Trading Post
I would like to see a trading post or a tab in the Bank for players to trade items in a manner similar to what you had in BCwars….if a players wishes to trade an item/bomb/chips or the kitchen sink….then the use this feature...the items or whatever they wish to trade comes out their account till there is a buyer …..they can choose their price and this will prevent peeps overpricing stuff or being cheated out of items or chips transfer etc…...if a players puts an item overpriced then obv so no one will buy it so they can see these dont sell and why fill up trade chat spamming ridiculous prices and disputes they will see the fairly priced items sell quickly and adapt their habits...if not they stay there if no buyer…...to add to that tho it would be nice if they items can show breaks/ and if the item had depreciated in value...why you ask…...it helps the buyer see if there are breaks and if the items was at least new, ….for example a neon poker table new is worth 19cp ….this will depreciate in time , after sitting in vault or on a floor the value depreciates to min 5cp, that's the minimum it will go, or unless unrepairable where you get 3cp well that item is not worth the same value as a new 19cp table….so it gives the buyer the info the item is good and will happy purchase with confidence rather than relying on players to be honest or not and have confidence they are not going to get ripped off….this is the biggest part of the trade problems in my opinion so i feel this is really going to benefit everyone.

This is a great idea. I used the feature all the time in BC Wars. I hope something like this gets implemented. I think it would be a great addition to Casino RPG.

This would be great. However, to extract maximum value from a trading post, as an amendment -- It would be great if when listed in the trading post you could elect to get multiple offers if you choose.
That process would look like:
1) List on trading post -> Can be a package of one or multiple items at once, & select days to list.
2) Select allowing offers.
3) Enter wish list in plaintext.
4) Receive offers (items/chip combos)
5) See one you like, click accept.My only concern with a trading post would be the complications with handling the 5 item transfer limit, as this would now need to be tracked in 2 places, or the trading post could be used to circumvent it.

I will always advocate for full transparency in all things on this game as I feel disceptive practices being used in anyway will destroy trust and participation. However going after Trade chat and how it works atm will only serve to slow the natural progression and stunt creativity.So many other practices need to be looked at such as returning to a CA only crew and abuse of the chat deletion by those that wish to control chat for their own purposes.We are returning to a game where the control and direction of our game will be controlled by the few Not the many...

Wow Feline .. great post and yes, BCWars had it right.
It would be nice to see your idea adopted ... to see "buyer beware" scenarios replaced with buyers making informed decisions.
Trade chatter, slowly dissipating from global, would definitely be a bonus.

I do like this idea! I think it would eliminate so many issues that pop up during trade. Kudos, Feline! Nicely thought out and well written!

i was thinking instead of their being a auction house mainly for exclusives you could add a trading post or market to sell things to each other or buy from each other instead of dumping them things that would mainly come off the truck or fom bomb drops

Trade channel in chat and trade button in "actions". Like in other mmorpg's, a trade system between players would be great. Each side puts items or chips (not cp) and both hit accept when they are done. 1 cp fee per transaction.
