PLease make expired Event ingredients NOT Auctionable

[cmecu]

There is no sense in people being able to put up hardened caramel, and Rotten Almonds etc.. or anything that has no use for anything in the game. Sure a person should know what they are buying, but the fact that the icon of a useless material is the same as one that is useful. It is unbecoming of supposedly a more mature crowd of MMO players to have people stoop so low to sell something they know is worthless. So please make expired event stuff No Auction please.

yup happened to me. Im sleepy and tired.. opened the shard AH, looked at the caramels and almonds.. they all look identical.. 100 for 20 shards.. bought each.. so im out 40 shards with something that has no value. Thing is they look identical. And people put this stuff up knowing people will buy by accident, or in my case, sleepy and not being able to discern between the two.. they are off by just one word.. so easy to miss it. Its really sad that people would take advantage of other people like this.. but I also have to point a finger at SSG for even allowing the stuff to be able to be put on the AH to begin with.

When the event comes around don't change the items to rotted/corrputed/putrid/whatever item, delete them just like you do spectral dragon scales.

Is there any compelling reason these NEED to expire nowadays? Why this specific event but not others?

[archest]

make them all BTA and let them not expire.

[helpfulguy1234]

make them all BTA and let them not expire.

Why BTA? Just unbound, no expiration.

The game has a lack of tradeables

There is a reason why they expire

This right here.. that is perfect..

Yeah so many ways this could've been implemented better than just adding a word...

- Delete them outright....they're items that serve no purpose other than to be manually deleted anyway, so just make it automatic, if that's not technically problematic
- Make them unauctionable, since they're a separate item from the fresh candy
- Give them a different graphic than the fresh candy to more obviously distinguish them in the AH interface

And that reason is........ ?

[Wizard1406]

Yeah why do keys and ingredients from Night Revels even expire? That's not the case for the other events.

And the last new event they made, unbound ingredients, no expiration. (snowpeaks)

Here was my humble suggestion on this: https://forums.ddo.com/forums/showth...-May-I-Suggest

[Oxarhamar]

The other thread that's been linked here has that info

I don't see any reason why they need to expire in there.

So again, the reason they need to expire is.........?

You said "there is a reason why they expire".

WHAT IS THAT REASON in your opinion?

Because I can't think of a single solid reason why they NEED to expire.

That was already answered in the linked thread

Expired ingredients should never have been auctionable.
They should have been invalidated for auction when they were tagged for expiry.


and fix/delete old expired ingredients that don't even have descriptions or short text anymore.
These of Vampire fangs I cant even drag from my bag deposit box to inventory to delete, they are stuck in my crafting storage box without short text.
Just in there as a stack of undeletable blank.
They were an unknown item for a while, I accidently found out what they were while filter text searching for old Mabar ingredients to delete.



Vampire fangs/Lich Dust/Spectral Dragon Scales were supposed to be tradable to motes.. but at some point that crafting conversion option expired too...

If there is a reason in that thread, please be so kind to repost it here, maybe I'm just not good at reading english.

Because I sure don't see one. What is it? r is there maybe just not one?

Or maybe you also are not great at english and don't understand what I'm asking?
