If you are looking to buy or sell things please do not spam the trade button as often times the person you are spamming is in the middle of transfers, banking or writing letters. Whisper your request once and then move on if you do not get a response. If you are asking for people to dig into their pockets and be generous don't pester, again, ask once if you must and then move on.
I know dicing has become a fun part of the game for many. Unfortunately the rolling is extremely annoying when you are merely in the area. Might it work to move the dicing games to the tavern? Please do not take it personally but I do block anyone dicing around me as its hard enough to keep up with chats sometimes.
I try to answer as many questions as I can but I'm sorry when I am in the castle it is mainly to deal with stuff and I can't always respond. I do not ignore to be snobby or disrespectful but just get overwhelmed when whisper bombed.
We all want to enjoy the game and the castle is a great place to meet new people and get information.
Thanks everyone and have fun
