Should the market have a 2 second time lim..

Should the market have a 2 second time limit before it will let you buy anything? It would eliminate Scamming

How could it eliminate scamming? Your post has made me get an idea, though. I think there should be a built in viewer so people can't hold a hat over an apple or something and it can give you information about the item. This wouldn't be hard, as you would just have to put the photo in as #i in a sign, but it could cause some serious lag.

2 second time limit? It usually takes 5 seconds before someone drops an item and they type out the info to put it out on display

Yes Stefan Loriel or Konidias should script that in, Torankusu, Give it up already, Its not good for people to be scammend on theserver with bugs and tricks people exploite even if that person is stupid enough to get an apple for 100g. The seller instigates the person to buy it, la de da the person gets scammed, but Graal is not exsactly like the real world, so, we will fix the bug than. Torankusu, just cut the rantings and insults on the bords please, I don't care what you say after this just cut it out.

Uhm, give it up? Why, exactly?

Scripting a two second delay before people are able to buy an item won't really do much. People will still be idiots no matter how many seconds delay you have on something. The forums, for example.

Just leave it how it is. If people didn't want to get "scammed" they'd take a few seconds themselves before buying it.

Your stuipid sassy smart ass attitude, hey, if you can't deal with acting normal than just do it somewhere else. The fact is, I know you are nice and all when people get to know you, but frankly, your a total ass otherwise. So, its not a warning or command or anything, its just me saying to you to cut down and quit it, I know I know all I can do is censor you but I can still do that. The thing I don't like about your attitude is how you just blatenly exploite holes in situations wether they be logical or technical. You squerm your way around things and point out blaintly obvious facts and points witch make other people feel bad, It dosen't matter if its so stupidly obvious, that does not mean that you have to say that.
Just calm yourself, I just keep on getting complaints about your attitude ingame, and I also observe you here on the bords alot, so, just quit it.

Being an ass is like "go away your idea is stupid, I hate you," without giving a (logical) reason...

thank you BirdBird. Torankusu, I found that for the few hours that forums had a 120 second waiting period the threads were a lot nicer, seeing as the people had time to think about what to say.

True, but you have to admit, sometimes it can get annoying, I have no problem with it, its just, I just see it way to often, and I know you do realize that there are other people on the other end of the conversations x.x, it does hurt them sometimes, no matter how mentaly or emotinaly stable they are =\ The internet is sometimes a vent for some unwated emotions too, you know what I mean?
