My ideas:
1. Bypass the 'Private Off' scenario. Players can still have their Private Off, but if someone is buying their items, they can whisper the seller despite their settings. Maybe whispering through the Trading Post starts the message with [Trading Post] or [Sale*.
This will stop the bot spam, but also allow people to buy stuff.
2. Allow the use to buy whatever amount you want to buy. I'm annoyed that if I want to buy only 2 x Ranaar Weed, the sellers won't sell to me because they can't be bothered to move from their location to a bank.
Whats the point off putting up sale, if you're not going to sell it?
3. Allow the trade window to be accessed anywhere, clicking trade will bring up the offer for the buyer to trade the seller, however, the trade offer will tell the seller what type of item they're buying.
For example: Fallen Moon wishes to buy 25x Oak Logs off you.
You click that, opens up the trade window, you can talk to the seller, do everything you can with the trading window now. Just able to trade through 2 banks in the game.
4. Being able to post buy offers on the Trading Post. The concept art has artwork of people posting buy offers, I thought it would be common sense to add that into the final release.
5. A mailbox.
Maybe add in offline buying, but for offers from people that are offline, you send mail to the offliner saying you wish to buy 25 x Oak Logs, or having the money in the mail saying that you bought what you bought. Adds a little more dimension to the system allowing people that don't play 12 hours a day to be able to sell stuff.
6. Last but not least, having a GE pricing system.
I know its a big system job, but having the game determine what price to post something may reduce the hardwork of researching prices people have their stuff up for for you just to decrease it by 5gp to get the best selling price.
These are just my 2 cents. I still feel like Zybez is a better selling platform for player interaction. Ty.
