Suggestion on minor & major features/improvements

This a Million times this.

Mail between characters would be nice to include items, a nice way to do this would be how Neverwinter Nights has implemented their mailing system.

There are 2 ways to mail items.
[character name]@[player tag]
@[player tag]

this is very helpful as you can mail yourself with @[player tag] and the mail is accessible by all characters on your account on that shard.

So What?

Either move the Market to a system like GW2 where only the lowest price is shown for goods or make it like EVE. I would prefer EVE as it has the best Market system in all MMOs at the moment that I have seen and I have played many MMOs. Also having both Buy and Sell orders would be awesome.

However all I see is players putting up large blocks of 50-99 of an item because we have such limited sell slots. I think people would break theirs stacks more often if we did not have the # of auctions being limited per retainer as tightly as they are. Honestly I would prefer there be no stacks when buying or selling items just the item and how many available and how many you want to buy. It would buy at the cheapest price of sell orders and sell at the highest buy order price.

With regard to quantity buying, why not implement a discount system? Off the top of my head, here's how it could go:

• Seller puts up 99 superstuffs at 100 gil apeice (total for stack = 9,900)
• Game asks "Would you like to offer a bulk discount, yes/no?"
• If Seller answers Yes No, the stack must be sold as is (any Buyer must buy all 99)
• If Seller answers No Yes, the "standard discounts" will be displayed on the Market Board

The "standard discounts" would be

• Buyer buys 1-10 items, pays full price (100 gil per item)
• Buyer buys 11-25 items, receives 5% discount (95 gil per item)
• Buyer buys 26-50 items, receives 10% discount (90 gil per item)
• Buyer buys 51+ items, receives 20% discount (80 gil per item)

Seller wins because they can list more items in fewer spaces, while still being accommodating to Buyers who don't want/need a full stack. Buyer wins because they can purchase as much or as little as they need.

This. This makes sense.

While that sounds like a nice system it fails the KISS method. Either allow one to buy part of a stack or don't. But making fancy break points that work for you may not work for another or the discount scaling may not be right.

Voice chat system period, it's a lot quicker for us PS3 players and certainly for our PC counterparts to just simply talk than to type, especially mid-fight when there's a heap of things going on and you have to stop to type out alerts for the most important, which leads to a quick death for you, and the party possibly.

I also agree with the player who suggested the EVE Online style marketplace (sorry I forgot to add your post to the quotes here) as just the simple act of being able to post 'wanted' style ads will basically make the markets function a lot faster without items sitting around forever waiting for the off chance of someone possibly wanting them.

I just wish I could still PM people while in dungeons or during dialog with an npc :/
