Trade-Posts ingame : How they could look like (with Screenshots)
The idea is to have an extra tab in the social-window, where players can propose their trade. Similar to the trade-channel, but with less spam.
Some players are already starting to create fake parties, and only using the party name for trade-propositions. If this prevail, we're going to get disorganized LFG-List, half filled with trade-fake-parties (like in Diablo 2). That made me think, maybe the developers could implement an extra social-tab for trade-posts, so that those "parties" does not mess with the Public-Party list. This Trade-Post tab can be used as a third way to trade items beside trade-channel and trade-forum: If you open the tab, the proposing player would be shown, so you can message him. (optional including some text and items) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What's the difference to an auctionhouse, many player don't want: - Trading is still personal, not automated. The social aspect is not lost. - Offers are not sorted by price. You also cannot see all trade-posts at the same time. The barter aspect of different offers remains. What's the advantage of having that extra tab for trade-posts: - Player don't need to create fake-parties for trade-propositions. The "public-party" list stays cleaner. - A second way to find ingame trades besides spamming the trade-channel. - Players can leave a trade-post and then continue to play normally. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Photoshopped some images to visualize. Opinions are welcome. Edit: Additional infos, how i would imagine it. The extra-tab would only show a few trading-posts, similar to the list for public parties. You need to be online and can have only one trade-post. More convenient than now, but not too easy. Last edited by Kamosabo on Feb 26, 2013, 12:47:57 PM

I like this, allows you to join a group and have an offer remaining in that window while playing, instead of sitting next to stash all day.
