Merchants, moreso than any other class have urgent problems, as our bugs relate to players losing items.


#1) the stockroom bug needs addressed ASAP! I currently have over 250k in resources lost in my vendor, this has nothign to do with a stupid mistake such as deleting a vendor with items on it, its a valid vendor who has resources, whenever resources are purchased, they cannot be retrieved. This bug is also keeping me from upgrading my shop to a large house, because there is still hope that i can retrieve my items(as well as the other 50 customers with lost items)


#2) sorting a list of items in a vendor should sort ALL items currently for sale, not just the current 100. for example, i have 140 items on my clothing vendor, and If i put a councilmans robe up for sale, it will go in at #141, the vendor displays 100 at a time, so i sort by title, and it doesnt show with the C's, i have to hit next, then sort, this is just rediculous and is very bad for business, could also stand to make the NEXT button a little more attention grabbing.


#3) fixing ad barking II will relieve 2 issues, obviously it will help the ad barking feature, but at the same time, there are certain messages we would like to convey to our customers, even when were offline, such as "dont offer items to the resource vendor, he will eat them". or "currently paying 4c/unit for ore". I currently am placing a bunch of tech packs, and naming them as my messages, and that is pretty ghetto.


#4) the servers resetting the planetary advertising is evil, i log on after 12 hours to extremely minimal sales, usually due to no planetary advertising.


anyways this is just my 2creds hope someone finds this useful *hack cough devs..*


but on the upside, the game is playing well for me other than these issues, and im having a ton of fun!

Add to that, Hiring IV merchants don't wear the clothes you give them. Which is probably a good thing - who wants to see a butt-ugly fat-arsed Human female in a revealing fleshwrap.
