Actually engage in the community instead of being a friendless hermit hoping for stalls (which are the gayest concept ever) and you might not only avoid things like this happening to you, you could also make valuable friends and allies.
Also avoid the tribe at all costs. They are here for the sole purpose of making everyone elses gaming experience trash to enhance their own. You will never make it to the upper eschalons where the fun is actually had. Enjoy being a worker pleb for your entire tribal career.
And allowing a system where stealing $30 from another player who was trying to support the game developement isn't a terrible concept either?
The 3rd party option can equally be abused and could even turn out worse where the 3rd party gets both the items and the silver and does a runner, stalls might not have been the most ideal solution but at least they were safe to use (a secure trade window would be ideal)
