Vote: Market Section for GK

[Draenin]

Yup. The most that should be discussed are things such as inquiries of the nature of items listed or similar matters.

I've got the agreement form Stefan to open the new market forum. Ibonic implemented it and so we can start. Read the special rules before you use it.

What's up with the rule that we can only advertise once a week and only 10 items per advertisement? I fail to see what there is to be gained by restricting members from using the forum for it's intended purpose.

It's to prevent overflowing the forum by super sellers.

I'm gonna have to agree with Googi. Why can't there be super sellers? Perhaps the 'super sellers' have what you want. Eh, whatever.

We will see how it works, we can elaborate the rules later a bit.

Which wouldn't be a problem if they could put all of their items in one post, except that they can't because they can only put 10 items in a post.

I dont see a reason why they should put all of their items in one post. This market place is made to help players trading their items. It's not made to liquidate their account! And we dont want that it will be abused from people that just want to sell stuff they scammed.

[CidNight1142]

If you allow the selling of mass amounts of items (for example, I generally will have over 10 things to sell, but many of them are scrolls, EA's, GK's, and other lower value items) may actually help in the tracking down of scammers. We know someone just stole a rare item, the next day a person goes on the forums trying to sell that rare item. Voila, a little extra proof as to who your scammer is.

When I said "all their items" I meant "all the items that they're selling".

Except that the current forum rules don't prevent that. Besides, you should want scammers to advertise their stuff on the forums since it makes them easier to catch.

Would be nice if the forum could have a thread which only administration could post in... made to post known scammers.

Might aswell help people, if we can't control it entirely.

I see, okay. Let's test it with ten items for now.

Our main problem is not to check what items a scammer have.
Our main problem is, that people doesn't care about our warnings:

1. Don't give valuable items to someone else and let them "test and hold" it!

2. Always trade on the tables; this is because we have logs to prove the trade actually existed.

3. If you were to "lend" someone else your items, do it only for any other valuable items. If you were to get scammed from this person you would be able to keep their items as replacement.

No it's just that they can't understand the grammar.

I think they can understand it just fine. How about throwing some substance into your argument next time, and not just being an ass [:
