can we have a combined trade channel please ?
rather than having a separate channel for each area
so trade shouts would be world wide

just go to the market that's where most of the (non forum) trading seems to go on

/joinchannel themarket
Problem solved.
Everyone on this channel trades regardless of where they are, ie. world trade channel.

I think both Trade and Advice need to be worldwide channels.

I would rather see /squelch account developed first.

A combined world travel would have the benefit of Newbies being able to see proper prices much earlier, and the possibility of a scam would be lower.

I like the idea of a world trade channel. If im in house d doing whatever and someone is trying to sell a scroll i want, i can see it and respond. Otherwise i would never know. It could also free up players time rather than standing around the mp waiting for trade responses when they could be running around selling, restocking or whatever.

Make it default to general tab, seperate from zone /trade. Then give the option to deselect it from showing in that tab (or showing in other tabs if you prefer).
I feel stupid running from zone to zone to sell a duplicate item I picked up.
Or, after EVERY bug has been fixed, maybe add a tab to social for trade. limited to one trade at a time, auto drops after 5 minutes.

as long as you can shut those suckers off, they can do whatever they want to them. I think it was perfect world that had that annoying dam world chat that was impossible to turn off.

so is this a suggestion for two separate channels? One for the world of Eberron, and one for the world of Fae'run?

Technically we already have a world trade channel. It's called The Auction House.
However, I would fully support the trade chat channel (and also the advice channel) broadcasting across instances. If someone in House D has an item to trade and I'm in the Giant Hold wilderness I'm not going to hear about it. Similarly, if I have a question that I ask in House K and the person who knows the answer is in Meridia it reduces the chance that I'm getting an answer.
Also, it's not as if this isn't do-able. For example, the Auction House in Necropolis is the same one in Meridia, with all the same items for sale. If I /tell someone in Water Works while I'm running Party Crashers my message gets there, regardless of the different instances. Guild chat works for all in a guild regardless of where they are. So why can't the /trade and /advice channels do the same?
The OP's suggestion really just makes sense.
