    Default Buy for Baby Auction Announcements

    Just letting everyone know that all new Buy for Baby auction listings are announced automatically with a new thread after they are submitted. These posts are made with the username Buy for Baby. This eliminates the need for people to post about their auctions and try and find the correct links, etc.

    Is anyone else frustrated by this extra 30 minutes every time a bid is beaten? I understand that it helps the buyer get more but I don't want to be glued to my computer for the whole night! A few minutes I'd understand, give people a chance, but this half hour each time seems excessive. Yes, I know there is proxy bidding, but even that I don't like to put my limit on as people just keep going until they reach it anyway and sometimes I'm prompted to go higher if I'm actually around and it's not much more. To be honest, I'm very turned off by it and may not bother bidding again....

    I actually wasn't aware that it was enabled, so perhaps a better post would have been why is it that this is happening?

    Fair enough, I jumped to conclusions I guess, figured it was part of the new system. I apologise. It's still annoying though! I've probably been pushed up $40 extra in the past two hours!
