Yes, you are one of the hurting parties that suddenly decided to post after 2 months of you getting hurt ( and right on the day when we have killed the Wizards)
As I have said, anyone can use the market and benefit from it, if they will comply with the requirements. Last world two of our enemy factions were using the market and had their barter stands there without any problems.
By providing the market facility we aim for creating a trading platform (not an Utopian world). Which we have been doing successfully for a couple of worlds now (semi-successful in W6, due to lack of appropriate mechanics).
You have to stop the binary thinking, that if one does a community project, the person/faction has to be completely peaceful. It is quite immature and far from the reality. The same way New Brodgar are allied to the most blodthirsty and destructive group in the game. Although, they are meant to harbor noobs, that are being slaughtered by their friends.
