rejected - 12hours to get it.
expired - open.
no bug - if you know you have an expiring broker, you should get it.
if you think a trade will not be accepted, don't make it...

according to the market broker page:
NOTE: If you are initiating a trade, and trading your goods for Naquadah and THE TRADE IS ACCEPTED, or initiating a trade for your Naquadah, and THE TRADE EXPIRES, the Naquadah will be put into your bank - IF YOU HAVE ROOM!
If your bank is full, the amount is left 'in the open' (so if you have a full bank, it is advisable to be online at the time it is accepted/expired). If you cannot hold the Naquadah in your bank, and cannot accept this risk, do not initiate a trade where you are trading Naquadah.
and i had room but it still went into the open.
are you wrong or is the broker page wrong?

Wow have you just opened up a whole world of great ideas.
I can seriously imagine saying "Broker me 20mil UU on id ######, Ill pay 800mil/k. ~Apart from the fact I dont have a bank of 16tril :S
Do it and as soon as it expires RAID RAID RAID RAID RAID

interesting how no response comes from admin when it doesnt affect his friends yet again?
i wonder how quickly this would have been resolved if it had been one that was affected?

sorry man but forums already answered you, if expired it goes out into the open, you only get 12 hours if its rejected. i know it prolly sucks losing 2 bil naq but theres not much admin can do

if it goes into the open then why does it say itll go into your bank?
hes leaving the broker system open to scamming which is what it was supposed to stop.

Im just speaking from my own experience. TBH I don't really care what the case is or isnt suppose to be. Im just stating that when I was online I noticed a broker had expired and the naq was put in the open.
