Just had to bring this back up , the story of why we cant trade

Sadly, Zone is so far in the future (Way beyond the measly 1800s) that we outlawed trading on account of the fact that we can instantaneously spawn these weapons and their ammunitions. Based on the past history of vicious permanent murders over "unfair" trades, the Zone government felt it necessary to provide no ability for its people to trade. Especially when certain beings are able to instantaneously spawn these weapons.

Along with this the Zone government also created weapons that were not trade-able so individual citizens could be recognized for their extreme skill and prowess. These weapons were sheer awesome in power and are unable to be transferred without removing the very essence, the soul, of the weapon that makes it permanent. For that "soul" of the weapon to be removed, the Zone diety's, the almighty Stefan and Zone's trickster patron and oracle, Supernanny, are the only beings capable of removing such ferociously awesome power.

Stefan, following Supernanny's judgement (Clouded as it may be), is not willing to tamper with the very laws of the universe, the NPC-server out of fear of the results. And that is why Zone does not have a trading system.

Also, Supernanny's inherently misguided beliefs were reason to believe that the very discussion of a trading system is not necessary for Zone. For that very discussion is a topic that will never be implemented due to the dangerous effects of tampering with the NPC-server's will. Therefore there will be no further discussion of a Zone trading system.

Zone doesn't need an economy and should never have one.

hard to comment.

i would say the day zone has a trading system/economy is the day it loses its everyone has a fair chance appeal.

but it seems to have lost all appeal now anyway.

i dont think zones ever coming back, unless izone is a hit.

yeah if i remember rightly it was an utter fail.

im thinking more for facebook zone, however i dont think they would invest time putting zone to facebook when its averaging 0 players a day.

iirc it was pretty popular but was removed due to some violation of Apple's terms?

I'm pretty sure this is the case. Not sure where it stands now, I feel iZone could work very well on the iOS market...

Zone was the first iGraal application, I do not know why it was taken down but the thing was horrible and had no development on it.

They're remaking iZone and making it one entire server (Facebook, Client, iDevice) but from what our previous awesome manager has said, development on it is in hell currently. My opinion though, he's full of ****.

This is some serious old news people x.x

also, the only oracle Zone has is Huwajux. SN can go rot in a ditch. Forum PM now SN, I dare you!
