IDEANew Type of Trading System
First thread since I joined BasilMarket.
So, I had this new idea when I was trading ZHelms. Many people are selling ZHelms and there are quite a few people who are asking for the SoK (Scissors of Karma). They say that they will sell it to you for around 10mil - 20mil - with you giving them the SoK. However, there are those players who just take the SoK and don't sell it to you (Scammers). Now to the point.
So, basically the trading system would be the same as the regular 'Request Trade' button. However, once you have clicked accept trade and the trade window pops up, you will see two extra slots in the middle. One for each person. Above the slots it will say: 'Special Trading Slots'. And the slots will be outlined in a nice colour that is easily recognizable and noticeable, so players don't get confused. The special slots will allow you to place an UNTRADEABLE item (Yes, untradeable - mind the confusion) in the slot. For example a ZHelm. The slow will also take both types of the Scissors of Karma.
Once both items have been placed in, there will be a 'Confirm' button under your item. Once both players have clicked it the trade system will then automatically SoK the item. The SoKed ZHelm will appear on the SELLER'S side. The BUYER will then enter in the amount of MESOS (e.g 20 million mesos). Both players click trade and you have two happy people.
Well, you may ask: "What happens when both the seller and buyer press accept and the item is SoKed. But then after the seller clicks 'Cancel' at the top?". The trading system will detect this scam attempt and revert the SoK effect. Therefore, returning both players their respected items. With no loss.
Please comment on what you think. It's only a starting spark.

Simpler Version of the System:
Put item into the slots. Put Mesos. Press Accept. System SoKs item and delivers mesos to seller.
It's just a precaution or secondary safety catch.
no they should just make cs items tradeble like kms
I think they should make all SoKable items tradeable once before requiring a pair of scissors. Too bad Nexon would never do that ever.
This should work in theory, But the amount of programming required to perform a mini rollback in the middle of a trade? Thats a tall order considering the really tough time we have mainintg servers on GOOD days
Well, your idea is kind of interesting. Nexon would 'probably' see this as against their rules though, since you're trading an NX item +a few mesos for a non-NX item. It's a pretty good idea though.
nice maybe a bit of refinemennt( idk how)
but yeah I wuold've love that@
