This should maybe go elsewhere, in some general game things, but I'm not sure so I'm putting it here. I would like to see the LFW tag stay up until I shut it off, or have an option to leave it on till I turn it off. So everytime I crash, server reboots, I log out or whatever, I don't have to remember to put it back up. People on my server never have LFW tags up, probably due in part to that, I know I forget a lot of times.

And could we add some infos on the LFW tag ? for exemple a "commentary" saying that we have skill in tinkering/transmuting, others alts or things like that ? There are a lot of infos for adventurers with the RUG I think but none for the TSers.

Yes, I agree about the commentary flag.  I always find it odd when someone has the LFW tag up (which is usually 2-3 toons on my server) and yet they are also /anon, so you don't know what sort of "W" they are "L'ing F" SMILEY

To be fair, the same thing happens with the /LFG.

SC

EDIT:  They do it with the /AFK, so not sure why you can't do it with the /LFW or /LFG?

I would just love to see LFW get the same treatment LFG did with an expanded UI and ways to expand on what you are able to craft, where, and how.

Bingo!Exactly what I was about to say as wellConsidering how often I see people asking in channels about needing a tradeskiller to make something, there is obviously a demand for the information.  The problem with channels is that I just don't read them while tradeskilling (too distracting).  A LFW tab similar to the LFG tab would be fantastic, also making LFW persist until you choose to untick it would also help.

Oh something I didn't think of with my OP which kind of goes with adding info to tags, I have 6 maxed TSers, 8 including tinker & transmuter which by the way don't come up in LFW but SHOULD. My crafting army is spread over 3 accounts, and sometimes the ones who could be getting the most business are not the one I want to have logged in all the time so I have to spam channels every so often.I have MANY friends in game who have more than 1 account also with several tradeskillers. Let us check off a LFW box of all the TSers we have even if that one is logged out. I'd also like to have a checkable box for no trade items that we can make. I include mirrors & porting flowers in my LFW spam. I often keep my lesser used character logged in, minimized, with a pre made macro afk tag up with info on all my crafters in its afk text saying /t one of the 2 I'm on more.

Amen!Especially with the new crafting missions coming up. This sort of thing, while a "nice to have" concept now, will be a huge boost when the missions come out.
