    Default New (give a delay if you listing items on auction)

    If you listing items on auc there should be cooldown delay so people and bot spam doesnt affect too much the text can be "Please wait another seconds before you listing another items on auction". If somone do spam at quick times give them a warnings the text can be "Please dont spam at auction".

    So bot and people who use auto clicker doesnt spam at auction, and other players doesnt need to clear their mess by refreshing auc multiple times.

    +1! A delay for re-listing the same auction item would be great. It discourages flooding the auction with single listings and encourages users to list items in stacks for better organization.

    -1 for me, I actually like to list blue gems in both ways(bulk and normal), and I do that due the difference of prices(meanwhile bulks awakens were 40k per unit, the 1x were being sold for 44k). Auction house have all the buttons that allows people to buy whatever and the quantiity their need, Whether choosing for less quantity or larger quantities. If you suggested this because of the egg-hunt eggs, i'd rather having a "minimum quantity space" where u can type the minimum quantity per listing items sale that auc can show you.

    There already is a delay, that delay is ping. You can't list multiple items at once due to ping. I like to be able to list my items fast so I don't want a delay to be added. If there is actually an issue with someone using a bot to list then thats up to the devs to ban them for using 3rd party software on the game.
    I always list bulk quantity usually but it takes me 7s to make 10 listings, I don't want it to change to be 27+s for 10 listings.

    Periodically increase it till a certain point like start with 2 then 5 10 and 30 at max so like after u put something like 5 times (within a minute) u get 30 secs timeout every time for 2-3 mins duration

    I thought a better idea.
    1.Allow players to spam items but if it's identical just stack it on auction.
    2.Allow players to choose how many items they actually want to purchase.

    So, if you only want x998 items you can, instead of having to buy everything. But now we won't see x999 individual items from one player.

    Sorry, no current plans for an auction delay at this time, but I'm still not entirely clear on the problem you're trying to solve with this proposed delay.

    However, I'll make a note to investigate auction listing logs to see if players have placed more listings than are currently possible manually. That might clue us into a possible problem/solution.

    So, if you only want x998 items you can, instead of having to buy everything. But now we won't see x999 individual items from one player.
    The actual problem is, that you can have 1 player filling 250 pages of auction. This can be exploited to deceive players into thinking an item is worth less than it actually is. Because of how long it takes to see the previous prices for this item. Current resources allow us to search for higher quantities, like x999, but it's not sufficient, because if we want a lower amount with a better price, it won't show up until you scroll those 250 pages. This was heavily abused on Egg hunt, but it happens less intensely with other items.
