Just stating my opinion on this.

As much I would love a trade system, it just wouldn't work. Rich players could buy out the economy and hold on to their rares to increase the value. Players with more money (in real life) would also have an unfair advantage buying massive amounts of gralats to purchase items to trade. If we added it, people would start to complain about having it and whine for it to be removed. It's happened twice on Era PC, and led to a server reset. Plus, Real World Trading would start to become an issue. It just wouldn't work in Graal.

Maybe player hosted auctions or something would work better, but its probably just best to keep it as is or remove dropping as a whole.

Oh last comment on this thread, because I honestly don't even like how era has turned out or it's community, I don't blame staff for there not being a trade system, that all is in Stephan's hands and he limits how much administrators can add on both era and classic. However, I do not agree with how people are handling things now-a-days. So don't blame staff for no trading system as I know most to all of them want one, blame good ol' Stephy.



*waits*

I can't rep because of spread rep rule :(

Removing dropping should be considered, but then I know a lot of players would like to a trade system. Let's say one person missed a Christmas event in which he/she could've gotten a cool melee, while they had a cool melee from an Easter event. While the other person had the cool Christmas event melee and missed the Easter event. And they wanted to trade meleees? The trade system would securely insure that it would be traded at the same time. No "you drop first" crap.

Revision: Invent a "at the same time" item swap system?

player hosted auctions would be orgasmic

trade by mail in the game without scam ??
i own a bad idea
Electronic gifts system

If any one wants to give a gift to anyone
Just send a gift electronically
(u know the mail in era that it is not useful but should be useful now
Send a gift on the way mail
Or trade by mail in the game

Currently the only way to have mailboxes is either houses or guild houses though. Players could get a free messenger bag or mailbox inside there inventory?

Trading by mailboxes

Allowing players to host there own auctions and remove item dropping would be a great way to go. You wouldn't have to worry about scammers and players have been wanting to host auctions. You'd kill two birds with one stone.

I don't think you understand what an auction is
