    Every time when I want to give somebody materials for EcoDollars, I hate trying to get them to me. So my idea is to make a menu to trade. Type /trade (other player's name) and a menu will pop up with a line separating both halfs of the menu. The 2 people who are trading will left click on the item or items they want to trade. The items will then go on one of the half of the menu and the person who is trading that item will have their name on the half of the menu or item. Maybe their head will be there. When they are ready to trade, they will click on a piece of red glass that will turn green on their half of the menu so both players have to hit the red glass. To cancel the trade, the people just have to hit the escape button on their keyboard and they will get their items back. To trade money, do /withdraw (amount of money) and a piece of paper will appear with the person's name and money. To get the money on the paper, just right click on it. With this withdraw idea, you could trade money with my idea above. In the chat there should be this when somebody wants to trade, (example) wants to trade with you! AcceptOrDeny. Click accept or deny to answer. Accept is green and deny is red. This could be like a robot pm message. I also hate when people run into you and pick up the items you are trading to another player. If you deny my idea, please include the idea about the /withdraw (amount of money). Only the 2 traders can see the trade menu. By the way, you have to pay real money to teleport. Thank you.

    I doubt anyone on the development team will have the patience or motivation to write a plugin or implement an existing plugin for something that isn't really needed.

    I also dislike when people run through your trading if you are at spawn or a warp. They run through you and pick up your materials.

    Ive seen it on another server and it is a great way to prevent scamming, everyone puts their stuff into the trade grid and you can see what the other is putting up.
    I always have that nervousness of going first and im sure others do when maybe getting a erep or trading good for ecd.
    At least here you dont have to throw anything on the ground, dont have to move from your current location and safer.

    Though good ideas never seem to get implemented here

    +1 but it'll never happen cause of effort

    First of all, you have to pay real money to teleport.

    We have much more important projects right now. Maybe in the extreme future. No guarantees

    Yeah. And if you implement this, the use of this feature will decrease. It makes it unfair to the ones who bought it. I like the realism of trading on this server. Yes, you can get scammed, but that's part of it. You can always report if you wish.

    I hope to see this in the future. It's a great idea! +1

    1) Will make trading easier. It can be a pain to find someone to do a tp when both parties trading don't have the feature.

    2) Will reduce scamming related to item trades. No more worries about paying, but not receiving the item, simply cancel and move on to someone else without losing anything.

    3) Could be a safer method for repairs. How many times has a tool despawned when trading for repairs! Sure, a chest is safe enough, but when the town has a flag, it can become a hassle and hinder someone from getting their items repaired and better yet, neither player need the hassle of looking for a tp!

    Many good reason to add this when possible. Nice suggestion. :)

    Like said, I personally like ECC for not having this addon. So much other servers already have it. Why make ECC like those boring, annoying servers? I don't see why standardization of ECC is good...

    The best thing about this is that you're not forced to use it! So don't use it if you don't want to...
