Should the market have a 2 second time lim..

Should the market have a 2 second time limit before it will let you buy anything? It would eliminate Scamming

How could it eliminate scamming? Your post has made me get an idea, though. I think there should be a built in viewer so people can't hold a hat over an apple or something and it can give you information about the item. This wouldn't be hard, as you would just have to put the photo in as #i in a sign, but it could cause some serious lag.

2 second time limit? It usually takes 5 seconds before someone drops an item and they type out the info to put it out on display

Yes Stefan Loriel or Konidias should script that in, Torankusu, Give it up already, Its not good for people to be scammend on theserver with bugs and tricks people exploite even if that person is stupid enough to get an apple for 100g. The seller instigates the person to buy it, la de da the person gets scammed, but Graal is not exsactly like the real world, so, we will fix the bug than. Torankusu, just cut the rantings and insults on the bords please, I don't care what you say after this just cut it out.

Uhm, give it up? Why, exactly?

Scripting a two second delay before people are able to buy an item won't really do much. People will still be idiots no matter how many seconds delay you have on something. The forums, for example.

Just leave it how it is. If people didn't want to get "scammed" they'd take a few seconds themselves before buying it.

Your stuipid sassy smart ass attitude, hey, if you can't deal with acting normal than just do it somewhere else. The fact is, I know you are nice and all when people get to know you, but frankly, your a total ass otherwise. So, its not a warning or command or anything, its just me saying to you to cut down and quit it, I know I know all I can do is censor you but I can still do that. The thing I don't like about your attitude is how you just blatenly exploite holes in situations wether they be logical or technical. You squerm your way around things and point out blaintly obvious facts and points witch make other people feel bad, It dosen't matter if its so stupidly obvious, that does not mean that you have to say that.
Just calm yourself, I just keep on getting complaints about your attitude ingame, and I also observe you here on the bords alot, so, just quit it.

Being an ass is like "go away your idea is stupid, I hate you," without giving a (logical) reason...

thank you BirdBird. Torankusu, I found that for the few hours that forums had a 120 second waiting period the threads were a lot nicer, seeing as the people had time to think about what to say.

True, but you have to admit, sometimes it can get annoying, I have no problem with it, its just, I just see it way to often, and I know you do realize that there are other people on the other end of the conversations x.x, it does hurt them sometimes, no matter how mentaly or emotinaly stable they are =\ The internet is sometimes a vent for some unwated emotions too, you know what I mean?

So I should just not state my opinion on the matter at all (because some people don't like it.)? Sorry, I am not going to stay quite because a few people don't agree or think I am just being an ass to them because I dislike them. If I don't like an idea, I will state why. But I see I did not earlier, so I guess I was being somewhat of an ass; not always, though.

Well, Ive noticed that the majority of the threads that you post, torakusu, arent following the subject at all, and are actually just rude immature smart ass remarks toward the starter of the thread.

Yes I agree with you on that you are not always acting that way, yes you are intitled to your opinyon, but you go two steps farther buy minipulating your opinyon and thowing it in peoples faces. There is no rule agesnt stating your opinyons, (in almost all situations) but you still have to admit that you do act mean and very spitefull twords not just some people you hate, but mostly everyone that comes into the game. Stop just saying "You idiot you do this such and such only a stupid monkey cann't understand that".ect You do make other people feel bad no matter what you say after that you do know its the truth, and I'm just saying cut it out! you are free to voice your opinyons but when you bend that right and just totaly throw it around over your head it gets arg! Graal is a game not a graphical chat program, And if someone is disturbing gameplay for other people that problem has to be delt with, so Torankusu, just cut it out, stop acting so mean and biztitchesy all the time.
Its hard to keep everyone happy, but also the realization that most of the people in the market are kids that are not to aware of thier situation often, so, its sad when people exploite that flaw in our minds =|
Bleh, you know exsactly how you act, and you know exsactly how it effect other people so please, just cut it out.

added:
That remark about the illeterate people in the world, gosh, did you know that not more than 40%of the people can read? let alone not even 10% of the world has personalcomputers so please just be more considerate and more aware of where you stand in comparason to everyone else
