post to remove above-sell order isk on orders

So, browsing general forums, see the post of what some one wants CCP to fix.

and somehow, on the list, there came the:

Market
• If a buy order is placed above a matching sell order within range, the transaction should pay at the sell order price automatically.

^^^^^^^^

For me, this is an outrage.

when some one's bot breaks, and they buy the same thing, 1 at a time, precicly every 6 minutes (or 15), for 12 hours, or days, THIS is how i find them to report them--they pay too much.

also, it means that it favors stupid poeple plugging in random numbers to get things off market rather than looking..

if they want to pay more, they should.

if they're too lazy to look at sell ordrs, they should pay more.

if they're a broken market bot, they should pay more.

... i cant stand for a change like this!

can you?

Before getting too outraged you should read this and take it into consideration:

Tab before enter is your friend to avoid overpaying.

Usually I tab, hit the magnifying glass to check the price hasnt changed, then hit enter.

On topic:

The system is a broker system, so, to change the thing with paying too much, it would require changing the concept of the market.

Also, it would make it a PITA for clearing out those small orders.

If I want to buy 50m trit, and there are lots of little piles, I place a buy order for the price I want and clear out all the others....under this suggestion, you would have to do it X times.

Improve the order placing mechanics so you can put multiple quantities of an item in one buy/sell order without having to stack the items together first.


we can't restock the stock if we are note in station and can't put an orders in multi stack : a good and bad thing at the same time


bad when we obtain a lot of delivery in station ( fail orders or buy item ) and we try to agregrate the stockpils without stand in trading hub for example

Remove the "Regional Average" statistic and replace it with a "Universal Average" based on the new price keeping system.

no this is bad. I set up alot of buy orders daily. I know one day i will make the mistake of putting an extra zero. Don't want to end up paying 1bl for something worth 100m
