Hey,
I know on ebay it's illegal to push auctions. Pushing an auction means that you have someone bid on things with the whole goal being to push the price up with no intend of actually buying the item in question, often using a friend or family member. With "buy back" I mean that you have someone buy the item because you don't like the price it was going for.
So, is that acceptable in EU? In EU we have the added "problem" of auction history, which would then reflect the wrong prices of items.
I know MA couldn't really enforce this and I'm not asking them to. I can watch out for that on my own. But I just wanna know what you think about that.
I don't like it and I think it's harmful and I have written down several names that I suspect doing that (I have lot's of notes for this game xD). Am I weird for doing that? Please lemme know what you think.
Regards
Thark
