It doesn't matter if he thought it through thoroughly or not. And whether he articulated his thought process in his post or not. His opinion is different than yours, so you would have replied with a snarky comment none the less.

Man if we wanted to know our wealth we'd have gold...
The only thing that should matters is the efficiency of the equipment.

Let's say I'm a big marauder with great strengh and just enough dexterity to have a decent accuracy, high level bows are useless to me since I can't equip them, if I found a rare high level bow with crazy mods I want to trade it for a good rare high level 2H sword and eventually an armor better than the one I'm wearing at the moment, I don't want orbs.

That's barter, items have the value you think they have but people are not stupid they won't exchange a rare item for a white one.

I didn't say I was against the devs wanting players to not know their wealth. I just asked why he was selectively for one of the devs goals, but is against this one.

Try taking a look at your own signature. I'm going to dismiss your argument.

My signature and it's meaning has ZERO to do with your douche-bag replies & your overall ability to argue in circles across many threads. But by all means, continue being a douche-bag when replying to peoples post. After all, that is what you do best.

Ignore the troll. He can't concede a single point or even admit that he might be a tad snarky.

P.S. I love your signature.

What do you want, screenshots of trade talk in the chat? A video of me trading with someone? Get real; I'm not going to provide evidence of a common occurrence.


You tell me. I didn't claim to have any evidence, You did.

Just sign up on D2JSP and be done.....

0.6 million users, 400 million posts on a site which exists primarily because it offers a viable trading currency (and a crappy trading platform) for games that don't have one.

I don't think the devs could have come up with a better scheme for pushing players towards a third party currency if they had tried.
This whole topic reminds me of what Lewis Black said about Democrats and Republicans.

The Republicans are standing around farting and the Democrats are saying 'Ooo, Let me smell it'
