I think there needs to be a solution to the minor problem of, lets say, someone says "LFG Quest-A"

and you are doing quest A too, however there are a million people stacked into your town, and you are reduced to holding ctrl and browsing through all the moving names to find the person who wants to quest with you.

If instead, when you pressed someones name when they say something in hte chat-area of hte screen, they were targeted by you automatically so you could invite them to your party, or trade with them too, that would make it a lot easier.

Type their name into the Party Members window and hit Enter, problem solved. Whether they accept or not, you can then click the name and boom, they're your target. Stop being so lazy. Close this please.

...or click name in chat, then click name in whisper window that pops up, highlight the name and press ctrl+c to copy name, then Ctrl+v in invite window to paste the name. It sounds like alot, but once you do it a few times and get used to doing it that way, you can invite someone in less than 3 seconds.

Yes the type-in name thing works, but it could be made better and I think it is a worthy suggestion.

I only way I could see making it any easier is making it so when you say their name into a microphone, it automatically adds them to the group. But the only problem with that is, trying to pronounce those really difficult names.

it could be made easier, what if you want to trade with them?

and....

..i admit rather sheepishly that i had no idea you could go /invite person or type the name in the window...

but it could still be easier.
