OK, this has nothing to do with the pharple, dathomir, hunting or anything ingame at all.
I guess you figured that out, eh?
Without sticking a post up that made it too obvious from the title alone I wanted to ask our mature, responsible, professional fellow rangers to try something, just as an experiment. It's for the good of the community and, well, our peace of mind.
As you know we get the occaisional errant trade request wandering in and settling on the front page. As is our nature we leap in and flame merrily, in good humour of course, but some people get a wee bit upset and it can, occaisionally, spark off a rash of one star banditry.
If we, as a community, adopt a policy of politely pointng them at the No Trade post, possibly the How To Hire A Ranger and Rangers for Hire posts, then let it alone, the nasty, dirty trade post will slowly slip off the front page.
Then when OTHER trade posts wander past, don't see any trade posts on the front page, theres a higher chance that they'll just move on along and not land.
Unfortunately, every time we add to the origianl post and say "Oi, lookit, they one starred the lot..." "how petty..." "gaaah, BuntyHounters, what do you expect..." it floats to the top again like something foul in a swimming pool and, just the same, it attracts flies.
Eh? Whaddaya think? Reckon we could do it?
Come on, I know you lot can, cos you ARE teh uber
I'll be leading community singing round the campfire at seven, bring your own bottle, and marshmallows, sausages will be supplied...

wow, we had a 1 star bandit through here. Also, I wanted to float this to the top. I read the title and thought "Pharple? Do they mean Purbole maybe?". Also, I agree with this. Lets not go psycho over those that are idiots

Here's how lame I am...
I thought the title was the start of a Ranger joke!
So I was hunting pharples on Dathomir and...
(insert witticism here)
Anyone got anything? I could only come up with lame answers

And this guy says to me, "Quenker? You brought her!"
I know, I know. But it's the best I could come up with.

5* for you almagill!
I'm going to write a quick response to trade request posts and save it in a word file. That way, whenever there's a "looking to hire a ranger for 5k for my entire jedi trial" post, I can just paste it in. It will be polite and have all the links to the relevant threads.
Again almagill, thanks for taking the initative on this high-road endeavour.
