The total number of lines displayed at any given time became five, with the top one scrolling-off as another was added to the bottom of the list -- slowly, slowly, as if I really want to read and marvel at the content and the colors of the characters in each line, but a work of art it isn't.

So, what can I say about this? First of all, I am a member of three major trading guilds, as well as two others which have Guild Stores and, usually, a Guild Trader too. I am not online playing TESO 24 hours/day. When I log-in to play after at least 8 to 12 hours offline, the total number of items that my characters have sold is ordinarily at least 40+, usually 50+, and often 60+. (As many as another 24 messages are from Hirelings, among other senders.)

Do you really believe that I should want to sit and watch the line for each sale slowly scrolled on the HUD at the outset of my log-in? What is your point? Worse, there is absolutely nothing else that I can do while the list is scrolling, and overwriting anything else that is displayed in the same location, such as the UI Error dialog shown in the screenshot. The only way to end the scrolled output is to run Task Manager and terminate the ESO executable. Then I have to repair the installation files, and delete Arkadius' Trade Tools from the Addons folder before I log-on again.

Though I don't know about you, frankly, I have better things to do and the data displayed in that manner is of no use to me whatsoever. I am much better off to simply access the E-mail UI, examine each message, detach the GP or other items, etc. and either delete or retain it. If I need to make a note about one or more of them, that's what a memo pad and a gel pen are for.

If this behaviour can be disabled, then please disable it by default, so that new users are not seriously inconvenienced by it. If it cannot be disabled, then you really do need to make that display a configuration option that is disabled by default. Else, your add-on is of no use to me at all, whether as an alternative to Master Merchant or for any other purpose.
