a trade window would be wonderful .

/trade <playername> , would bring up a window , left side self right side opposite player . where you would have small chest of items that could be added . And both players would have a cancel button if not happy , either player could cancel trade alone . If both players are happy then both players would have to click accept in order for the trade to work(complete) . If accepted items in trade window would be given to perspective players . Both players can see all added items either side . To decide yes or no , after a successful trade a green highlight to the window would be nice , or red for a failed(cancelled) trade .

At any rate something along this line , or create a trade chest that works the same . End bad trades(scams) but would only help on a items based trade of course .

Just a idea , I look forward to reading other people's thoughts on this .

 

Stuff like this is already created
Trade - Bukkit
Sadly though it is not being implemented

 

If I remember correctly it used to be on skyblock... I have vague memory's of this being used at warp grass? I'm not sure why it was removed/ isn't implemented in skyblock though.

 

It seems like it would be harder if a player scammed. Would both items have to be placed in in order for them to trade? Because it doesn't seem that it could log with so many people using it.

 

well that's a shame if they already have it they should bring it back , I played World of Warcraft for almost 10 years and the one thing I like about trading on World of Warcraft was it was secure there was no way to scam someone .

 

the trade window would come up for both players , both players would have to put items in for trading . again much like when I play World of Warcraft that's how it worked , and that was one of the things I liked about trading on World of Warcraft there was no scamming .

 

The thing is this could be used to island farm with no logs of ever finding out who traded the illegal items

 

Exactly

 

How are you so sure there is no logging for it?

 

It used to be implemented for a short while waaay back in the day (I was still a greenbean!), the issue they had was with renamed items, and godded items not registering properly. I'm sure it's probably fixed by now, and if it is, then FULL SUPPORT as it would virtually eliminate scamming.

 

this is a subject that I actually I hadn't thought about cause I'm pretty new to this so as far as illegal items , pretty sure you could code that particular item would not be able to go into the trade window(yes I'm aware of items in kits that can't be traded like sand etc...) , but then again for items that are illegal all they have to do if they were to reimplement the system is to delete all illegal items(in no way am I saying to delete items that are in kits ) that's typically what happens even in World of Warcraft people get upset about it , but the items are still gone . in the end it's all about what the owner of a server wants to do really if it were me I would delete the illegal items . that way the new trade system would cut down on the moderators having to deal with the bad trades(scamming). which is based on what I see Just in the couple hours that I've logged in there's always quite a few scams going on while I'm logged in . so I have no doubt that moderators are pretty busy with just scamming alone / island harassment(destruction). To eliminate scams would only make it easier on mods plus not trading illegal items now is based on the honor system at this point anyway .

 

This is a great idea i use to play a game called Maple Story it a fun game and player can scam because they need to put how much money they want for it then the other player would put the thing they want and trade safely this would stop scammer for scamming people me myself would like this add to see how would it go i thing i might add it to my friends server and see if it good and not i would give feedback /trade xzombiechris or when ur trading something like sand dirt and etc it would say in chat in bold letters XZOMBIECHRIS IS TRADING SOMETHING FOR SAND ANY MOD/ADMIN DO /BAN XZOMBIECHRIS

 

We had the plugin for about 3 days. It has no logging and no way to remove items from being tradeable.

 

That would be exceedingly obnoxious and would never be used on any server if you couldn't turn off the bold messages.

 

50/50 support woth all the details said up there. ^

 

I like this idea. There are cons, but people forget that any idea has cons. Nothing is perfect, and you can't fit everything good for everyone in one little pocket. This fact is often overlooked. It's part of the problem with the current government in the U.S., and it's the reason why politically correctness is so insanely stupid. (my opinion. you don't have to agree with me.) anyway, I support.
