exactly. that's also the reason i wanted it to show who placed the order and show the person buying who filled the order. it would break down some of the language barriers and allow you to see who needs help and who is willing to help. i think the game needs more ways to interact with each other because more interaction means more chances to make friends and in a mmo a friend can be a great thing.

the xp, gil, and guild marks would just be a way for you to entice more crafters to take part and help out. most would likely do so already, but an extra incentive never hurts.

That's what was so good about this game at release when the population was high. You could go to any crafting guild and ask someone to make you something.

I made so many aquiantances this way, english and japanese alike.

If they streamlined it with an actual hard-coded system, that would probably help a lot of people.

yes, when the population was high and you went into any guild there was 20+ people in there of all ranging levels someone was always willing to help. the problem i run into now is although i can make most of my own items the server is dead. i am always making items for friends for free and mostly only ask for the cost of the guild support or shard cost or materials. i just enjoy helping people. on my server if you go into a guild and ask for help there's usually only 1-2 people in the guild and maybe one is high enough to help.

at least this way if you go in and nobody is there you could order it and an inflated price(it'd have to be for the market to not get destroyed by buying from a npc) and it could stay up for a set amount of time. this would keep people from sitting in the guild and waiting for someone to come in to help them out. i stated inflated, but i am not talking about a drastic increase, but a small amount higher than that item can be expected to be purchased in the wards.

Perhaps include a service charge for advertising your wanted item in the guild?
