this feature allows you to setup shop logout and leave your shop open. Once all items are sold  it logs your character out of the server.  Very useful command.

Sounds like 3rd party automation which is not allowed on iRO.

Third party automation? You've lost me, how does this feature = prohibited?

You're proposing this be allowed, or that section 9 codes it? If the latter, it'd be allowed, but I am not sure if they can do it.

I'd understand if this feautre worsened the bot situation or something like that.  But All this feature does, is allow venders to sell while they are logged off. That's about it. Leaving the clinet open and vending you are prone to get dced. But with this feature you're already logged off so all that is left is to sell.

i would rather offline vending, just like the one they have in flyff online. no need to keep PC open for vending.

A lot of private servers have the ability to use a command to setup a vend and log off, would be really nice for an official server to have seeing how absolutely useful it is, especially for people with a lousy pc who might not be able to keep it up.

Auction house is connected to the mail system and kRO removed the mail system due to duping exploits. We have a custom mail system in place until they give us the new mail system.

Plus there were a bunch of restrictions on the auction house that made it nigh impossible to use unless you were already filthy rich.

^ this.

 

I'd prefer it if I could just set up a vend and then kill the client so it doesn't consume resources, so I can do other things or play another account.

 

Not exactly a fan of keeping my computer running overnight either.

 

And it just gets silly if you have multiple vends running, all full. 3+ clients hogging memory just for vending on top of the one I'm actually playing? No thanks.

Please revive this. this is the most important suggestion ever!

There is no reason not to have this feature. Its not hard to implement, all private servers have it!
Not everyone can keep their computers online vending , and people get dced all the time!
Have we ever receive a response from the gm team on this issue? 

Please make this happen!

Good idea 'cause it will reduce bot vendors who steal spots and cover your vends, but might promote people to set-up unwanted vend booths (both selling and buying vends; non-merchant players can put up buying vends as well by using the black market ticket) and overpopulate towns esp. Prontera and Eden 2F. Its good for private servers since most of them doesn't have much large player base like iRO to make it look like they have large player counts.

 

However, if they put a duration, 'say for x hour(s) or so and put the vend back yourself after the time is over, I don't see any problem with it.

exactly. To avoid abuse, just put a time limit. like 1 or 2 days. otherwise people would create useless shops and leave it opened for months

It is possible, but to avoid a 3rd party program RO would have to implement this feature itself. Which in all likely-hood is doubtful because this feature is associated with "Unnameable" RO Servers.

Yea, but allowing it to stand for one to two days is too long. =/ In a day or two, vends will pile up resulting to crowded maps. You won't see Prontera anymore, just a collage of vend names. Probably few hours will do. Like three or four to five hours, or maybe six. Just good for an overnight sleep.

This would be really nice and convenient. Unfortunately the chances of it happening are close to zero, as it sounds like it would require some serious coding legwork and add to the fact that I don't believe even kRO has this diminishes the odds they'll allow iRO to make such a huge custom change. Not to mention the fact that we'd probably have to wait a year for kRO to even respond to the request and then another year to implement the function and yet another to iron out all the inevitable bugs and exploits, crashing the servers numerous times in the process along with rollbacks, dupes and all manner of disasters and you get something that's not gonna happen.

 

+1 for offline vending

I'd pay for an autovend feature that can last 6-8 hours. Make it cash or KP =)
