One already exists. It's labelled "Other." Notice how often it's used? They don't care because they're trying to make their adverts appear first on the list.Quote:

02-18-2018, 11:09 PMSerLukeYeah if this stuff was being listed under other no one would care(I know I wouldn’t) the fact that they are mislisting to get to the top of the list and some days flooding the top of the list (as demonstrated by the OP’s screenshot) shows this warrants GM action or at least some sort of UI change since it’s becoming disruptive to PFQuote:

I made a thread about this very thing back on 01-04-2015 09:37 PM and like 99% of the people in the thread absolutely disagreed with me when I was suggesting making a separate section for buying/selling stuff whether it'd be content or for crafters.
My how the times have changed.

Ability to "Right click > Report RTM/Illicit activity" please!...
If selling plots of land was considered illegal then selling "content" should also be considered illegal and yet they've been on the PF for the longest time without being punished, SE must change this abuse!... -

Now here we are and other people seem to be in agreement that those types of party finders shouldn't exist. Just take two seconds to read the posts in the thread I made/linked and see the difference when I'm talking about quite literally the same types of things.
I'll even give a pass for crafters advertising / and static recruiting but even back then people were advertising selling content and it cluttered the party finder even before we got cross server and all those category tabs.
The excuse back then was that it was "Party Finder" and it didn't matter what they put since you could put anything in your comment and as along as the people who joined followed it it was a non-issue, which is what someone tried to reference a GM saying.
Maybe you didn't read the thread I linked? And just seeing what those people were saying in reference to basically the exact same scenario here. -

Spammers abusing Party Finder aren't even content with a single listing at time.
Please give us the tools to blacklist and hide these RMT spammers that junk up PF for the whole datacenter.
