Were Purples Always Like This?

They changed to that when i18 came out and they could be purchased with Hero/Villain merits. It's dumb.

There's a bunch of things that are showing the wrong message in the /info window. Someone needs to go through the database with a fine tooth comb and make sure everything is pointing to the right entries.
@Roderick
"buy me" is the default text, I think. I first saw it on uncommon salvage in the AE.
Mini-guides: Force Field Defenders, Blasters, Market Self-Defense, Frankenslotting.
So you think you're a hero, huh.
@Boltcutter in game.
Completely unrelated to the actual topic as it turns out, but I just had to share: I logged in a character last night that I haven't played in a long time, and found his market slots full of purples I had bought for 36 million inf apiece. They're all going for over 100 mill now, mostly over 200 mill. Yay for me, but it is a point for the people who worry about inflation.

Well, to help fight the inflation, you could sell them to me for 36 million. Even less if you want to really stick it to the system.|

Kill 'em all. Let XP sort 'em out.
Oh, I only fight inflation when I'm buying. When I'm selling, inflation is my friend.

3 issues ago I sold 3 stacks of 10 hecas I had bought waaay back (last logged the toon 500+ days ago!). They were bought for like 12M each and I sold them during the mm in ae bug for like 750m each. That funded alot of prestige conversion....and inflation is mostly a matter of poor inf sinks and increased earning power.
Don't like the high prices? Then change how you play so you're selling more than buying and you'll love them.

I find it funny that all the Vanguard NPCs outside the Vanguard buildings are still telling me they have to check my clearance, and that only level 35+ can enter RWZ. lol.

No, it's not another thread about the drop rate. No, this thread pertains to the descriptions for Purple Recipes in their info window. Not the one from right clicking in the recipe window, but from when someone drops the name into chat. Has it always just simply read: "Buy me?"
