I disagree. I believe hats have an important play in Graal's history: marking certain prizes from certain events, recognizing older players, and exclusive hats.

If you can just trade these, then they really have no value to the player. For example: A gang hat. These should be only and ONLY for the players that have earned it. Not traded and claimed by someone else. Hats mark how long you've been around or what you've accomplished.
Once these have been traded then there really isn't a meaning. (and it did ruin zone tbh.)

Not being rude. But, I don't want hats to head down that path when they've been the way they are for forever now.
