Party Finder and it's static recruitment usage

[Krojack]

Can we please do something about this? I'm getting sick of looking for groups and having to deal with at least half of the listings just in there recruiting for a static group or other silly things. Either add a system just for recruiting or start making these reportable. It's getting very annoying.

Using Party Finder to find a long term party (static) is just as valid as using it to create a short term party. I fail to see the issue.

This is much more preferable than sale spam. Just saying.

Short-term parties for prog or farms don't recruit using the duty roulettes so as to get more views.

Wouldn't necessarily help if roulettes continue to get priority. The situation is unfortunate, but it's just another symptom of the "me, me, me" mentality. This is said under the assumption that it's incorrect listings you're referring to. If the recruitment is being done using the correct duty or no duty (placed under "Other"), be glad you have a considerate data center.

"Or start making these reportable"

I swear, this playerbase sometimes...

If these people started spamming in chat for statics, you'd be the first to report them for polluting your chat window.

If they tried to do it in the forums, you'd also be the first to report them for spamming the forums.

A static is a party. They need a party. They're using party finder.

I'd tell you to suggest for a notice board but you'd also be the first to report them for spamming it up too.

Ugh. /facepalm

SE could also, in theory, make a separate category for static recruitment purposes and add it right to the party finder tab. No idea what they'd call it officially, just an idea I'm throwing out there. They seem to prefer reusing systems for more than one purpose, so...

How about we report everyone from now on who dares to use the PF for anything? What sadness must haunt your life if you want to report people for that....

And that is an excellent suggestion. Take notes OP. This is how you offer solutions without the need to take extreme measures.

This is what I'm talking about but it seems everyone here wants to make PF entries for Hells' Kier but not really looking for a group. I'm getting sick of seeing 10+ PF groups and half of them being "looking for members for our static blah blah". They would rather SPAM up the PF system rather than have a category for recruiting.

It's ok that you didn't read the part where I stated "add a system just for recruiting" or just have selective reading disorder. I'll forgive you this time.
