You'd be teleporting to the market, not walking there. No market is going to make you walk there.

Why wouldn't the primary method of getting there be signpost though?

Turn tracking on and look at the barterstands at Brodgar to figure out why this is a bad idea. With the current LP system and the ubiquitousness of vaults, its trivial to steal from a place like this on an alt, put that in a lovely anonymous vault, and even if they do break in, its only a few hours work to make the next alt...

It would be nice, and I really did like the social aspects of AfO, but the game is not ready for it yet.

Gunnar I think AfO had an uptime and at that time Dis warriors would stand there. Anyone drops scent gets killed I think. Not sure.

That barely worked, it still got stolen from by supposed Dis allies... Also its quite a burden on the guards. With a more diffuse "trade league" who presumably all have access to the stands, and no access to combat characters to protect them as far as I can see, the problem would be even worse.

Plus, barterstands are a bit weird and don't accept some things that you would really want them to. I think social projects and cities like Brodgar are pretty cool, but at the moment its not really ideal for trade (and in some ways you could regard trading as MORE social if you require both parties to be online...)

I think what Gunnar was also trying to say is that, in this current LP system, it's so easy for any member with a crossroad to throw a minimal amount of curios on an alt, and get theft+vandalism and raid the whole place anonymously, that's exactly what happened to AfO with supposedly trusted allies with access to the crossroads, completely cleared the place out! On top of that Lvl 5 mines are the most explored mines in the world and really easy to troll bash, all around bad idea. :(
