Am I missing something here? Surely the process is:
Trade the mirror for something of equal value (the collateral), so that the person who has the item to be mirrored has the mirror.
Mirror the item
Trade the mirrored item back for the collateral + the fee.

Or are people with mirrorable items not sufficiently rich to have the value of a mirror?

That would be a wise way to do it. Wisdom and discipline, something the masses do not hold.

Are you afraid to lose potential scams or what has you worried such?


You need to stop accusing people of being guilty of what you're advocating against just because they disagree with you. You need to stop that right now. I'm disagreeing with you. Want to accuse me of scamming? Seriously?


To be fair, scamming as a mod would be the perfect cover. I'm on to you!
The solution is to only use mirror services where the provider has a mirror ready to use. Then you just trade your mirror for the mirrored item. Although I suspect that someone with an item worth mirroring wouldn't be so foolish as to destroy his reputation (he could transfer the item to another account but his item would be blacklisted), and lose all the profit from future mirroring. Although, there are some pretty stupid people out there...

You know they will do it, they can create a free account and their posting history is clean. Many but far from everyone are watching the forums enough to be aware of items with a blackened past.

I think ben_sphynx is right that it would be fitting to ask for some deposit for your mirror, slightly less than it is worth. The question then is, as he points out, will people have enough currency stashed to do that? Remember, good rolls comes to all groups that get drops.

i think scamming adds to the fun of the game ... there should be more possibilities

remember this game is a hostile environment between players


Interesting outlook. Imagine yourself in this hostile environment and somebody steels your valuable item...proceeds to laugh about it. What do you do? Stab them in the face of course. Any such retaliation possible here? nope. Silly reply = silly reply lol.
