MARKET MAP!!

[Lord Adjuchas]

Okay
, i think its getting REALLY annoying with all the lag in prontera.
i think it would be a great idea to make a market map. and i think it wouldnt be very hard either. a square map for venders!

let me know what u think.

Use the search function. It's been suggested many times before.

how does the search function relate at all to lag in prontera?

i personally agree with this but it's been shot down so many times that i'm hopeless of it getting done. the "oh but the server might seem inactive QQ" argument is easily fixed by an NPC in an obvious spot explaining the merchant map but w/e there are idiots who don't read what NPCs say.

Ok, so lets move the lag to another map. One that people will eventually whine about because there probably won't be any rules about spaces between shops (Prontera's street rule is one of them). So pretty much what we're going to have is a big disorganized mess. And without the vendors, Prontera will become another abandoned town, so its not like moving it somewhere else will solve anything.

Lined for spaces market map will be nice, and warp NPC can be added at every town (or live that for warper boy). Prontera lags are annoying ><
A long time ago I used to play at server where were market map with free vending and prontera vendors payed 100k or like that for setting shops.

After playing here for almost 2 years, i guess i could say i got used to the lag in prontera and im not THAT bothered my it anymore.

I'm pretty sure that, were a vendor map to be set up, the GM's would have the presence of mind to keep it organized.??Secondly, I fail to see how "RO's hometown" would be rendered dead just because all the autotraders got moved some place else.??I don't know about you guys, but I don't go to Prontera for the sole purpose of shopping.??o.0

lol if there is a market map. the prontera will become ghost town. and so hard to find the exact vendor you need to find in just one map /shy;

[Whispers]

The only server I've ever been on with a vendor map had sign posts every 3x3 cells and @whosells.??A vendor was to set up shop, one per sign post, directly to the left of said post.??The sign post itself read the coordinates for the cell directly left of it.??It was very efficient... and the map was huge.??lol

[EDIT]

It's occurred to me that everyone saying Prontera will be turned to a ghost town still wishes to hang out in Prontera regardless of the vendors therein.??So, if everyone who loves hanging out in Prontera still hangs out in Prontera if/when the vendors leave, how will it be rendered a ghost town???
