Technical Information

The guild tab name is "Winds of Change". The Etrade Mic is controlled by this guild.

  • To pick up the boards, click on each microphone and select "Display the Call Board". It will tell you the current mod using the board and ask if you want to take over. Choose yes.
  • If you are standing near the mics, they immediately pick up anything said in main chat or Etrade chat. So it's important to move away from the mics before talking in any of these channels.
  • Posts made to Etrade will show up on the control boards. The "S" button puts the post on hold. The "P" button posts the message. The "x" button deletes the message. The boards can only hold 21 messages before they become full. Posts made to a full board are lost and never show up on the control board.
  • The control boards can be hidden via Self->Options->Interface Options. Scroll down to the "Other" section and click "Hide Microphone Callboards when empty" if you want to remove the boards from the screen.
  • Don't use macro to automatically post msg, read them before posting.

Basic Use

  • To pick up the boards, click on each microphone and select "Display the Call Board". It will tell you the current mod using the board and ask if you want to take over. Choose yes.
  • If you need to go afk for 15 minutes or less, it's ok. Ask in Winds of Change if someone is nearby to take over if necessary.
  • If you are logging out or need an extended afk, please ask for a replacement mod on Winds of Change channel.

Posting Guidelines

  • "Etrade" is mainly meant for trades but can also be used for any other events that serve community interests—such as notices of events, ibis, etc. We keep many posts off of Etrade to prevent the board from scrolling quickly. This allows players to check Etrade in-game and see all the trades and events from the last few hours.
    • WTS and WTB posts are ok but don't post the jokes (WTB good moderator, etc.)
    • Replies or clarifications about WTB or WTS should NOT be posted. You can, however, open up a chat with the person asking the questions and suggest they use Egypt Today or chat the original trader.
    • Casual talk should not go on Etrade and should be deleted.
    • Duplicate posts from the same poster, sometimes made in an attempt to spam the board, will be deleted.
    • Multiple WTS, WTB or WTT from same seller made in attempt to spam the board, will not be posted, please make sure all your WTS, WTB or WTT offers are in same post. If the same post is still visible in the channel, it's too soon to repost.
    • Notices of board shutdowns will ideally be posted if there will be an extended period without a mod
    • Examples of announcements: ibis, acro lines, public digs, etc. Questions and conversations, suggest faction chat or Discord General Channel.
