Well, i have not played here for long, but in the time i've been here, i get kinda annoyed by hearing the same "B/S/T: random item(s)" messages about 5+ times per hour.
I think it would be better if there was a seperate trade channel, that can be switched on/off, just like the main channel. Then people who have something to buy or sell can switch that channel on and people who have no interest or have already heard the current offers like 10x can switch it off and still listen to people talk on the main channel.
Don't know if that's possible, but as the main channel exists, i thought that it can probably be done.
Hope it doesn't piss you off, that someone new already suggests something.
Thanks for your input, it has been suggested a couple of time, for the time being we've decided not to add one, but we may reconsider at a later point in the future.
