Market Stall Title

[Kylon]

Is there anyway stalls when you look at one can have the players name on it?

The trouble being there are so many stalls and some are so close together that you click one look at the prices, open another few and then want to go back to one previously and to always remember the name of the char you clicked on is almost impossible.

Remove stalls all together in my opinion, whats taking the TM so long if you dont mind me asking?

I never buy anything on stalls as I simply cant be arsed looking through them all. Ive been looking for gold ore for the last few days, but searching 100 stalls is just horrible so i pick out about 20 random ones, forget where ive looked and give up. I actually usually just go round the stalls on the outside who put themselves in some clean air, as its stupidly congested in the middle of the marketplace. Its so hard to find what you are looking for, as unless the person has set the stall title as the particular item you want, then you literally need to click every stall to avoid missing out.

Stalls also do not promote healthy competition between sales prices, because by the time someone has actually found what they are looking for they are generally just happy to pay the price that is there rather than search through the other 50 stalls to see if its a little cheaper.

I dont ever have anything to sell as I give anything I get away, but if I did, I wouldnt set up a stall. Its not efficient to sell on your main character as its tied up in gameplay so you can only really trade when offline. Because of this, you have to make a noob char to do your bidding. Then you have to trade all items over and it just seems like a lot of hassle to do this every time you want to sell. I bet there are others feel this way and have stores full of stuff they could sell but cant be arsed with the hassle to make 500k, so in turn, buyers are not finding what they are looking for.

I know the GMs really like the stalls and sing the praises of the feature, but its flawed in so many ways. It is a unique feature and I thought it was great when I first saw it, ill grant them that - but I think its proven to be impractical and maybe they should just scrap it instead of being so stubborn and refusing to completely remove it, maybe because a lot of work was put into implementing the feature into the files and they have an emotional attachment? :P

I never have an issue with stalls at all, in fact I like them as I can make money buying and selling items from stall to stall. Also I see the TM driving the price of the items into the ground

I've got 3 P12+ If you want to buy :P

Simple make the Stall area twice as big and when you tele in you go somewhere random rather than the same spot all the time. That way stalls should be more spread out.

Another suggestion would be to create fixed stalls and players just use a vacant one. If they were all in line it would be far easier to see what's for sale. Make sure the tele spot in is not in the stalls area.
Would look much more organised as is the usual market place.

Wouldnt solve the problem of stalls being hassle but yeh, its a great suggestion and would certainly go a long way to making the marketplace more user friendly.

Charge for using the stalls also to drain money from game, along with stalls in fixed places!

This is the only reason why I don't want to see the TM put in game, because this will happen 100%. Then the servers economy will be totally screwed. But no doubt a lot of people don't care, and will only regret this once the economy does die.

This is something I've thought about loads lately, double the size of the current map it's definitely needed. The market won't make you feel as though your suffering from lack of oxygen, and will be much more pleasant on the eyes since you'll be able read stall names and know what stall is what.
