Default Proposed Solution: Chat Spam, Grouping & Trading

The problem:
In city and mission zones, the amount of spam from people trading and looking for groups overcomes any players ability to simply communicate with others socially.
Traders must incessantly repeat their calls for wares being bought or sold, as previous statements get kicked out of the chat window.
Same situation for "looking for group" players - current chat system is clumsy, inefficient and annoying.

The Solution:
Switches.
Players trading type /merchant to go into a merchant mode; this allows them to set up shop, and list wares for sale at desired prices.
Players looking for group type /lfg to become immediately flagged as available to any groups looking for players.

Problems solved. Simple, direct, and within current game engine abilities.
