Good positive post about changes that can be made. Lots of thought went into it as well. I approve

Thanks for the nice reply Zeel. It is pretty difficult to think of search and all of that on top of the game I'm sure, but they've set up a really good foundation for what can be done in the future.

I've seen a few threads about suggestions for the GTN floating around the forums, so a friend and I took them to heart and decided to do a more detailed analysis of the GTN. She and I are both trained librarians/information scientists that work with search systems and classification, so we have a pretty good background in suggestions for the GTN. We actually based the suggestions on a thread that was active a little over a week ago, but have a lot of other information in it as well. If you have the time please check it out: http://tl-dr.ca/?p=450 If you have any other suggestions let me know.

Thanks, I will do that.

Then I get to pay myself 5,000 credits for fulfilling a bounty! I kid, I kid. You wouldn't get anything except a respawn timer.

Good idea! You can find the thread on the RP forums here: Enjin RP Forum Thread Anyone is free to redeem this bounty, and it's repeatable.

A Sith Pureblood with shining gold jewelry walks to the front of the room, clearly about to say something important. The murmur of the crowd waiting to be addressed barely seems to notice. Come to attention and listen. Even without seeing the sneer on his face, it can easily be heard dripping from his voice. I, Aceris, Sith Inquisitor, of the Imperial Vanguard demand your attention. Disobey and perish. Upon hearing the threat from the Sith the group goes quiet. The Imperial Vanguard has begun the battle against the Republic, slowly whittling down their ranks whenever they are seen. Their numbers are vast, and the whittling must be done faster. Aceris' face takes on a radical change, instantly becoming friendly and welcoming, a slow smile on his face. The Imperial Vanguard is authorized to reward you handsomely for your work. Starting today, official bounties will be offered by the Imperial Vanguard and its members for jobs done. Having said his piece, the Sith strides out of the room, smirking to himself at how this turn of events will benefit him and his own private endeavors, as well as those of the Vanguard. ((OOC This is an ongoing Bounty set forth by the Imperial Vanguard. It's something we've begun "in house" but we think it would be fun for everyone else on the server as well. The goal is to increase the "RP-PVP feel" of the server as a whole, thereby helping the community. Bounty: Anyone with a non-RP name. Reward: 5,000 credits per kill Additional reward: 5,000 credits if you write up a (short) story of the encounter. 1) A screenshot of the kill must be posted to get credit for the bounty. **Create a new thread with the screenshots and/or story** 2) Warzone kills do not count. 3) If you posted a bounty and haven't been paid within a week, please contact Aceris in game. (Or another IV Commander) 4) Repeat collection of bounties are at the discretion of the moderator (Aceris). (Don't farm the same person over and over, basically.) 5) Please be respectful. Taunting, tea-bagging, trash talking etc. will be cause for disqualification of the bounty. The goal here is to support the RP community, not alienate people. Good Hunting!))
