This is the fifth time I've killed a union member in a job fight. I didn't know he was in my union till they told me he was. Joy max should allow the job alias to be a greenish color when it comes to union and guild members. They can also keep it the way it is, and just put the guild names above the job alias. Either way is fine with me. Trade runs are not that fun anymore...

The whole alias system is bs anyways, if you're a trader you can't pm a hunter to ask him to join his trade, unless you know his real name.

I wish they just put names and guildnames back, also as statussymbol

in our union we just put our guild name / something to represent us in our names.
For example my guild puts _LND at the end, and everyone knows they're from Life_N_Death guild.
whiteangels use WA, defiance uses def .. etc.

Same here. It works pretty good. I do see people freaking out in union because they killed each other though. Not everyone is that smart. Lol

It isn't hard to find who is who by knowing their buffs, skin, gear, and build itself. My union knows who I am since well.. I used that thief name since.. lol. When I made my warrior.

To avoid union on union killings either announce in union chat or have tags in your alias.

Ex- my guild is eXe. I'd put something like eXeternal or something retarded like eXe_Toshi.

Aliases are fine as long as they keep it for the thieves. I don't know why a trader or a hunter should hide their identity. It works more on thieves due to their nature. I miss the days when I see a pile of trade goods on the ground, I can just hover my mouse on it to see the owner so I can PM them that it's all safe, etc.

Then i'd be a spy and put _LND in my alias (even if im not in your union)

I think the point of having an alias is to prevent people from causing drama. If your in a godly union, then it cuts a significant percent of jobbing fun. They simply should allow people to PM via alias ONLY WHEN THEY HAVE THE SUIT ON.

Back in the day, I'd ride horse through tiger mountain to DW, looking for jobbing action. Find goods, PM trader saying "Hey, I found your stuff, do you want it?". Now if you find loot theres not a lot you can do.

I like the job system, it allows me to be badass!

And not to mention some annoying union mates, the only chance to kick their ass is when I'm in the suit :p

I just wish they would give the whole update with the new suits n stuff. But sometimes I do miss the old days. Like right now on venice, everyone is thief. Theres like no hunters/traders. So if we had the old system there would be people switching back n forth so there would be constant action. But instead we have a dead server :banghead:

Read what he said, when he finds trader goods he usually pms the trader but he can't anymore cuz of the aliasses. So just rev6 it then. Don't rev6 a thief name or w/ ever when you run into him ofc >.>

Or while your trading you can spell the name out to a friend and he will rev6 it. I think rev6 should remove that feature.

That's why JM want u to make a full party with hunters when u start from town, not just call a random hunter in the ferry for help :D
When u cooperate with someone, u need to to spend all your time to play with him, not just because u play with him when u only need him

+1 Cant tell a trader to come get his shit when the name isn't real. A person should be able to be pmed when in job with the alias name, so annoying.

I do agree though that aliases should just be for thieves. Everyone else should be identified. Then you know who's your guild/union. They won't necessarily know who you are though, but that's kind of the point.
