Since Tyr has not been worked on for a considerable amount of time we could maybe think about removing all the dead end exits from rooms there which I assume were created as place holders.
It just gives the place a half-finished feeling.
And I get lost when trying to make my way to the arena :oops:

"who" doesn't show who wants to team.
But "who" + PO does. Like Laurel said.

A PO is a pain, you are out in the world hopefully notice the mail alert then have to stop what you are doing and come back to a PO. This could easily be 10 minutes later.
Plus are people just meant to mail a bunch of ppl they might not even know saying Hi wanna team?
That could be considered spammy.
Overall it would be a very inefficient way to handle this.

But once again this is maybe something where the players could shortcut the wizards and implement something outside of the game for now to fit the need.

I am thinking along the lines of a web page that has built in chat for evil-only, good-only, anyone LFG.
There are free services out there to accomplish this easily.
If it works well it could maybe be transferred to the official website or brought within the realms if a suitable theme can be found.

It is of course something that could be abused, someone pretending to be someone else and luring an enemy into a trap.

That Tyr is the last update i know, since when it used to be beside Gar and part of Gont. Very wrong in terms of theme, but handy, liked the old Karg caves there too.

Idea.. More Kargs in Gont, a lot more. Of varying sizes. The beach Kargs are nice a small for littleuns to kill, but the next karg camps are a big jump.

If its replacing an existing system with the exact same thing except for it being automated I don't forsee that happening as anything automated or global has been shot down.

If anything I would prefer something that notifies me of mail while in game a bit better. I missed the notice all the time

Actually I dont see how LookingForTeam system differs from remote auction system in sense:
1. global
2. remote information
3. instant message
4. contradicts real world.
5. inter player communication

Actually board/who/po would solve it also:
Got item You want to sell? put note on board. check who every 10 minutes and send request to all active players. Not comfortable? Spammy? Silly?
