Suggestion: Site supported auction based selling option.
Could be either built into LS marketplace or as part of the forum as a whole and used on all supported game platforms.
I think in the case of LS it would lead to an increase in trading that among other benefits would make the game more accessible to new players.
Open source auction software options exist that could be implemented into the forum. Either thru a percent cut and/or listing fees it could generate a forum gold sink.
Side Question:Is there any functional reason for the marketplace reseting along with ladder season?
Voted yes because I think the idea is a good one. Implementation anytime soon is not that likely but it's nice to imagine if it could happen.
To your side note--marketplace resetting kind of sucks... I usually lose a good amount of fees for random stuff I list over 20 fg each season. I'm sure others lose more... however, one reason it might be in there in the first place is that item prices do change a lot based on what people have unlocked. To me that could go either way, but I kind of like it because it does seem special to open a game in a new season and see a clean marketplace, everyone is level one with no unlocks yet--nothing left over from last season, etc
