Post subject:  Suggestion: LFG Protocol for Search function going down
Search has been going down pretty often lately during prime time and stays down for several hours when it does. This means a few things:

- Can't use AH which means you can't buy or sell on it
- Can't search zones to see if camps are available
- Can't see who is LFG if you're making a party

AH and zone searches, there's not much that can be done. Anything you're selling on the AH is locked there so you can't pull it down and bazaar it instead. Would be nice since Bazaar browser is still accessible. And Searchign zones, I guess you can try to get word out to your LSes where you're camping. Its an effort but might not go very far. However, there is something that can be done for being lfg for parties besides shouting in town.

Its been happening pretty frequently lately so we can expect it to happen again, so here's what i'm thinking:

Put up LFG flag and based on your level...
LV.10-20 = Gather @ Valkurm OP
Lv.20-24 = Gather @ Qufim OP
Lv.25-32 = Gather @ Yuhtunga OP
Lv.32-36 = Gather @ Zi'Tah OP
Lv.37-50 = Gather @ Passhow OP
Lv.50-56 = Gather @ Ronfaure OP
Lv.57-60 = Gather @ Cape Terrigan OP
Lv.61-75 = Gather @ Buburimu OP

Albeit, its not great, but its a suggestion. This way people can still get parties and not have to worry much about search till its back up.

Flag up and use the party finder link on the website. Learn to live without sync and try smaller exp parties.

Totally agree with the tree, but already set Zi'tah for another level range. Not a big deal to meet up in Bubu and go back to the tree.... HOWEVER!... I had no idea about the party finder haha... which invalidates this entire protocol :D

One more thing to add for those that don't know...if "/pcmd add" doesn't work you should still be able to flag up and invite from the target menu.

Also, can't use Yuhtunga for level 25 because you need the airship pass to get there and new players can't be expected to already have that by the time they hit 25.
