Trade chat channel

Hi all,

I have to turn off /zone because of the flood of WTS/WTB spam. It's annoying, since there's otherwise very helpful chat there re: world boss spawns and build advice and group formation... But the signal to noise ratio is SO out of whack, as it is now, /z is worthless and squelched by everyone I know.

How hard would it be to create a simple "Trade" channel?

Thanks.

    Despite its many problems, I still love this game. A fix or two or three like a Trade channel could go a long way.

    Trade chat wouldn't really fix much. Some people don't know they want something until someone has linked it.

    How else would someone contact people with their useless crap who aren't interested? Everyone would just turn trade chat off and it would be dead

    3. 3: Though our paths may have diverged, you must continue to live out your life with all your might, you must never consider your own life to be something insignificant, and you must never forget about your friends who loved you

    /trade doesn't work unless it is simply a subchannel of the zone you are in. Else you would have 12349471029347 players potentially all on the same channel.

    ...and having /trade as a subchannel doesn't work because few would use it properly. It is like why non-english peoples insist upon using /z (and not regional language chat) even though /z is generally English-based.

    Thus not much options remain. It is what happens when you have Megaservers.
