Advance apologies if this topic has been covered before. If it has, its burried so deep I haven't found it. I've noticed more and more traders hocking their wares on the Local channel, running over questions, mission requests, and just good ol' fashioned fun chatting. I guess since they're not receiving the instant gratification of 10 people wanting to buy their junk they think the trade channel is ineffective. In response to this, not my main objective mind you just something I do when I have a spare moment, I will send them a whispered message of "Please keep all trade confined to the trade tab" or something similar.

Amazingly I've seen results, I'd say maybe 3/4 of the people I've messaged have switched over. Some even going as far as apoligizing to me or thanking me for letting them know. I mean don't get me wrong I've gotten my share of "SHUT UP I AIN'T GOTTA LISTIN TO U!" and "---- ---- ---s", and my all time favorite "Welcome to my ignore list" .

So not trying to recruit a mass army of Guru members to correct other players. Just saying if you try it out you may be suprized by the results.

These are ones i found in a few seconds of searching. Ok, there isn't much in some of them, but then i think this has been done to death on other threads.

Just look harder.
