TOPIC | New forum Catagory: Services

No need to ping! I'm subscribed!

So, this suggestion is pretty simple: introduce a new forum category for player provided "Services." Right now, the Items for Sale forum is where all these go, and if can cause some clutter and make it difficult for user who are actually trying to buy/sell items. A new forum category could fix this and allow more visibility for both sides.

Some examples of player sevices that could be moved to the new forum could be:
  • Dom shops
  • Coliseum Grinding
  • Dragon training
  • Baldwin brewing
  • Swipp trading (player has the swipp item, and they trade you for the materials, so you don't have to wait for the trade in swipp)
  • Nest rentals (thank you for reminding me @/treeblood)
  • Auctioning Services (suggested by @/Blushunt)
I would say that selling/Buying gems can stay in items for sale, since it is more of a "transaction" than the services are.

My only thought against this would be that these services are Player provided and are based on trust, so they are not supported by staff. While I've never had any issue using any of these types of services, I know that it can happen! Perhaps the forum could have a disclaimer with it to serves as a warning for users.

Though I think the same goes for the Art sales forum, so perhaps the new forum wouldn't need a disclaimer?

Let me know your thoughts! Feel free to add your own ideas too!

I collect Tundra and Obelisk skins!
Do you have what I need?
I'd support this, could possibly include nest rentals, dress up shops etc. as well.

I don't think a disclaimer would be necessary - as you said, the Art Sales forum doesn't require this, and most service providing threads already put in their own disclaimer anyway?

I rent nests through the nest network.
Hmm, i could get behind this. Would help with clutter, and make posting where your services go easier to figure out.

I get too many pings, please PM if you ping and I don’t respond
@treeblood
Oh yes! I forgot about nest rentals! Those would be perfect for a services forum too! I think that Dragon dressing/scrying could probablly stay in Dragon share potentially, but it IS a service so it would fit too!

This would be really useful, especially since that forum can get cluttered very easily with even things unrelated to FR. This could help take away some of the clutter.

(Please don't ping me in the Suggestions Forum).
Support! I use a lot of such services and it would be great to not searching for a domshop between few pages of sales threads.
Auctioning services might also be an example.
