ARGH! Bazzar Limit reset to 500!

[Lothay]

Since Dec 1 2003 the bazaar limit of active traders has been reset to 500. At least, on Tunare.

Extremely frustrating.

Edit: Already bug reported.

[Saleani]

/bug it. Its 550 on Luclin.

[Myrron]

550 on Vaz too.

--Myrron

[Elinea]

550 on Tarew Marr....and still not enough room =/

[euridice]

I'd like this cap to be attained on mine
on Sebilis there are only between 80 & 100 vendors at a time

On Kane Bayle it flucutates from 100-300.

Right now? 256

FWIW, Veeshan is also hitting a (rather cramped) cap at 550 traders. I'm guessing we could have another 50-100 traders up at peak times if the bazaar permitted it.

At the very least, a "queue" function for going into trader mode would be a godsend.

On EMarr we hit 550 vendors every morning between 2am and 3am EST. Right when the USA West Coast guilds go offline and Far East guilds come online.

And usually when I'm going offline and want to set up my trader :b

Even so, at that peak time for bazaar merchants on EMarr I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes for a spot to open up.

Thats almost exactly what Tallon Zek sees too... I rarely ever see it over 350. I would actually like to see a few more traders up - our prices are astronomical as any economy student might expect... *sigh*

[Sanna]

Sullon Zek: I cannot remember seeing more than 200 traders... except maybe once... maybe.


Kryos, queue idea: oooooooooh..... me likey.

The bazaar has reached its maximum number of traders.
The bazaar has reached its maximum number of queued traders. Please try again in a few minutes.

hahahahhaha.

we can only hope it wouldn't work like that. Hopefully:

You'd try to enter trader, get the max trader message. You would opt to enter the queue, and get "Your trader queue number is [whatever]." If you left the bazaar you would lose your queue spot, or maybe you could manually exit the queue. you should also be able to check how many (but not who) are currently in the queue, and if you are in the queue, that same command would give your your place.

/trader

/traderqueue
"Your trader queue number is: 29."

/traderqueue out
"You have been removed from the trader queue."

/traderqueue check
"There are 120 queued traders. You are number 3."



Hm... so you enter trader queue, but you can still run around in the bazaar, deal with your bank, etc. Do you get a 30 second warning? (Maybe that incriments in 5 sec, like camping.)

"Your trader spot will be unavailable in 30 seconds."
"Your trader spot will be unavailable in 25 seconds."

Meaning you have 30 sec to get under a trader tarp so the queue can put you in trader, or else you'll lose your queue spot, or maybe be bumped down once. If you miss your 'call' twice, then you're out of queue.

Maybe get a warning when you are 3rd in line... 2nd in line... 1st in line, the next spot will be yours... then, if you're already under a trader tarp, it will assume that's where you want to be put into trader, and boom, there you are.



Crap. I need Ring of Classroom >_< running away, gonna be late.

I still think it's an interesting idea, tho. (much moreso than my class! heheh)

You are an evil, evil person.

You are also probably correct.

Still, Sanna has some good ideas on how it could be done. We can hope, we can pray, we can wish, we can dream, we can/feedback ...

[splunge]

Right now: 35 traders
Max ive ever seen: 70 traders.
