I opened up (P) when I started up the game, its a really neat thing, and will most likly be used for Trading....sorta like an auction house.

You should all check it out, its going to be super dandy for like forming parties, or making trades.

Plus, the parties stay there, so theres no need for spamming if you want to sell something!

VERY NEAT!

Much thanks to Anet, this was a much needed upgrade!

Ok I just checked this out and it's damn sweet. I do wish that you could sort or filter out by trade/mission/quest/etc etc. Unless I somehow missed on how to do that of course...

The addition of the trade system was a nice surprise. Hopefully it will cut down on the trade spam. And it sure would encourage me to trade more.

It's sort of funny seeing those idiots posting garbage like that on the party search window. Makes it easier to get themselves banned as opposed to just saying it in local chat.

I'm already seeing immature things in this party window. People asking to buy 17 year old males, 18-30 year old males..among other disturbing things.

This is awesome, the only suggestion I have is that a sort function be implemented.

Also what's even cooler is that it goes across all the districts in a town. So you could see someone in d1 selling something you want, and while you're in d57 or whatever u can add them to party and it transports them to your district. Thus reducing the need to have everyone in d1 or d2 to trade effectively.

Dont get me wrong, I love the new Party/Trade, but witout the ability to filter out all the trade calls I fear it will essentially be a trade system.
Where it has always been most needed(IMO), a party system, is the in big trade towns,LA,etc... so know we have it but it is spammed with Trade requests. which is totally cool, if I could filter them out, and not have to search thru, what will be hundereds of entry's for people trying to form up. So please, I beg of you devs, please give us a simple filter option, I sor off surprised it is not allready there, but I imagine they might have rushed it a bit to be ready for the X mas update.Thank you, but please give us filters. Merry XMas, Happy Holidays.

I like this, but there are a few minor things that I would like to see added:

1. Increase the description size. It's kinda small (31 characters). I'd say around 50 would be the perfect number.

2. Show class/name of people in the party when hovering over a selection. For me this is a key feature missing because I like to evaluate what I'm getting into before I join, and plus I'm so used to it when getting invited to groups it's strange not being able to see it here.

Other than that, it's great. Good job Anet.

A sort function definitely would be an improvement.

I do not think adding the function to filter out the trade would be good idea. If such a function is added, people would began using the "mission/quest/hunting" part to advertise trade message, making the whole thing a mess.

I know, but didn't have time to edit it, a mod can edit/remove it if they want.

Yes i agree and was going to say it myself, theres no better/easier way now to filiter out the racist kids for monthly banning with this new feature installed.

This is a great feature and i agree with others in this thread, a sort/filter would be perfect. On this note maybe something like this:

1)Mission
2)quest
3)Trade
4)General
5)PvP

The Party Feature Is Awesome:

We do however need a TradeTab button for all the Trade messages to go into. Outside of that it rocks..

Oh sorry forgot - We do need a message that states if you abuse the system your account can be banned. I mean who wants to see fing that or this in the party message system.

Take Care...
