After you posted this article we had someone read it and post 40 of each cloth 1 at a time for 999 gold. Not only did they completely miss the point of the post people will likely now sell less cloth to this person who is always spamming the trade channel trying to buy it at half the market price. So thanks for the article because it was good and thanks for the amusing side effect of having this guy be a complete retard, which should result in me being able to get more cloth as less people will sell it to him now :) Personally I quite enjoy making money on the Auction House. I've been using your guide for some time now so I don't spend a lot of time there as it isn't really necessary but what time I do spend at Auction I do enjoy. It helps that I now have enough gold to just buy everything I want for all my characters too ;) So I dunno if this has happened on other servers or not, but it was an amusing side-effect of this article on Feathermoon – Alliance Side.

Economies will always develop no matter where people gather. Don't know if you played D2 or not, but even without an AH there was an enormous economy. So much so that items were being sold in the real world at a pace that made the selling of gold in WoW look small in comparison (though not on the same scale if you follow me). The problem with NOT having an AH is that the market was pegged not by gold or the item itself, but the monetary system was based on the value of a certain item - the Stone of Jordan. If you had SoJ's, you had purchasing power; if you had no SoJ's you didn't. And it was much harder to consolidate wealth that way. As a result it became and even bigger case of the haves and have nots. If you don't like the accumulation of wealth as an interesting part time function of the game that's fine. And although we harp on it it's not more than 10% of what I do in the game. I spend far more time leveling toons, but only because it's my job to help develop and test the Alliance leveling guide (and horde previously). As a result, in a few months I will have 11 level 80's, and that's if I choose to leave 3 toons at level 70. Past that I have three of those toons in Ulduar ready gear, and my main is quite an accomplished raid healer. Left to my own devices I would probably ignore the pursuit of gold making more since I am happy with my intake - but again, it's the number one question people ask and part of my job is figuring out ways to make it simpler for them. My point is that I understand your position, but don't give me too hard a time for mine. I really don't spend an inordinate amount of time working the AH and I don't want anyone else to do so either. Past that I find it a much more efficient use of time to use the AH to make gold instead of the grind of farming more than a little bit each week. Our tips are really designed to give the average player who wants a little (or a lot - to each their own) more gold the very best ways to make it in the least amount of time so that they can spend the vast majority of their time doing what DOES interest them. Plus, having a little walking around money never hurt anyone. While I can see what you mean about it maybe being weird to have an AH in the game there is one thing you might have overlooked.
