to come back, or the seller could pick witch auction he/she would like.

Actually, it was the ONLY good feature from this mediocre site

[quote=dusk278]Oh I just love the new auction system. Having to wait weeks or months for a response from the seller to accept my bid. I also love the fact that they put in open to offers but when I put in my bid they then tell me the price that they actually wanted, I mean why put in open to offer if you're just going to turn around, reject my offer, and then proceed to tell me your wanting price. Best system ever. But the best part I love about it is the removal of the feedback system, so now if the trade you made goes south you can't leave a feedback on the guys account to warn any future traders. Sometimes I think the basil auction system is as fixed as the Maple's ranking system.[/quote]

Here, take my like.

It is exactly the same
the only difference is that it leaves a wider gate to trolls and auctions take months to finish instead of days/weeks
