its not just the scams

lets say you put market order for sell and server is laggy, you think you inputted 1 million per item, when in fact you did 10 million. and you just hit enter and there we go, instead of 10000 isk tax per item, you are paying 100000 isk tax per item, if you have 50+ items that's like 5 million just there, now lets say you wanted to sell for 10 million and you put in 100 million by mistake... well you get the point...

and yea, there is warning that you are selling above or below some % of regional average, but lets face it, when you do trading you do that a lot and you just press enter ...

And your solution is to...what? put jut enough into an account to cover your order and then place the order? You're talking about adding several steps to the process because you aren't waiting a couple of seconds to be sure you got the right number in your order.

Indeed, Most people have alt corps or banking characters to hold their isk, I know i do, id just rather not have to switch characters to get at it, but im inclined to spend it all when i see it in my active wallet.

Its not possible to please all the people all the time, but it sure as hell is possible to Displease all the people, most of the time.
