Proposal:
A trade offer remains in the market for 7 days "free of charge". After seven days, the trader will have to pay xx amount of coins per each day to keep his trade or remove it.
Have you Checked the Ideas section for the same idea posted by someone else? Is this idea similar to one that has been previously suggested?
I have checked through the Ideas section as well as used the forum search function and have not seen a similar suggestion.
Reason:
I will borrow screenshot posted by someone else to illustrate the amount of "senseless" and frustrating offers which spam the market.
We all "screamed" when the trade offer cap was introduced and rightly so. We don't want to go back either to any sort of "boundaries' that limit free trade, but we'd want to democratically prevent chaos created by a minority of players with too much time at hand or too little time to think.
Making a player pay a "fine/rent/penalty" for using the market "stand" for longer than x days, will reduce the amount of spam trades.
It takes few minutes to create 10 pages of trade like the ones in the above screenshot. After all, it's just click,click,click.
Normally, a trade will be accepted within 48 hrs and if a trade it's still there more than a week, it most likely will never be accepted. Such trades litter the space and make the market "dirty", hence they need to pay a daily "hygiene" fee.
So, someone who abuses with the trade system will have to think twice about making spam trades because either he will have to take them down one by one and spend time doing it or pay a daily "fee"
Details:
Option A:
A timestamp can be added next to each trade to show how long ago was created.
Option B:
24 hrs before the "tax-free" time expires a notification let's the player know that some of his trades will be "fined" if they remain in the market.
Option C:
provide an option in the settings for a player to let the system to automatically take trades after 7 days
Visual Aids:
not able to produce visual aid
Balance/Abuse Prevention:
Should create no balance or abuse issues, as far as I can tell.
Summary:
Introducing an offer time limit or "tax" to be paid after a certain amount of days for market offers
