I think an Admin should si there and give week bans to people who persist to trade not in trade chat, that would surely set an example

However the reconnects is like... emm... sex? yeah its like sex only better.

Well i just got to use the great new reconnect feature and it sucks imo. MY DSL dropped me, GW froze(love those wavy skills you get), i looked at my modem and see that its not connected to network anymore. In 15 sec it was back up and running, 30 sec later i was surfing the web with GW window on side waiting for reconnect, about 5 mins after i dropped i get the try to reconnect question. Of course being in HA my party had already left. If it takes that long for them to recognize a drop, then its really going to hurt u in pvp. If i can reconnect as soon as my network is back up then maybe I will be happy.

No JR happened several times but i don't bother waiting 5 or 10 mins to reconnect,once my network is back up for 2 mins and im still just standing there i give up. Its already been pointed out if you go afk for 10 mins( iwas a monk) bad things will happen.

And you are basing this opinion on........ ONE attempt?

Try again bro. Not to mention that was *your connection* dropping, so don't moan about it. Getting disconnected from the server when it is something on Anets side always allows for near instant reconnects - from my experience.

Reconnect one of the best updates ever in GW.
Party search a great improve to.
My sugestion: Just ban the smart guys that use it to trade announces.

1. I don't know if you noticed, but I'm fairly certain that the party window was also intended for trading. If you use the drop down where is says "mission". There is also a place to select "trade." A quick fix to a long time request from GW players.

2. I wouldn't say better than sex (at least good sex), but close!

But, unfortunately, if you drop whilst loading an area you can't reconnect. It only works if you drop out during a game.

Yep, makes me sad cause those are the only kind I get

Although, maybe it's just me, but it feels like I err 7 while loading into games much less than before. Perhaps they strengthened the netcode a bit while working on reconnect update?
