Forgive me from trespassing staff, but zorra, what shotgun said is true, if he hasn't heard your bid in the past then he doesn't have to, it's only after he hears it that hearing future hears becomes mandatory

Thank you for this, but don't post in this section if the topic does not pertain directly to you.
Bids on auctioned items do not have to be "heard". What shotgun did was within the rules.
Clause 5 - Auction Channel
Only auctions and questions pertaining directly to an auction are permitted in this channel.
By starting any auction, you are committed to sell that item.
You may not cancel an auction after you have heard the first bid.
Make sure that you start the auction at a reasonable price, as even if you are unhappy with the final bid, you must sell the item.
You are allowed to ignore bids from certain players at your discretion, however, you must do so inclusively. Once you have heard a bid from a player, you may not ignore that player’s bids for any reason for the duration of that auction.
False bidding is not allowed. If you are caught bidding something that you cannot pay, you will face punishment.
Auctions must use the same currency for all bids.
You are allowed to use netherstars or any other form of currency you choose, so long as it is EcoCityCraft related, as long as the auction remains in that currency for the duration of it.
If not specified, it is to be assumed that all auctions are to be bid on with EcoDollars.
Bids can only be accepted in the auction channel, and auctioneers may not accept bids from other channels or via Private Message.
Do not extend your auction because you are not happy with the results. Long auctions should be taken to the forums.
There is to be no “mystery auctions” - all items in auction must be specified exactly as they are, and must follow the rules for renamed items and any other trading rule regarding how to be specific about what your item is.
On the same token, it is the responsibility of all bidders to be 100% sure of what they are bidding on before they bid on it. If you are not sure, ask the auctioneer to specify what exactly is being auctioned, or any other questions you may have pertaining to what is up for bid.
