Its annoying when you have to type in items stats in the trade channel and it takes ages and then you realised you cant fit it all in.
SO why dont they have a system where you can drag the item into the trade channel to create a kind of link, so people can click it and see the image and the stats of the item in a window that opens when the link is pressed.
This is kind of like everquest but i belive it could save alot of time......

Great idea. Or you what if you could just...like...double right click on the item and it would automatically print up the stats of the items in message text line for you. Then you could add your price in and jsut hit ENTER

yeah, agree on that.

but no, it's not from everquest, if from... let me think... maybe it's first implemented in AO, Anarchry Online, maybe

Make it like WoW, I can't remember how it was, like Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click and it makes a little link in the chat window. Was pretty cool, made selling on the channels much easier.

Yes, and automatically delete accounts that even type "WTS" in local.

Well, the problem of trading is bigger then this.
Altough not a bad idea, this would still force players to spam endlessly in LA dis 1.
A better whole new tradesystem (i.e. auction house like on GWG but in-game) is a more permanent solution.

I like the idea.

Im hopeful Anet have already improved on the trade system for Chap2 as this has been a popular topic of discussion since release.

like:
"Click here to look at Golden BlaBla Axe of BlaBla"
