I'm a frustrated armorsmith on Flurry..

I listed my stuff on the bazaar, but appearantly, my shop is too far away from Dantooine Mining Outpost (650meters) to be considered "in this region".


SO, if i want my stuff to be seen on the bazaar, someone would have to click on "this planet" which would then display about 4358453454358 pages of armor, and mine would be somewhere in the middle.



I was thinking...


instead of sorting by:


"entire galaxy"

"this planet"

"this region"


we narrow it down a bit more, to this:


"entire galaxy"

"this planet"

"within 3000 meters"

"within 2000 meters"

"within 1000 meters"

"within 500 meters"


now i think this would be a MUCH better way to search for items. I personally don't care about a bone armor helmet that is 8700 meters away, it just takes up space of stuff that i might be interested in buying.




just a thought....

they need to break the categories down more. For example, misc has way to many things if you are trying to find a particular item, like food.

This is one of the reasons why us nay-sayers didn't want this function. And lo and behold, SOE went with the easiest implementation that used the existing fubar-ed bazaar interface.

Perhaps they'll do something about the bazaar now since they responded to people's complaints about not being able to find anything.

the -ed is not needed, It's allreadyF---ED Up Beyong All Recongition, Ya See? Should really read "that used the existing bazaar interface that's (totaly, uber, massively, supremely) fubar."



That's BS that You're not in the Reigon, Reigil Stepes is like 5km Squared, in the Middle of Dantooine and the MO's probobly on the edge of it. Really though, they should remove all the armour types ( no scratch that, ALL ITEMS ) thatareutterly useless. because all it does is take up space. I can no longer use crafting stations to hold my thousands of items over my house limit but some knoober is allowed to have 100 items of junk in his/her bank just from lack of real items and or skills to get them.
