Map invading....this BS has gone to far

As far as I'm concerned, both parties are in the wrong here.

First we have "douchebag" #1; he creates public parties for the sole purpose of promoting his trade offer. No matter how you look at the noticeboard and its role, advertising trades is not on its list of features, although you can see why it can be easily abused. Furthermore, this
douchebag has the nerve of acting like the victim, when he's the one that started all of this.

And secondly we have "douchebag" #2; he invades the public parties of douchebag #1, with the sole intent of gaining wealth on someone else's back. Furthermore, this douchebag will act as a bringer of justice, purveyor of evil, cleanser of the Noticeboard; even though he knows that what he is doing is unethical.

Conclusion: in the end, who can blame these douchebags? everything is permitted in the name of all that is holy, WEALTH; much like real life, go figure.

*douchbag (general term, used by me in this post, for a certain group of people, that unfortunately has access to online games, and the internet)


Agree on everything except "advertising trades is not on its list of features".

Where can I find that list?

That part is pure speculation on my part. I'm almost certain the devs did not intend for it to be used the way it is now. As I've said before, you can see why it's abused the way it is.

what if everyone who is selling/buying something abuse Party board for that?


To be fair, it isn't the "Party board." It's the "Notice Board." It doesn't specify that it's just for parties, nor does it say it's just for trading, so both should be allowed.


As long as the only way to get on the board is to create a party, it's a party board, IMO.

It's not like you can just walk up to the board and type out a notice.
Dunno. Dont run maps you want to do alone when opening a trade party mb.? Its not that hard to solve imho.

Also, as group leader you can kick people before they enter your maps (given you opened enough EtLabs).

I'd do it this way, they cant reenter your group after kicking AFAIK, and you can contact them per PM. If they want to trade you can reinvite.

*There is a trade forum.
*There is a trade chat.
*Yet you invade the party board?
*Do you really think anyone who has enough orbs to affor your overpriced low roll soulteker/shavronnes and wants to buy it will go looking in party board?
*You want to buy a soultaker/shavronne? Fact you are not using poe.xyz.is indicates you're a noob and probably mistook exalts for chaos. (or an ashole trader trying to throw his net in all places possible)
*You invade someone and they aren't hostile to you and actually play with you as he would in party (like he is a iir culler and asks you to let him cull)? Don't be an asshole, tell him that wtb/wts aren't welcome on party board and he'll understand and have a nice map playtrough with him.

And the first thing when you need to make a trade is ...? Thats right, get in a party.

If you're looking for a deal, do your homework and make a decent offer. If I have to set a b/o via request, it will be non-negotiable.
Hmm, when I get home tonight I'm going to roll some mid level maps to have the most dangerous mods possible. Round up the entire maps worth of monsters, stick a tp right in the middle of all of them, and create a trade party for these clowns to get themselves slaughtered. I've got an aegis character so I'll be just fine during the process.

Not that I care much about mapping while having a wts/wtb party up. But whiteknighters are really lame.

I have used the board as have many others for WTS/WTB etc. Simply because it branches our market out more. The trade system is atrocious in a trade focused game. So apparently I hear of this reddit bullshit, to take back the board. Well if I recall, you can narrow down your search on the board. For me if I want a group for maps, I type in map - to then see groups doings some maps, etc. I had 6 people fucking hop right in my map and start killing and looting shit. You have got to be fucking kidding.


the fact that you still have the 'face' to make this post says something about you.

Yeah it would be nice if the devs would implement more ways of creating parties than just posting public ones.
