Since the game lags/glitches alot and some gold purchases are quite high, there should be a confirmation window when spending over 1000 gold at one time. I'm tired of losing gold because of known issues with this game that nobody will fix. When you create a buy order and the window disappears right as you click "add buy order", you can accidentally buy 5000 fuel for 2500 gold because that is exactly where you click to "add buy order"
Warning/Confirmation button for large gold purchase

When will this be fixed? The market buy order glitch/bug is getting old.

My bug report is now a month old? It is obvious that this legitimate bug report is being ignored. Par for the course.

Can you be a bit more precise what 'tricking into buying fuel' means?Sarah / Sasri

Answer = On two different occasions in two different games, I went to place a normal market BUY order for a random resource. After entering the amount and price, I went to click the "Add Buy Order" button but the market screen lagged/glitched and disappeared while I was clicking my command. Because the market screen vanished simultaneously to my mouse click; the system bought (UNAUTHORIZED) 5000 fuel for 2500 gold. This is not a case of Buyer's remorse...I had plenty of CASH and NEVER buy resources with gold.
The "Add Buyer Order" button is right "in front" of the fuel/oil for gold option. The only work around is to click the very bottom left corner of the "Add Buy Order" to avoid this happening. So far, the game has tricked me out of 5,000 gold which would take over 2 months and 2 games to earn back in a 100-player map -
I'll see if we maybe can move the pop up a bit, so the 'Add Buy Offer' button does not overlap exactly with the purchase of oil.Sarah / Sasri

This sounds a bit like a graphics issue, that may be something specific to your computer.
What browser are you using? I prefer chrome.
And you can see I have plenty of separation between the "add buy offer" and "golden oil"
If you use "full screen" mode do the buttons still overlap? I ask because on one computer I have played on the "hide market" tab is hidden below the bottom of the screen normally, but using the "full screen" mode makes it work properly. (I can post a fix for that as well. On my Wife's laptop the browser is set usually at 110% or 120% zoom, using the CTRL and + buttons to zoom within the browser. I can use the CTRL and - buttons to zoom out making the market show more normally.War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin keep out of the way til you can. - Winston Churchill

Again, the original post is about having a warning when spending large amounts of gold...this isn't about workarounds with browser settings or graphics cards.
Cmon Vorlon, get out of your "i want to be a mod" mode for a second and think big picture.
Here is what I see every game = gyazo.com/ff5395017e35eeb2f84d1ddd4746638d

This screenshot would have added a lot to your initial post, and to your explanation above.
I now understand what you mean that the "add buy offer" button from this screen IS overlaid above the "gold + oil" button. So if an initial click of the button does not make the buy resources window vanish the natural tendancy is to try and click the button again, thinking you didn't actually press the right spot. BUT the window vanishes just as you click, and the button behind it is activated instead.War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin.
