Trade Guilds need to be larger, and more functional

This game insists on no auction houses. Fine, it's an interesting idea, and I respect it.
But given the current state of the game, and the drop in general activity, trade guilds need a boost.
a) increase the guild size to at least 1000, but ideally to as much as 5000. That would create a much more vibrant market.
b) Please please please fix the dreadful guild store search functionality. It really is awful. We need people to be able to search for items they want.
With these two fixes, I think the economy game would become much more interesting.

Saltypretzels✭✭✭✭A better search function would be wonderful. I don't even bother with the store since search is so bad.1 -
TheVindelator✭✭✭I totally agree.
I think guilds should be larger or groups of guilds should be able to trade with each other.
I really love eso but this is the one thing about the game that's bugged me forever. Every other major MMO does it better.

Additionally, why can't keeps claimed by a guild open up their guild store to everyone that visits them in Cyrodill? It would be a way to open up the trade market without the need to add auction houses. Since keeps change ownership all the time, it would be an extra encouragement to capture and defend them.1 -
joshisanonymous✭✭✭✭✭Completely disagree.
Increasing the size could potentially get us to the point where we basically have a universal auction house. There is supposed to be a limited availability of goods for the current system to achieve its goal.
I have a trade guild that has dropped in activity quite a bit of the last week or two. Solution? Drop the guild and get a new one. You can already fix your own problem, hence one of the benefits of the current system.2 -

From what I've heard from old PTS players, it worked this way at once but caused some problems. I'm guessing guilds might refuse to defend another guild's keep because they want the opportunity to claim it themselves.
Honestly, I'd be thrilled if this system were in place, though. I mean, the same can happen with getting Emperor but it doesn't seem to be the norm. Most people, I think, would just play the game as intended without giving it a thought.0 -
pecheckler✭✭✭✭✭My issue isn't with the 500 limit, but that by the time a 30 day listing expires a trade guild will have gone from 100 people online 24/7 to 10 people online 24/7. And the player list never shows anyone having not logged on in 7 days. It's just that people to research and feed horses and then log off.End the tedious inventory management game.0

Worstluck✭✭✭✭✭I agree, at least with the functionality. I don't see how the upcoming tabards are going to help me sell or buy goods

Dovel✭✭✭Sounds like good ideas to me. A better search function, well any search function, would be a step in the right direction. And larger Guilds would be nice also.0
