Party Search is a GREAT idea but so far it's underused because really all it does to help find a group is help you search for groups in other districts which is useless because well you often won't have more then 1 district in empty mission.

A good solution would be to make this feature continent-wide which would solve a number of problems.

1. People wanting to do quests could easily hook up and do stuff together

2. People seeking to do hard mode missions could easily get together on a mission that they all need.

3. Traders could hook up easily.

Well I can only say, that I think it's a really good idea.

I'd also suggest that if this is implemented, then when someone puts a message in the party search then it remains there even when the player changes towns or districts. This will allow traders to still hop around but keep their trade message in the party search. Maybe only apply this to trade chat.

I'd also prefer making the party search gamewide with the following optional filters:
- If a message is being posted from a town your current character can't reach, then the message is suppressed.
- You have a selection of checkboxes corresponding to each region in GW (kryta, kourna, jade sea, etc) then you can suppress any message from that region.

Should have been done from the star, there MUST be a reason why they didn't do it. (I'm guessing ,if it was like this it would mean they would have to us more bandwidth , its still something i want.)

At least region-wide (Ascalon, Koruna, Kaineng, etc...) would be enough for us.

Sounds good to me. The window would need much more organization. But this would rock.

Absolutely /signed. I know that sometimes I'll be in an outpost but I have a mission or quest I need on another character, so knowing someone else needs to do it would be very useful, and more people would start grouping again rather than simply playing with heroes.
