Trade Cops

How about a new Group, (official (made by stefan)) called the Trade Police.

Their Job

To over see trades and sort out scamming problems

------------------------

Their Powers

Not sure, jailing would be usefull for scammers, but then they would be to much like police... Mabey item and Gralat taking, for if somone scams items from someone.. but then they would need to be very trust worthy..

------------------------

How Many

Quite a few, there should be at least one on at a time.

------------------------

Why Bother?

To take the strain of "WAAAAA SOMEONE TOOK MY HAT AND DIDNT PAY ME!!!" off of the regular police and stefan.

------------------------

Please Give your imput, good or bad idea?

Nastazio: I see why you would feel better in having a person with a tag (Trade Police) but it simpley would just be to much of a waste. Police need to do their jobs to supervise the saftey and well-being of the graalinian community. Don't get me wrong here, Trade Police would be fun, but alot of things could go wrong, like them not supervising things even though it is their jobs. People would wan't the tag just to be "Staff." Police should just do their jobs instead of having a whole new division added.

I watch trades all the time.. I just hate watching the trades where the one person intended on scamming the other, and then runs out.. and then the guy tells me to come back like 5 times but the other guy keeps running out.. It's annoying and wastes my time.

The only reason I ignore watching someones trade is because either I am too busy with cheaters mainly in the market.. or I am too busy telling someone I can't help them because they traded a hat for 500 gralat and the guy scammed them and ran off.. So in one pm I hear "Help watch this trade" and the other ear I hear "IM GONNA GIT U FIREAD U WONT DO NETHING ABOTU THSI SCAMMAR!! > >"
