It's the fault of the player because the scam has been around ages and anyone still playing DAOC should really know by now to be cautious. It's Mythic's fault though for not improving the UI

Bad UI:

potion ... 15g
potion ... 15g
potion ... 15p
potion ... 15g

Better UI:

potion ... 15g
potion ... 15g
potion ... 15,000g
potion ... 15g

Colors, too, can be used to highlight the difference in prices and are easily recognizable. However, it would violate the rules of the current UI which is color-blind friendly.

I think the UI thing was addressed...my UI shows it as (xx gold, xx silver) or (plat, gold, silver i think) but it definitely has the words gold and plat spelled out.

Don't carry around large sums of plat for but also if you happen across these merchants be a good guy and buy the surrounding potions off so that it highlights the ripoff one a little bit.

On a side note, I'm curious...What's the most you've paid to a front page listing for invig pots? I confess, I've paid 50g for them before, just because I didn't want to take the extra 3 seconds it would require to specify cheaper search results...my RvR toons are all alchemists too, isn't that something?



I usually put a max price on the search, so 50g invig pots would never show up on my search.

Sneaking 15p items in the middle of a list of 15x items is against the ToS.



Show us the TOS that represents this. Because you must have been one of the retards would didnt pay attention to this.
