Thread: Advertising 3 (Planetary) and server restart
This issue needs to be fixed, if a vendor is registered before a restart, it should still show up after a restart on the planet map! On days where the server isn't back up before I leave for work I lose countless thousands in sales because people looking for clothing can't find my shop. This should be a simple fix, as the vendors are still registered (Have to unregister before listing them again.)
Dev's, please make it so once a vendor is registered, they stay that way till deleted or out of funds.

It does need to get fixed eventually, but since they haven't added the fee that registering a merchant is going to cost us, I don't think it's one of the biggest problems the merchant currently faces. If we were getting charged like we are supposed to this would change.
From a personal standpoint I think most of my customers who come to my shop aren't coming because of my global listing, most of them come because they've been around before and know I sell at a good price. The people who come via the global listing don't seem to buy quite as much as return visitors.
