I think that when simple trading is introduced in 1.1 it should be possible to not only trade items but also we should be able to just give items to each other just by clicking on someone's name and then having an option to "give item" in which an assets list then pops up and you can check which items shall be given and a quantity. What are your thoughts on this dust community?

why can't you crib the trade window in EVE with double confirmation check?

A better starting system would be similar to Contracts in Eve.
List the item you want at the price you want (Isk or items). Others can see them and either accept or price their own competitively.

that is not trading. if you send someone something, and receive nothing in return, then you have not traded an item. what you have done is given your item away to that person.
there is a reason why we specifically ask for "Player Trade", and not simply the ability to send people items.
the difference is real |

Please make sure you can't be given items by someone you have blocked.
Your current design doesn't include an "Accept item" dialogue so it would be possible to give someone one of each MLT item just to screw with their fitting screen. Not a terrible fate - I know, but there should definitely be some way of denying an item.
By the way, if you do make an "Accept item" dialogue, again make sure that it doesn't pop up for people you have blocked. Being spammed with "Important message! Do you want to accept this MLT Bolt Pistol?" would actually be worse than having to wade through a couple of MLT items in your fitting screen. |

This terrifies me a little, if there's no failsafe against scamming then the system will basically be dead on arrival, and it'll just make people mad. Either a bunch of Chribba-style middlemen pop up out of nowhere (Which I'm totally willing to do if anybody wants, scout's honor) or nobody trades for fear of getting shafted.

Please no.
Do it just like give ISK.
Why? Because the contact list loads horribly and even freezes some peoples PS3s. There is just honestly nothing enjoyable about the contact list. |

Err, Eve's system works because there's already a marketplace. I'm all for scamming, believe me, but forcing people into getting scammed because that's the only way to feasibly trade with other players is just bad for the user experience. There needs to be SOME kind of failsafe, I mean hell, you can't even chase the other player down and kill them or force them to return the goods like you can in Eve. Once you put up your end of the bargain you're completely at the mercy of the other player. That's just not healthy design.

This is not gonna work, we need to be able to confirm the trade on both ends to ensure both parties recieve their isk/item. If not then this is simply player giving not trading.
This is not suprising coming from ccp. Lack of for thought.

The fact that the skeleton crew is able to even get this together surprises me. Hopefully it dont cost AUR to send things.
I agree that it should NOT be called simple trading. By no attempt at stretching the word is this anything more than gifting and should be titled as such.
The scams that are going to come from this are nuts. New players are never going to have a chance and be scared **** less of using this function.

Two more things added to the Drop Down when selecting a Character.
Right now it is the following:
Show Info Add Contact Block Send Mail Give Money
Add the following: Give Item Trade Item
Give item is exactly as you explained Rat...
You are giving an item of "X" amount to another player.
Trade item is a trade for "X" amount of items for "X" amount of isk, initiated by one player but confirmed by both.
Initiating player offers an item and sets a required price. Trading partner confirms with an "Are you sure?".
Partner receives item, Initiating player receives isk from Partner to complete the trade.
Otherwise the new players will be scammed by vets.
#1 scam will be selling BPC's that are similar in name to BPO's... but that one is another issue altogether.

I have a question... is this a foolish scenario?
Put X amount of dropsuits/weapons/modules on the market for Y amount of isk ( in increments of 1,5,10,25,50 )
That stuff is put in your or your characters "stall"
And wait or advertise for someone to buy it.
Someone buys it and the stuff disappears from your "stall" and you get the isk.
If nobody buys your stuff you lower your price or advertise more.
When buying people search for: Lowest/highest price, character or corp.
Why are you assuming i have or need contacts for selling my stuffs?

The actual solution is quite simple.
Select item -> create contract -> select quantity -> select isk
Every player is allowed one contract on their account at a time.
Once the contract is created.
select player in squad or channel or whatever -> send contract -> person receives and accepts -> isk is removed from wallet and item is given.
Not only does this protect people in trades it also makes it more difficult for people to trade off all of the officer weapons from your alts to your main without using a friend as receiving a contract would be just like a chat invite. You must be online. |

How about this
select player -> give item -> select item -> select quantity.
For item selection just use the same menu that is used for fittings in a box just like the contacts list.
First and foremost is do not use the contacts list. It is absolutely terrible once you have over 20 people on contacts and cleaning your contact list is even more of a pain. |

Trading should be exactly like defiance. Period.
Isk for isk Item for item Or isk for item Or item for isk Or simple one puts up something And others doesn't put anything but both can accept on the trade. So thats like giving or trading for nothing .just cause you want to be cool or have a way of finding new friends, r |

i think the should be an option to ask for a sum of isk as well when trading to avoid ppl scamming for items it should work like this
go to item in assets press X send item to Contact (not player) select qty set isk amount send are you sure yes
then the person get the trade in a mail like form stating
"mr.merc wants to trade 100 balacs ck.0's for 9000 isk. do you accept?" are you sure yes
this way ppl can set the amount to zero if they wish and the person your trading to doesn't need to be online |

This will create a market for middlemen, friends trading stuff they don't want and the ability to send to CEO, who distributes based on need for PC.
Better ways to trade are obviously known. They either depend on both being on the server for handshake, send item claim in email, which requires major backend work, or auction houses which is a huge undertaking.
This simple method allows trading to happen, at all and I would rather spend a part of our resources on other features.

Thats fine just DO NOT use contacts. I am sounding like a broken record right now but I can not express enough how bad it will be for users trying to use the contacts list. This also has the potential to cause more system issues when people are constantly opening their list.
If you dont believe me put 100 people on your contacts, open it, and then go into a match a few times. It can and will bog down your PS3. Off of just a few times through you will see performance reduction much like what happens with too many chat channels. The PS3 simply does not have the ram to handle all of these things. |

Agreed 100%. Simple trading should be simple. Reputable middle men will come forward to satisfy demand. In the mean time, if you don't trust a merc, then don't trade with that merc.

i would ask that you prior'tize player trading, we have been waiting so long and even if you don't see it as a #1 priority, we do.
that being said the forums would be the best place to make a trade public, it won't stop scamming however if you get ripped off you can call the said merc out, however there will still be 100's of tickets flying to archduke (poor archduke) so i would suggest making a disclaimer on both the forums and in-game to only trade with those that you can trust.
me myself, i was hoping for a confirmation window on both players end (merc A sends "I offer you (x)y", merc B sends "i offer (x)y for your (x)y", then confirmation window appears on both players screen listing the details of the trade and both hit x to initiate the trade.)
and what is your stance on posting one's inventory on the forums?

You mention CEOs collecting assets from corp members for PC. Why can't we donate assets to the corp assets? I find it odd that under the assets tab it mentions corp assets but yet we don't have any.
What were the corp assets supposed to be and when can we use the corp assets feature? |

no i don't want a middle man thats nonsence i want to trade MY STUFF for YOUR STUFF and so what if it takes back end work thats what you guys get paid to do BY US. i'd rather you do it right and have to wait for trading then have it half arsed and a weak/broken system it's important that it be a direct trade between two mercs or you're going to have thousands of ppl cry on the forums about getting scammed and ask for you to reverse the trade. we need some sort of way to trade between alts and there need to be a way to confirm the trade is in order before accepting anything less will be a failure and just lead to issues that you will have to go back and fix eg. warbarges the idea was half cooked and now you need to find ways to fix them sames gonna happen with trading it takes less work to do it right the first time even if its a more indepth job. |

If this ideal of what CCP is doing with Simple Trading, can we or are we able to get AUR from this? cause some of the items are AUR uses so do we get ISKs and/or AUR? when Simple Trading comes out. |

One little thing is needed:
- FILTERS -
Even within assets choosing eg. light weapon and sort it to find one... is pain Just simply 'ring', used in Dust, with levels/meta filter can do miracles there.

Inevitable question that follows:
Any consideration toward Corporate Asset Banks in a separate UI..? I mean, don't get me wrong, sending it to the CEO is totally fine except for the fact that the CEO also has his own assets. Will likely just result in (for example) 'ChimeraCore BankAlt' characters being made.
Which, I mean... I guess that's emergent gameplay but... Kinda roughshod.
EDIT: Another thing is that Corporate Asset Banks could have separate Corp Roles that players could access... MEANING MORE ESPIONAGE as players can betray their corps by stealing all the assets
We need this. Soooo much.
Have a suggestion for the Planetary Services Department?

Ugh... Rattati. Log onto eve online, go to jita, and then watch the local chat.
You know what that is? It's called spam. And if the chat channels really do cause lag, don't you think something like that will just make it worse?

This process is good, but it would also be cool, in addition to your idea Rattati, just clicking on a name within a chat channel or end of match screen and selecting "trade items" or "give items" where it takes you to your assets screen and you select and item and that item's quantity to give to the selected player. then giving you a pop up "are you sure" with yes and no answers. and that is the end of that alternate item trading process.
PS: It would be important to have a player name shown in the 'confirmation of trade' screen. This will help players understand if they accidentally clicked the wrong name.
Example in the confirmation window it asks you "Are you sure".
I would add to this message by making the message say "Are you sure 'player name' should receive these items?" |

This simple method allows trading to happen, at all and I would rather spend a part of our resources on other features. Agreed 100%. Simple trading should be simple. Reputable middle men will come forward to satisfy demand. In the mean time, if you don't trust a merc, then don't trade with that merc.
As a middleman, I'd try to simplify pricing by coming up with a straight-forward convention for pricing. My first thoughts on the subject:
I'd probably operate in lots that would make price calculations easy, i.e. stacks of 100. I'd try to buy up a reasonable inventory based on an easy to calculate discount from the normal NPC vendor prices. If the best price players can get for their gear, with Jara and a moderate loyalty rank is about 40% of the NPC vendor prices, I'd probably aim to buy gear from players at 60% and sell it at 80% of NPC vendor value.
So if a proto weapon usually costs 47,220 isk, a stack of 100 would be 4,722,000 from the NPC vendor. So I'd offer to buy stacks for 60%, or 2,833,200 isk, and try to sell them for 3,777,600 isk.
If players wouldn't usually be able to sell that gear for more than about 40%, they'd get an extra 944,000 isk. I'd make about that much, and buyers would get a discount of about that much, compared to buying from the NPC vendors.
I'd try to adjust those percentages (my paying 60% and selling for 80% of NPC price) pretty quickly at first, based on the flow of inventory. Raising the percentages for things I have difficulty keeping in stock, lowering them for items I wind up overstocking. Thoughts? Questions? Alternative proposals?

A real finance and sales person! I think there would be a split in the market. One market would pertain to officer weapons and salvage only items separate from your typical list items like you are proposing. Your services would come with a # day lag. Feel free to be a merchant but my suggestion would be to have a corp perform the trading you are discussing. Then many hands make the exchanges easier.
For officer weapons there are very few stacks of 100. So these will be a buy 2 here and 10 there kind of thing. Considering that people need a reputation, we all better be aware that some people will be scammed. Lets put together some rules to help out players who aren't aware of how this works out.
1. Don't send someone you don't trust isk for an item you haven't seen. If you do that then let me tell you about some Saudi Gold I can get for $100 you just need to mail to a PO Box. I would recommend half up front and half upon receipt. 2. Get some of the isk first! This is the first rule of the oldest profession. 3. If you get ripped off, post it on the forums and be aware some people will be making alts to rip people off. We should start a page of known offenders. 4. GYN sounds like a salesman. We should establish that well known Corps backing a player proposing a sale should be a must. That way the bigger corps can boot the players who are alts and stealing. Like requiring a license to sell stock. 5 Don't cry wolf on someone for their reputation unless you know for a fact you got ripped off. 6. CCP - You need to be ready to ban some accounts if people ripping off other people gets out of hand. Or just take their isk and distribute it. 7. CCP - We also need to be able to see all the alts of any one PSN account. Why not make a page like the corp tracking page to give us that information. I may be ignorant to this already existing.
Please add as needed.

SImple trading in my mind is barter. Just like in borderlands. 4 slots for each player, they fill them or not, when both are satisfied they push accept trade.
Some have luck, some have money, trading is not a crime.

You notice how I haven't replied once to this thread? I made the post to be that I was suggesting an "idea" but really I just wanted some confirmation that I could trade to myself without having to use a middle man or having to use more than one PS3. I just wanted that blue tag, and you did not fail. Thanks.

I wouldn't be willing to operate that way.
With respect to # 1 and 2, people selling me gear have to send the gear to me before I pay them. People buying gear from me have to pay me first. Full payment, not half before/half after delivery.
The reason is simple. If I'm going to stay in business, I can't run around scamming people. If I use any other procedure, some portion of my customers will almost certainly rip me off, which is a cost I'm not willing to bear.
With respect to #3, tracking known scammers doesn't work. As soon as their notoriety becomes an impediment, they create a new scamming account. Just play Eve Online in a major trade hub, and see how long it takes you to learn to ignore the scammers in local chat, instead of making any active effort to counter them, like blocking them or posting their identities somewhere. The other side of that coin is much easier to manage: develop people with good reputations and track records for honoring their financial obligations. Make sure the people who are reputable escrows or trade partners are well known. Its a lot easier than trying to make scammers well known.
With respect to #4, I actually cringed when I read that. I am not a salesman. I'm pretty much the opposite of a salesman.
With respect to #5, 6, and 7, I don't believe CCP is going to lift a finger to stop players from ripping off other players with respect to entirely-in-game items or currency. That's a part of CCP's thing: attracting every budding psychopath out to ruin someone else's day in a game. I'd only expect CCP to enforce a transaction if it could undermine their real world profits, i.e. people trying to scam things that sell for real money outside the game, like game codes. Character sales and exchanges also involve real world money and income for CCP, so they'll enforce/punish in relation to those.

Chribba has a rep in EVE because he follows through. As a result he is among the richest players in EVE.
It's very simple. If you're a scammer you become known.
If you never bone people on a broker job ever you can more or less name your price.
Trade outside the marketplace is reputation-critical.

I would def prefer soul-locked starter boosters than preventing all boosters from being trading. I really think that boosters could end up as the PLEX of Dust.

If I use any other procedure, some portion of my customers will almost certainly rip me off, which is a cost I'm not willing to bear. With respect to #3, tracking known scammers doesn't work. As soon as their notoriety becomes an impediment, they create a new scamming account. Just play Eve Online in a major trade hub, and see how long it takes you to learn to ignore the scammers in local chat, instead of making any active effort to counter them, like blocking them or posting their identities somewhere. The other side of that coin is much easier to manage: develop people with good reputations and track records for honoring their financial obligations. Make sure the people who are reputable escrows or trade partners are well known. Its a lot easier than trying to make scammers well known. With respect to #4, I actually cringed when I read that. I am not a salesman. I'm pretty much the opposite of a salesman. With respect to #5, 6, and 7, I don't believe CCP is going to lift a finger to stop players from ripping off other players with respect to entirely-in-game items or currency. That's a part of CCP's thing: attracting every budding psychopath out to ruin someone else's day in a game. I'd only expect CCP to enforce a transaction if it could undermine their real world profits, i.e. people trying to scam things that sell for real money outside the game, like game codes. Character sales and exchanges also involve real world money and income for CCP, so they'll enforce/punish in relation to those. You had me on "I am not a salesman"; take all of my money.

So let me get this straight...you want people to fork over their items BEFORE you fork over the cash. But when it comes to you forking over items you want the ISK first!? I predict no one trading with you in the future...
Those are precisely the terms on which I've operated the currency exchange between Eve and Dust for more than a year. If you follow that link in my signature line, you can read the entire discussion that led to that procedure, including the circumstances where I considered making an exception.
Just like the currency exchange though, I don't think there are going to be enough people acting as reliable middlemen to be more interested in competing with each other rather than working more like a cooperative. I don't mean that as much in the sense of price collusion as infrequent cooperation, to cover each other's shortages while making price adjustments to avoid shortages. If there aren't enough middlemen, we can't have a robust market. What are the chances of getting better market tools if "simple trading" dies on the table for lack of use?

If I have to track changes in my assets to know what people have sent me, that's going to be a colossal pain in the rear for anyone trying to function as a middleman.

Don't send someone you don't trust isk for an item you haven't seen. If you do that then let me tell you about some Saudi Gold I can get for $100 you just need to mail to a PO Box. I would recommend half up front and half upon receipt. 2. Get some of the isk first! This is the first rule of the oldest profession. 3. If you get ripped off, post it on the forums and be aware some people will be making alts to rip people off. We should start a page of known offenders. 4. GYN sounds like a salesman. We should establish that well known Corps backing a player proposing a sale should be a must. That way the bigger corps can boot the players who are alts and stealing. Like requiring a license to sell stock. 5 Don't cry wolf on someone for their reputation unless you know for a fact you got ripped off. 6. CCP - You need to be ready to ban some accounts if people ripping off other people gets out of hand. Or just take their isk and distribute it. 7. CCP - We also need to be able to see all the alts of any one PSN account. Why not make a page like the corp tracking page to give us that information. I may be ignorant to this already existing.

Guess I am becoming the trade regulator. So EVE has a system where I can track you down and make your life hell after you scam me. Dust is much harder to establish that punishment because I can't follow you after you steal from me.
I have to agree with others that the middle man piece would work for you to get your money, if we trusted you. But you poo poo the idea of us making a list of scammers on the forums. Also you poo poo the corps being required to back you. Just wow dude. You are standing here as the stock broker and saying, we don't really need an FCC or better business bureau. Trust me, I will take your money and items where they need to go. If you plan on making money, expect to put money into the game. If you don't anti up you can't play. I would like to see a district holding corp back the middle man. If we think you are scamming, we roll your district. You have skin in the game just like us. We just take our payment in clone packs. BTW - This is me explaining as a community that trust is going to be hard to establish day 1 if you guys don't put yourselves out there.

If trading involves opening contacts and opening assets (the two slowest pages you can open on your neocom) I can see many people not bothering with low value trades and this will be a shame for new bros. I've got plenty of stuff lying around that I would willingly donate to new players but not if it takes 30+ seconds to send a single consignment to someone. Trades will be limited to officer gear, BPOs and collectibles if the time to make a trade is too long. |

Are you withdrawing it? Do you need additional discussion to understand it as an invitation for scammers to put middlemen out of business?

Every time I visit Jita, Dodixie, Rens, there's a whole new crop of scammers. Do you have any experience with successfully making even a single scammer's life hell? Its a nice idea, but my impression is that scammers use disposable characters. It seems unlikely that you or anyone is going to punish them. However, by all means, make your scammer lists. If you keep even a single newbie from getting scammed, I'll praise your effort as having been totally worth whatever time you spent on it. On the other hand, if you find your efforts seem to be wasted, try to remember that I warned you, and advised you where your efforts could be better spent.
Can we agree that its easier to keep track of a small number of trusted escrows than a large perpetually changing pool of scammers? That's the main point I wanted to make in response to your proposal.

I find it odd that instead of addressing ideas directly, you feel the need to characterize me as a "salesman" or "stock broker" or mischaracterize what I've written. I don't feel the need to insult you in the process of disagreeing with you.
Can you cite an example of an in game corporation (many individuals, as opposed to a single individual with several alts) functioning as a trusted escrow? A "trusted" corporation seems like an opportunity to diffuse responsibility, rather than increasing reliability.
I don't suppose you actually followed the link in my sig, so I'll make it easier. This is the page reviewing the first year of my currency exchange's operation. I'm happy to discuss why I've chosen to operate this way, if you have any questions that aren't addressed in that thread. If you'd like to continue addressing the ideas you've raised (partial payments, scammer lists, corporate backing, and CCP enforcement) I'm happy to do that too.

This is actually one of my biggest headaches in ironing out how im going to move into being a merchant. I have a KB/M, so i can send out customized receipts with ease. But people sending to me, if they have a controller, is going to be hassle to make me a minimum listed receipt with the items and quantities sent.
An auto generate like that would be a major lifesaver. +1 +1 !! lol. |

Eve contracts would prevent scamming far easier. I can easily take advantage of this system.

Without that feature, open advertising and rates won't be possible. If player A and player B both claim to have sent me a stack of x, but there's no way for me to tell which one sent the stack that increased my inventory, I can't have an open advertisement that anyone can accept. Every transfer would require prior eve-mail and delivery before anyone else could send the same item. Otherwise there's no way to tell who to pay.
What if your inventory for x goes up by 100 but both player A and player B claim to have sent you 100 of x? If there's no way to resolve that, the amount of work required to be a middleman will be massive and trade will be slow.
Would the code to automate an evemail (which I get every time someone applies OR WITHDRAWS an application to join my corp...) be at all difficult to implement for trades.. or "simple gifting" if that's more accurate?

Just an FYI - This is going to probably start out between friends and corp mates. I think if it is successful we will find a way to navigate this, lets be humble and happy. Overall this is a great change and we should break the thumbs up for Rattiti on this.
Remember how the last two years we were told this couldn't be done and within 2 months the new CCP has incorporated a sell back feature and now trading which we begged for.
GREAT F***ING JOB NEW CCP! You are spoiling us and we love it. Keep up the good work.
