Remote Auction House access
Signed. It would be really nice when crafting up IOs for badges or for characters to be able to sit in the base, snag the salvage from the market, craft, and put into storage without having to zone.
the reason it was disallowed use in bases and mishs is cause it downloads the entire contents of the market on to the instance your in which causes a lot of stress on the server
i doubt it will be coming back ever
The reason it was removed is because each time it is used it downloads the entire market database onto wherever you are. This can cause serious server/connection problems and as such was removed from game.
As it stands, a snowball has a better chance of surviving hell than that function has of coming back.

Everything placed above this line is always IMHO, YMMV and quite certainly not to be taken too seriously....
Ok, in light of the information provided by Necrotech_Master, here a new suggestion.
Given that the actual auction house remote access feature put a lot of stress when used in instances and assuming that the major part of the problem is the bazillion recipes, enhancers, inspirations, what have you for sale and not our personal stuff on the market, a new base item could be added, a terminal that would give us limited access to the AH, only showing us our "Stored" and "Bought" tabs. So we could only take out and put back in items, but removing the "post" and "find" buttons.
That's the old suggestion.
We used to be able to access it from really everywhere including inside our bases and even mission instances.
It seems someone thought this was somehow overpowered because a few patches ago we lost that. I suppose that for the server a mission instance and the SG bases are the same kind of instance.
It would be nice to get that access back, maybe from an item we have to buy and install in our base if making the difference between mission and bases is too time consuming.
