why havent we got this yet. as we upgrade to new gear we should be able to send stuff back out onto the market. seems like it would be a good money bringer

    If you want the devs to read it, you're better off posting on the chinese forums, where the devs actually are located.

    Besides that, this belongs in suggestion box, and on top of that it's been suggested multiple times.
    I would like to see it as well, but it won't see the light of day anyway.

    Besides that, the argument that it's a good money bring is false; leaving gear bound is a better money bringer for PWE, because you have to repurchase more than you would have to if you are able to resell stuff.​​

    It already exists for the p2p version of PW in China. And it only works for gear which doesn't auto-bind (= for gear which got bound by using a Binding Charm).

    I doubt it will ever come to our version (it could put the prices down for many items like e.g. bound Emperors of retired toons). And many ppl would like to sell their stuff for rl money (e.g. 200 dollars for a LuaD of a toon which retired in 2009 and so on...). An in-game market which is illegaly connected with rl money would attract even more scammers and gold diggers.

    It has been discussed many times in the correct forum. PWE has stated many times that you will not see this in our version for a multitude of reasons reasons.​​

    Rename it "HACKER'S STONE" because rich hackers will unbind and steal all your stuff with it. And before anyone says "don't share accounts or go to scam sites", I have never gotten ****. However, there was a malware virus of a sort affecting hundred of thousand's PCs a few years ago and it breached some of PWI's accounts so they did a force password reset for everyone. This is why we can't have it.

    Just to be clear, that malware you speak of was embedded into a "bot" program for MMO's, and was also pushed through some hijacked ads. It was a keylogger targeted at getting your login data for a large number of MMO's. If you were not visiting malicious websites or downloading questionable software, you were not affected by it for the most part.

    Which is just another reason to keep your PC updated with active security software and ad-blockers.​​

    hi,
    heartbleed
    period.
    Ahh, yes. I almost forgot about that one. They reset everyone's account there also.

    That type of issue is more the exception than the rule though.​​

    Ah yes it was called Heartbleed. I remember it like it was yesterday xD Never seen PWI freak out like that before. All I knew was many accounts login were compromised but nothing too detailed.

    Eh, I didn't really notice too much panic, and it was a lot bigger than just PWE being affected; a ton of websites were.​​
