Diablo 3s attempt at an auction house was an unqualified disaster.
The day you started one in Destiny, you'd have people farming the raids and selling it to people who couldn't be bothered to do it.
The day after that, you'd be gettting e-mail solicitations to sell you gear for real money.

That's what I was going to say. Kudos.

Good thing for the raid lockout then...

Lots of ways to work around that. Just keep levelling up multiple copies of the same character and then give them the armor necessary to make them raid-ready.

Way to be a loser. That's for sure.

I don't do that. I have a life away from the console. But If you institute an auction house, I guarentee that this is what will happen. It was why Blizzard eventually had to write off the one for D-3 as a failure.

I wasn't taking a shot at you buddy. That way of playing is so boring. At one point I had two warlocks. I didn't like the way my first one looked after a few weeks. So for about a month or two I had 2 30 warlocks and being bored I made a hunter. Then I deleted my 1st warlock for a Titan. Now I'm having way more fun trying to find a new way to play with each class. My warlock is the SAVIOR I save my self res until it's almost too late (I.e. Crotas end, first bridge. Get there get the bridge building die and wait while the team survives. As soon as bridge is up... Self Rez and get across.) my hunter. I'm still trying to figure out. My Titan. I hardly know the perks. That being said I've gotten extremely luck with all my drops that I've been able to get all my characters high enough to do everything

It is boring, imo. Which is why I deleted my level 28 Warlock alternate last weekend, and am starting to level up a Titan, once I realized that the new raid was dropping armor at a higher rate than the VoG. But my point is that Auction Houses---when they meet human nature----will incentivize some people to do things that will be pretty corrosive to the long-term health of the game. Blizzard made the dual mistake of making the auction house a "real money" affair. The outcome was so bad for Diablo 3 that Blizzard bascially had to just throw the whole thing out, and revamp its entire loot system from scratch.
