Please please please fix the post-patch "Unable to Post Items for Sale" bug

alphastream

Dear Devs,

Each time there is a patch we get a very high likelihood, for several hours to a day, of getting an error message when we post to the Auction House.

The error is "Unable to post your items for sale. Items placed back into your inventory."

It can happen 5 times in a row with a single item, or not at all. It is incredibly frustrating, as it zeroes out the average bid values for the item and won't remember what bid values we were choosing. We have to start all over again.

Please please fix this issue. It's been with us for years.

I've been told that it's due to many people trying to use the AH all at once, and not something that they can easily fix, as it's not a "bug".

Typical lock busy issue of database.

This many years and they can't fix it? It happens after every update.

The way the AH functions is managed by the infrastructure team and they've been working on ways to improve it. Since it's a system that impacts all Cryptic games, it takes longer to roll out changes.

I truly appreciate the team looking into it. It's a really frustrating bug to deal. Thank you.
