Guild bank is useless time waster

IBentley92
I'm sick of spending hours every day to stack items from the guild bank. Why is there not an option like in our inventory to press l3 to stack all items. Are you serious.

    Are you on console?

    If not, get the Roomba addon.

    But I agree with you.

    This option doesn't exist because when auto-stacking existed, it resulted in numerous item duplication exploits. For example, if someone was in the bank trying to deposit a stack of 10 pots onto a stack of 15 pots, and someone else withdrew the stack of 15, you occasionally ended up with 25 pots in the bank as well as 15 pots in the second player's inventory. To alleviate this, auto-stacking the guild bank was disabled, and each "stack" is counted as a separate item. There may be something they could do to get around that, but I don't know what that could be.

    Youd think so....

    Then again i would think basic bank features like restricted access tools and tabs would be a priority too... I wonder if guildbanks are an afterthought....
    This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!

    This could definitely be resolved by programming, in fact it has a name called a "race condition". Zenimax simply disabled it because they deemed the effort that would go into programming a proper solution to fix the duplication exploit wasn't worth the time.
