Would it be possible to have your total net gil based on your Auction House history at the top of your auctions? It would basically just be your total gil earned via sold items minus your total gil spent on items. So it could be displayed as a positive or a negative.
For example:
If you sold a 1m item and bought a 500k item your net gil would be +500,000g in green.
If you sold a 500k item and bought a 1m item, your net gil would be displayed as -500,000g in red.
I would guess this would be a very useful metric for farmers and crafters and would be a pretty easy implementation from a coding standpoint I would think.
Thanks.

Sounds like a cool idea, but I fear many of us would be in the negative, earning gil from bazaaring currency/ alex/ hmp/ what not, also including chocobo blinkers and mercenary work.

Pretty sure FFXIAH was like that when the site first began, but they removed it after sometime.

That's true, but his point if that some players are purely selling/buying through AH, such as a mule would do for example.
Doesn't hurt to add it as an option, maybe?

I myself ask because I have 4 mules that exclusively sell farmed items while I only buy items on my main character. Would be nice to compare what I'm spending vs what I'm farming.
You could average your daily gil earned or spent which could be useful and interesting data.

It's been added. Some might need to hard refresh the player page to see.

Can you make it so only the player can it when logged in?

Should make it an option to have that view able or not. I personally would rather not see it, and it is very misleading due to my income coming primarily from bazaar.

Also, since this thread was answered quick, and my suggestion has been ignored before, can you please bring back the Average/Median/etc on the bazaar feature?

All it is is a calculator. I don't see why people wouldn't want it when you could get the same exact information from manually adding together what is already visible and available. This isn't giving out any information that isn't already available.
It may be misleading to some but those some know that this isn't a good metric for their gil use and should therefor just ignore it, athough I personally don't have an arguement for it not being an option that can be turned off. I definitely still think it should be available whether its on all accounts or only on those that opt into having it.

How about only the character owner can see it? Everyone else will just have to get a pen+paper.

Option would still be the best if it's easily doable. I just feel like it looks ugly visually.

I also vote for option because some players might wish to display it on their page.

Pretty awesome addition; thanks Scragg.
I'm guessing that those of us who've been inactive on FFXI for a couple of months won't be able to view this feature. Am I right?

It shouldn't matter if you're active or not as long as you have a AH history on your player page.

My AH history seems to have disappeared from my page once I turned my FFXI account inactive a couple of months ago.
Unless AdBlockPlus or Ghostery is somehow blocking the AH history from showing on the my page on my PC. I'll see if disabling those changes anything ...

I do not understand what seems to be the "privacy" arguement coming up, like I said it is not giving you any data that isn't already accessable. If people don't want it visible then why would they bother having all their Auction House history visible?
If it was cleaned up slightly with color coordination, boxes, etc. I think people may like it even more.

Nope, that didn't work.
I wasn't really too alarmed when my AH history disappeared from my page, weeks ago, since I've been inactive on the game itself.
However, now I'm interested to see how much net Gil I've (probably) lost!

I think you do have a setting somewhere disabling the table, I'm not sure.
Would it be possible to have your total net gil based on your Auction House history at the top of your auctions? It would basically just be your total gil earned via sold items minus your total gil spent on items. So it could be displayed as a positive or a negative.
For example:
If you sold a 1m item and bought a 500k item your net gil would be +500,000g in green.
If you sold a 500k item and bought a 1m item, your net gil would be displayed as -500,000g in red.
I would guess this would be a very useful metric for farmers and crafters and would be a pretty easy implementation from a coding standpoint I would think.
