Is there a rule against non questing ads really?
It is fairly common to see trade ads for shroud large mats.
It has only come into spotlight now that theres so many guild recruiting spam.

Still, there gotta be a better way that spamming the trade channel.
Airship pawn shops come to mind.

Honestly I don't understand why the Dev's don't just add another tab to the social panel labeled..... wait for it .....


GUILD RECRUITING....

[QUOTE=Falco_Easts;3135109]They have a great way of recruiting, it's called grouping. Recruiting members for most guilds that you haven't grouped with is asking for trouble.

This is the response i got from a couple ppl on recruiting. Ok...ya that's great...if I want to do nothing all day but recruit. In my guild as the leader I already run events, run our own website, questing, recruiting, and then some. Finding or making groups can take up to an hour by itself...and if you are LUCKY you might get 1 person to join, but most of the time you won't. I've tried this method...to actually seriously suggest this is a great way to recruit is completely wrong.


However a bulletin board or another social panel as one person suggested, something built like the LFM or LFG where ppl can browse through guilds while in-game (cuz seriously...how many ppl really look for guilds in these forums? >_>) would be an excellent idea.

It has been a problem for a long time. There are posts about trading lfms from a long time ago.

while i dont like seeing all these join my guild and buying/selling my junk lfm's i wasnt a hall moniter in school and i am not going to be one here.i dont report people for anything that isnt clearly and distinctly offensive . ive just always hated tattle tales. just my opinion so if i offend i apolagize.

[Lifeblood]

Rules. The lfm's violate them. Yeah, my greenis made yours turn red.

What Caliber is that Greenis?

If fully cocked (thats funny) I can bring down satellites with it.

Seriously though, I am not going to neg anymore. I remove whole boxes. And I think it causes in game lag, renown farming, takes mantle charges, and makes pew pew pew dps really crappy.

must disagree with some... but the "trade" chat really S*cks... u want trade spamming away your chat?
dont think so (hope so) and i dont see you buying much from AH with those extreme prices because of the penalties others get from selling items there. If anyone about to be banned (or W/e might happen)... i say this. either u let them use LFM for it or make it so u can open a shop (ever played CABAL?) somewhere. ok this might only add to those who wants to sell/make it so u can put a text over you're head while in "shop" mode.

[sirgog]

Yes. Yes it does.

Oh my. Lol.

They actually have a trade feature for chat. Why don't we try that for awhile?

Maybe there is a reason your +2 rapier of vertigo +2 isn't selling? Icy Burst it!

That one person you got to join who you know is a good player is not worth spending time recruiting? You would rather recruit anyone and everyone regardless of if they suck or will boot hundreds of people from your guild during the night?

If your LFM's are taking an hour to fill, I can take a stab at where part of your recruiting problem might be.
