    Default Trade advertising in the LFM window.

    Its becoming common again, and its annoying.

    I suggest whenever you see this you send a friendly tell saying "No thank you Im not trading." or "Thanks for asking but Im not trading now."

    Be polite but do it every time. Youre not harrassing the spammer because he went out of his way to put the add where you were looking and youre just politely responding.

    If everyone does this maybe sellers will stop.

    It is a bannable offense (warnings are given first) to post trades in the LFM. You can just report them also if it annoys you a lot.

    This, along with using the LFM board to recruit for their guild, is something i've been seeing on Orien a LOT lately.

    It sure is annoying to see that post up there for 30 minutes to an hour before turbine decides to give them a warning.

    Report them... They usually go away very quickly if you do...

    Is that true for the "I need a ship invite to craft" LFM's?

    If someone is using the LFM for something other than creating a party then it is against the rules.

    This one really remains a good and unanswered question. There is -no way- of getting onto another guild's ship without being in a party with someone of that guild. No way. Ergo you HAVE to form a party to do exactly this, so it can't be against the rules. If it is against the rules then Turbine needs to come up with a more specific list of exceptions to 'only for creating groups'.

    Happening a lot on Cannith too recently. I know you're not supposed to do it but didn't know it was banable. Guess I'll report some peeps if it keeps up, I hate spam......

    1. Why is it such a issue for people to want to use someone else's boat? Crafting may need to be done ASAP, and they may be on timer for shroud. And not everyone has a high level guild. I actually find it more annoying that people think there boat is too holy for anyone but there own guild


    2. If those trade lfm's bother you so much, don't look at them. Reporting for that is weak.


    3. You know what's the lamest lfm's? "Private" "Insert Random Guild Name Here" That is what guild chat is for. That should be the real reportable offense just because of the shear stupidity.


    Edit: Oh, a neg rep for this? Lawl

    Let me counter that with a +1. Think I got neg rep for saying the same thing some time ago about private LFMs lol. Also, it took me 2 days to get an invite on a ship to craft some greensteel a while back. I was asking on trade chat though, not posting a LFM. I'd get tells like "go shroud" or "there's tier 2 in amrath" when I asked for that one. Was obviously not flagged for Shroud at 11 and couldn't enter Amrath either for tier 2 because of the level requirement but I had shards and mats from previous lives. Funny how ships are off limit.

    Anytime you need a boat, hit us up. It's always open homie.

    Unless they've changed it recently, the ship altars require you to be level 14 anyways. Edit: I suppose it's worth mentioning that I only tried the tier 1 altar and gave up. Tier 2 & 3 might have other requirements, but I rather doubt it.

    Edit2: I suppose to get back on topic...back when I could report, I'd report the trade ones all the time, and they'd go away. Most of the others seem to stick around. It's essentially spam - some people don't mind, others are annoyed by it.

    I didn't have the required level for shards either, but the mats still all went in the altars and mixed to get what I wanted, at level 11 Dunno if it is WAI or not but it still worked. This was 2-3 months ago.

    +1 to make up for someone's obvious touchiness as you touched their sore spot. Don't you dare ask to play with their shiny toys!

    When is crafting ever needed ASAP?

    2. If those trade lfm's bother you so much, don't look at them. Reporting for that is weak.

    They're still in violation. And it clutters my LFM screen.

    Just because you can't get in them doesn't make them stupid. At least the LFM is being used as intended.
