- Auctions - buyout

Just trying to get something clear regarding auctions.
I noticed that if an auction ends and there is no bidder at all, I recieve a notification telling me the auction has ended and there are no bids, therefore the item is being returned to me; this seems fine.
However, I auctioned an item that was bought by somebody for the buyout value; I suppose it was instantly sent to him. But I didn't receive any notification - when I watched the trade block this morning, I noticed I had no current auctions and the buyout value of the item in points was automatically transferred to my existing points.
Shouldn't I receive a notification with date/hour/buyer, telling me the item had been instantly transferred to the player taking it for the buyout value? Or are the auctions specifically designed this way (i.e. for anonymously buying the items for their buyout value)?

I'm a bit sloppy with my logs it seems

It logs failed auctions and bidded auctions. It should also log buyouts but I may have forgotten to add it.
I will add it to the todo list. There are a couple of guild events which needs logged too.
The things so big now that it's hard to remember how things work

Cool. I was hoping this to be just an omission. Indeed, there are some events that need logging (guild + trade block from what I noticed).

I can easily imagine that, heh. I'm just sorry I'm noticing stuff in such a disorganized manner. I'm only trying to help, nevertheless, so if I become annoying just tell me an' I'll pretend I didn't see

No, it's very helpful
