Even though I have been relatively inactive recently, people manage to find me and donate stuff. Respect! Our 2 new heroes are AmberRune and Aethon: 21) Amberrune donated: - 12 gold, 65 silver coins, 8 various spellstones and 12 common items. 22) Aethon donated: 32 gold coins, 5 silver coins from an auction and 4 black and white eculubrations May generous deeds never be forgotten!

Dang. I was hoping it was intentional. (Not to the detriment of Aethon, but because it would have implied that there was counterfeiting taking place within MD. Would have been fun to hunt down the culprit.)

Commenting on the arguments occurring in this thread: I don't see the need for so many complaints. There are simple solutions that you (referring to distrusting potential buyers) have complete control over. 1) Don't bid on something offered by someone you don't trust. This is a simple way to avoid issues. 2) Don't bid more than you are willing to pay for something. This way, even if the seller lies about anonymous bids to drive up the price, in the end you both end up with a mutually beneficial outcome. There are alternative solutions of course: third party moderating the auction, blacklisting agreements, etc. And I'd love to see some of these implemented by groups of players. In short, this is a complaint about complaining. Please excuse me. But I'd prefer to see players implementing new forms of auctions, introducing methods pf self-governance, committing acts of retribution, and creating new problems than listen to their preemptive complaints.

MD trades require goodwill and trust on both sides. When that trust comes into question, it is a best practice to wait until the trade in question is over before complaining, because calling BS on someone after a trade occurs leads to much stricter consequences, and a loose trade embargo will follow naturally from any accusation, true or false, and this is a good thing. Obviously such an image or set of images should include server time to verify that bids were placed between your bids.

And how would that help me if I'd bid higher and won? I could read my own trade logs? Awesome, thanks for the help! Unfortunately I don't have much trust in rider ,at the moment, due to past experiences, hence my caution. But as you said "so much ignorance..." As I said, bid still stands and let's split the rest of this if you want to continue or message me privately.
