Hi all,


I've recieved a little feedback on some of the features that people would like. Here is a short list of what will be done in the coming months.


- Merchant Order forms -


I intend to impliment a system that will allow merchants to accept orders from buyers. For example: Buyer A from Naritus wants to buy a nice Power hammer from Merchant A. The buy would then goto an order page for that merchant and order the item, with specifics for the power hammer like damage over speed or vice versa. The system will then send an email to the merchants email address(given during registration), notifying him or her of the impending order. The merchant will then respond to the buyer via email(might go with a on site system that will allow for the merchant to accept or decline the order) rejecting or accepting the buyers order.


*Note: This will take some time. I have to find a user management system that will work well with the current layout and ad system as it sits, or rewrite the entire system to allow for this.


- Waypoint feedback-


This system will allow potential buyers to leave a feedback mark on the merchants ad. This will help keep the merchants updating thier ads. I've already had some complaints about waypoints in ads being wrong. This will change withing the next month or so.


- FAQ -


As I've gone through all the posts from the original open date, I have found that some people are having issues figuring out how to post, modify, or delete ads. Im going to write a FAQ on how to use the system. Although this may get put on hold until after I figure out the new site system and what features Im going to change.


-News-


I want to do a news system for the site, which will include featured merchants/ads, news about where the site is going. News from sites that I have an association with(swgcraft for example), and some other things. At some point this will become the front page of the site.


If you have any suggestions please feel free to post them here or send a mail to [email protected], I check this frequently throghout the day.


Thanks for your time.
