I've noticed there is a lot of Buying, Selling, and trading going on in the main area. This is good!
Some people are abusing this and spamming and obliterating any possibility of chatting. I've reported two people for this type of behavior, but decided not to continue. It's more pervasive than I thought, and I'm not sure if they even think they are doing anything wrong by spamming.
I would like to see a Buy/Sell/Trade (BST) channel that is separate from the main chat channel. It would be some other color (purple), you would type to that channel much like you type to guild chat.
/m for marketplace.
The marketplace channel could be universal to all areas (like guild chat), or zone restricted (most BST is done on the main ship anyway) - and you can choose whether or not to subscribe to the channel at any given time, with either a simple menu toggle and/or a chat command like /mt for marketplace toggle or something like that.
BST chat would no longer be allowed on the main chat channel.
This seems to be mostly consistent with other games in the genre.
Thoughts?
