[Trades] Open a Market for Blueprints - Paid for with Diamonds instead of Forge Points

[DeletedUser111080]

All players have an excess of blueprints for many Great Buildings. For Great Buildings that the player will not build or level up more, why not offer a Blueprints Market like the Goods Market with trades paid for with Diamonds instead of Forge Points?

Players would be happy because they would be able to trade for that elusive 9th blueprint.

you get a BP and pay with diamonds ?

that is already possible

btw it is not ok that FOE team members are cheating with their ideas and start them directly in the popular section

good point, totally agree

also as a mod, shouldn't they be using the correct format for new ideas, ifs mods aren't using it then its a bit hard to expect normal players to use it

Thanks folks - thread now moved to the main Ideas section. It shouldn't actually be possible (even for mods) to post directly in any Ideas subforum, so we'll check how that might have happened. I'm sure it was done unintentionally

If you should see any misplaced posts in future, in this or any other section of the forum, please report them using the Report function at the bottom left of the post, so that we can move them to the correct location, thank you.

As the guys pointed out, you can already buy BPs with diamonds, even if you set the price lower, this would be yet another way for visa-players to get ahead...
I'd more likely to support something which is useful for every player, let them be old or new, visa or f2p.
The BP market is a good idea, but I'd do it differently, just an example:

• player could choose what he asks for the BP
• the options could be anything even mixed, for example 1kk coins + 100 ferroconcrete

But of course I guess the main problem - according to many - is the abuse, namely this would make it even more easy for multi-accounts to exploit the system.
Personally I think features like this are not the reason why multies exist, nor supporting them, those should be addressed by better filtering. But hey, that's just me.

Yes, I had the same doubts about using diamonds last night. The 200 dimes option is all that is really needed. I like your other options. And could further complicate and restrict it with the BP location (Northeast, Center, Southwest, etc.)
Thanks for your input. Have a super day of FoE.

Also, like the option to buy Forge Points with coins or dimes, add a coins option for blueprints.
