for once this year there has been a good suggestion, but my opinion is that it aint cool for people without paypal, its hard enough as it is seeing all the amens up on the forums u want thats for paypal, but i think, mabee not sure about this that the majority of active users on this game would have paypal, so i would like to see the go ahead

Precisely. There's no real way we can police who you trade with outside of the site. If you choose to do that, that's your business and your risk. We will NOT get involved in ANY user transactions.

That said, we do plan to allow 2 things in the (possibly near) future:

  1. Selling items for favors
  2. Locking a sale to a specific user for X minutes after posting

Both options should make it simpler and safer to trade high ticket items between users, and if you have to buy in favors, it's probably safer too.

Wouldn't that virtually eliminate the practice of sniping that is the sole purpose many users play and have fun?

I would think sitting on the amens page hitting F5 repeatedly would get old, but that's just my opinion. I would rather work to earn whatever items rather than get lucky on the amens page.

If that's the fun you find in the game, I'm not knocking it, but it's not a "feature" of the game. Therefore adding something that would reduce the occurrence of it isn't a concern to us. That's like saying adding the mail controls ruined the fun of the people who play just to talk shit to other players.

I like both ways but buying in favors seem to be my favorite because, its putting money in the game and problem players don't worry about favors. So when the dupes have to purchase favs to buy things it will be purchased with their primary account and easily traced. Then mu can ban their ass and firesale their shit

Both are awesome ideas, but the 2nd one is quality... that doesnt only eliminate the need of a "real" trading system in this game, but it also makes shit so much smoother... imagine the forums... no crying about sniped shit! (Hopefully..)

About the "Selling items for favors", its a good choice for people who do spend real cash here, although i hope the items wont be too cheap (or even cheap at all, looking at the way people spend their money around here ) or it may very easily cause an unstable economy in this game considering Items are thought of as a currency in this game itself..
