the reason so many ppl have the trade off is cause they don't want to freaking trade get a freaking clue. there is a reason the chats are seperated it's so the ppl who don't want to trade don't have to hear the crap. if ppl would just realise not everyone wants to trade the ppl who want to trade most likly have the trade chat on. so keep your trading crap where it belongs it's not a hard thing to ask of you.

no, its not a hard thing to ask. but by punishing people for different marketing tactics is entirely communistic. i mean come on, bans for selling things? thats just bull. people WILL always find a way around, and proposing to ban the smart ones is just a load of crap. i dont do this myself, but i do NOT think that those who do should be punished. sure, local trade spammers are annoying, but get the hell over it already. i think this ill thought out, selfish, and leftist post and idea should be shut down

yeah well what about the poor newbies who can't get any help cause no one can read there messages due to the buy sell spam. like i said in my first post the dam chats were seperated for a reason

How about no. Banning players because of something you find to be a problem fixes nothing. In fact, nothing the game can do will fix the problem. People who do not want to trade turn of trade chat, so players who want to sell use regular chat. Why? Because they hope to change your mind. Perhaps you will see someone selling that Willcrusher you have been looking for, and at a price you are willing to pay. But since you had trade chat blocked, you would never have seen it if the player used that chat.

Even if you never have traded and never plan on trading, using regular chat for trading is now the norm, and we can do nothing about it.

I always answer player's questions when I can, and I never have trouble seeing the questions. That handy little whisper box? works great in these cases, if you are worried they will not see the answer. If I you think I would turn local chat on more if it was impossible to sell in that channel, you are wrong. So it has no effect in this case.

This is by far the stupidest argument i have ever heard......people use the local chat since the yellow text stands out more than that pink crap u get for the trade channel......change the trade channel text color to like a lighter pink and people might use it. also dont go to dis 1-3 in a town. AND I DONT SEE THE POINT PEOPLE SELLING STUFF IS NOT ANNOYING.....u just have bad eyes and cant read what people are actually talkin about......need to talk to ur guildmates? invite them to ur team and team chat or pm simple as that. U GUYS ALWAYS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE GAME BUT NEVER HIGHLIGHT THE GOOD POINTS OF THE GAME.......

and yet you miss the hole point again the trade chat is called trade chat for a reason same for local chat. keep the trades to the trade and this complaint wouldn't even have come up it's a really simple idea and yet no one seems to understand it i'm not calling everyone stupid but sometimes i wonder.

Plus! By now, you know usually the first 3 dists of ANY major city are spammed, thats why I hop into 4 on up. Use SMARTS, man! Instead of complaining about what they're doing, just don't go to dist 1-3!

Solves a lot of griping. I sometimes even use the regular LOCAL as a trade, seeing as Trade is spammed and local stands out over the spam of red as white..advertisement is key.
