    New Feature Idea - For Trade

    This is just a thought, as I have noticed over the long time I have been playing, that alot of people scam sale Loot Spots, and unfortunately the victim is always hurt in these situations, as all trades are final. Which means there are alot of expensive fish and pink logs or stone for those victims. This type of scam always increases around holidays, and during all the events. So I have a thought, for a added feature for the Trade Section that could remedy this, and it should not be hard for the developers to add.

    Add a option for Loot Spots to adventures. Maybe add a new set of adventure Icons with a LS tag instead of the ribbon in the corner so people know they are loot spots when they buy them, then the way this feature would work is:

    For Buyers - When the Loot spot is purchased, the price that was posted, would be held in the server, until the adventure was completed, and the buyer received their loot!

    For Sellers - They would choose the correct Icon and make their post, when it is sold they would receive notification, when the adventure is completed, and loot sent by server at end of adventure, they would then receive their payment!

    This would make selling and buying of loot spots safer for all players, which would actually help prevent more people from being scammed and quitting! So how about something like this Developers?

    That sounds like a great idea because the way it is now the people that get scammed are at fault for doing an unsecured trade but there is no other way to buy loot spots

    nice idea, but not practical.

    If you are being scammed, thats your own fault. Yes it would be nice to have a safeguard, I.e. mimun sell limit for certain items.

    The impracticality of it is simply that you might as well scam the scammer by forcing him to wait that long before he receives payment. And what about the guy who didnt scam? Or what if the player who bought the lootspot doesn't join?

    Loot Spots were created by players. It isn't a dev inspired plan for TSO to have. Same with adventure blocks.

    Now to end with a good note, your idea is good, but not very well made, thats all. i could easily suggest this but a better idea would of been to make Loot Spots Officially supported. That way Devs would be responsible to make them a game goal.

    I would suggest that you join a guild that doen't sell loot spots but gives them to other members.
    If something can go wrong, it will.
