Why do people put their horses up for auction priced at 2147483647? For storage? And why not use a novice account for that?

And why is that number everywhere and always the same? lol it's been bugging me.

Why why why?

If you put too many digits in (eg 10000000000000000000000000000), then it gets shortened to the 2147.......

People used to use the auction houses as storage during sponsor time, before the ageless pasture. Maybe they're too lazy to swap accounts, lol.

lol ohh I was thinking that was such an odd number to be typing in

Sometimes it's for showcase too.
I put my foundation Finnish Horses studs up for that much.
No way in hell I'd ever let anyone breed to them.

And it makes it easier, because now they are not the first page, rather than the seventh or whatever.
