Ok, this thread is about how it seems that in this game it is impossible to buy
a specific thing you are looking for, especially in heavy districts such as L.A. d1 or
droks and such. The idea is that if u are searching for a specific thing, for example a sundering hornbow, you dont have to strain your eyes trying to quickly see if someone is selling what you need.

So, i suggest that by typing a certain combination, you can get your chat filter in trade only to display that specific thing you are looking for. THe symbol can be, for example a dollar sign at the beggining and end of what you want to buy.THerefore, if i wanted to buy a sundering hornbow, i would type this in the trade chat: $sundering hornbow$. Its a minor thing, but I'm sure that many players, such as merchants or so, would greatly appreciate this.

...all u have to do is scroll up.

how would this filter work? if u put $sundering hornbow$ and i type WTS Hornbow 20/20 sundering would it pick it up? or just WTS PERFECT SUNDERING BOW PST TO SEE! ...what if i mispell?...theres too many variables
a better idea would be to install an AH ...but theres a discussion for that, i would assume, so....

i would think something like this... if you write $Sunderring hornbow$, then if anyone who says sundering and hornbow in same message, those words would been seen yellow by you.

Trade channel should have a feature which creates a link to your trade inventory so everyone can see the stuff directly with all stats just like they would own it already. People just click the link and check them. You can name the link whatever you want and it is colored. That would reduce local chat selling A LOT.

Well, the whole purpose of this was to reduce unwanted messaging, so u could
buy what u wanted much faster, or at least see if that district has what ur selling.
