Current status of Auctioneer Classic

As of October 2008, Auctioneer Classic has been decommissioned by its developers.

What this means to Auctioneer Classic users:

  • Auctioneer Classic will no longer be available for download, and no further support for it will be provided here at Norganna.org.
  • No further enhancements or improvements will be made to Auctioneer Classic.
  • It is expected that Auctioneer Classic will not load without errors, nor will it function properly in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion.
  • It is likely that Auctioneer Classic will not load without errors, nor will it function properly in WoW 3.0 (expected to be released in mid-October 2008).

Why are you doing this?

A number of reasons:

  • Auctioneer Classic was very, very complicated, which made fixing it and adding features an extremely convoluted process.
  • Auctioneer Classic is not modular. There is no easy way to add new statistics, new searches, etc.
  • Auctioneer Classic was not built to handle the amount of item data available in TBC, and now WotLK. It is bursting at the seams now, frequently blowing up and losing your valuable user data. This will only get worse once WotLK is released, with it's assortment of new items.

Users have asked us to fix these things, and we have... in the form of Auctioneer Advanced. Auctioneer Classic simply did not have the flexibility to be able to accomplish these goals.

If I ask really nicely, or scream about it a lot, will you please consider fixing Auctioneer Classic and keeping it updated?

Sorry, no. Trust us, we know what we're talking about. Auctioneer Advanced may not do everything exactly the same way Auctioneer Classic did, but it is a far better framework for an AddOn. We won't be picking Auctioneer Classic development back up. Ever. So save your breath.

If you have used Auctioneer (Advanced) for enough time to get used to it, and have specific suggestions for improvements, we are of course happy to hear them.

What should Auctioneer Classic users do now?

If you are an Auctioneer Classic user, you are welcome to continue using it until it breaks, but we ask you to understand that it is now decommissioned, and will receive no further support from us.

We wholeheartedly suggest that you consider installing and using Auctioneer Advanced. If you make the switch while Auctioneer Classic still works, you can import your old pricing data to start Auctioneer Advanced off. Otherwise, you'll be forced to start over (which may not be a bad idea anyway, since pricing changes so much across expansions).

I'd like to take over Auctioneer Classic

In a phrase: have at it. Auctioneer Classic is distributed under GPL licensing. You are free to modify and/or redistribute it to your heart's content, within the confines of that license.

A word of advice - it is a pain in the butt, and there are few of its original developers still around to explain what is going on. Bring your big boy shoes.

If you'd like more info, background, advice, etc., feel free to drop by our IRC channel and ask away.
