The people i traded with all did this to support to server, as they always state that theyre really happy that new content keeps coming! Since now the crashes are literally gone, instead of buying items from the vendor, they want to buy items from me that they really need.
I dont see the problem if i say i sell a cowset for 7.5k gold, i actually get the gold or let them pick all the items from Hadriel. as Alex said before, its much easier for me to pick the items myself this way.
Also im not the only one that got the power to do this, u guys can trade this way aswell.
