They can always do ninja nerf like they always did. I think it was 1.05 or something when legendary was dropping like every 30 minutes or so, and then 3 days later, you get no drop whatsoever.

Does anyone else read these anti-BOA threads and posts and just hear AH Tycoons desperately trying to find anything to cling to to protect their ability to sell items?

Maybe but what I always read (and as you can read in the OP) is that people don't want to play the game for a long time. Don't want to play until I get the items I want but just trade for them to get over with the game asap. Don't want to play the game again with another character but trade for items because it's too much busy work to play that much. Seriously, if you people don't want to play the game, just don't play it. If BOA is such a downer for you because you have to actually play the game for a decent amount instead of just knowing the right persons and have enough gold/ real money to trade, don't play the itemhunt. If you don't want to play, just stop and be finished with the game. It seems like people don't remember back then when people could actually farm inferno and sold lots of good items in the AH. Everybody complained that the game is too short, too easy and so on. Now they implement something that it won't happen again and everybody complains that it will take too much time to finish the game so that they can move on.

Since the legs/set are BOA, if anything that can improve the game is increase the chance of them dropping not decreasing it.

It is another Blizzard's failed logic on what is fun. This is what happened when the developers don't even players their own games decided what is best of the gamers.

Set bonus is disgusting. If they want reference on how to correctly make set bonus, look at D2X set.

Here is the IK set from D2 http://classic.battle.net/diablo2exp/items/sets/sets5.shtml#immortalking

How about D3? Every set is the same garbage. Plus 250 main stat, blah blah blah...

It is a simple cost driven decision from Blizz:

More stash tabs = need for more server capacity = higher investment and maintenance cost

my 2cents

Plus D3 team is incompetence.

RMAH or AH didn't kill it. They build the game around AH. You are force to use it to progress because the game is item iLVL base. And the randomization is any mod can role on any item just plain stupid.

The whole game for all char is stack dmg, crit, crit dmg, ias, some health and resist. this is for all charactors.

The game need trading because how the game is design. You cannot survive high level with low level item. Your damage, your life, your armor, your resist, all tie to item. The item level determine those number. For example, I think the earthquake set is one of the coolest set, but if you collect the hold set at level 50, what good is it for you when you level 70? You will have to hunt for the whole set again.

D2, some of the end games item are in the level 40s, like Occulus and you still use it until level 90. Sure, they are better items, but the Occulus is sufficient. YES, every sorc has one and I am fine with it.

you guys can keep dreaming on PVP.

This game is designed to be a single player DRM.

Wheres your problem? Don't trade if you don't want to. The items wouldn't become worse just because of being tradeable.

Making items non-tradeable when upgraded will help keep the economy fresh. As it is right now its pretty hard to find anything worth selling.
