*** F.A.O ALL TRADERS (re: trade room revamp) ***
Further to the request recently for a revamp of the trade room (in the form of sub-forum 'shop windows'), I'm pleased to announce that this system will be activated over the next few days
Therefore, I need to know what you'd like your 'shop' to be called? David Brooks has already requested 'The MCRU Store', which is fine, so what would the rest of you like?
Let me know here ASAP, so we can action it! Cheers
Marco.
