    I think there should be a plugin made for easy trading that can prevent scamming. It would work in way such as doing /trade (person) (amount). when both people do that a command should pop out showing what each person is trading and then both can people can do /trade accept or /trade deny. Renamed items by anvils shouldn't be tradable and only legal items should be. This command would be useful and I Hope you can make it possible.

    The command that most resembles this is /auction plugin, which would be too hard to implement as we do not have a real currency to pay for things. Any other trading plugins would be too hard to implement as would crash the server (why worldguard like on .net has not been implemented), meaning noobcrew having to restart everything, making all users island progress and items gone, with everyone being back to a starter island. In all, this would be good, but either too hard, or impossible to code in.

    If you think a trade is shady, just don't trade. Simple. #1 call of a scammer, when you say no deal, they will always lower the cost until you accept, so they still get something.

    So pretty much the old trade plugin we used to have but was removed and has been updated since.

    The /market plugin is a good one.

    Again, that would be too much work for cyp and crew as the prices and values of certain objects fluxuate, (Eg beacons were once 6 diamonds, now are worth 40) to keep on chaning the values for items in the plugin

    You, as the player, decide the price of the item you put in the market

    The only thing I'm worried about is the possibility of trading illegal items. I don't know whether or not that is configurable, though.

    It is a good idea, but then with that set price, there is almost no allowances for auctioning as whoever buys at the set price, gets is, in retrospect

    I don't want to sound like a smart***, but any plugin is configurable with minimal knowledge. I'm sure Cyp or Crew or one of their contacts are good enough at the bukkit api to decompile it and just include an item that would cause an error in the system.

    With that, support on that plugin.

    Its a good idea, although the developers might be able to play around with it to prevent people trading illegal items. I am just wondering, why is dirt trade illegal?

    A server I play on has a fusion between that Market plugin and the auction plugin. Meaning you can put items for sale both for the highest bidder, aswell as a set price.
    f*** if I know, whether or not it's configurable. I don't read the permissions :p
    Because dirt can be farmed from islands, which is illegal.

    Theres been a rise in suggestions for new trade plugins. I think that any new plugin put into the server, especially ones dealing with items needs to be properly tested to work out the bugs and if there is risk of anything going wrong. Because things like dupe glitches are horrible to the server and can give unfair advantages to people. Hopefully theres one out there that will be perfect, otherwise, keep practicing safe trade procedures to minimize risk :)

    Well At least for now before the plugin could be made can there be a new place called /warp trade similar to the one in hellblock? That would be really useful

    I like this idea because we need a way to trade safely because there's never a 100% chance you won't be scammed. Support to the full extent.

    Skybase needs to be fixed up, at the moment. So people need to set up their own trade areas and for non donors, get a donor/mod to help tp people. Unless you are sure the person won't scam you, drop trade with caution.
