Thoughts on Player Stalls

[FutureForJames]

Bad idea. I worked hard to get my stalls and what I do or sell with them is my prerogative. Bidding for your own stall every week isn't profitable regardless of whether or not you are the owner when your talking bids in excess of 15k+.

If you really want a stall I suggest you make an offer for one in the trade forum
I agree with colesie, there should be a centralised building of trading where pilgrims can buy/sell their goods.

At no point in this thread, did the thread starter state that he wants a stall in its current form. It is merely a suggestion for how to create a better stall system than the current one.

As for you: put personal interests aside and try to think about what is better for the game rather than just how it will affect you personally.

I did. Didn't you read my suggestion, it was in favour of every entitled gamer being able to have a place of trade in Salem. Iirc stalls are still incomplete and will be changed maybe fundamentally. Most of these threads stem from the desire to have a stall anyways and the ideas or suggestions behind them are nothing new.

To begin more stalls might be needed,something needs to be done so someone cannot hold them forever but to that i do not know.
One addition to stalls might be adding "active" stalls,tables,whatever you wanna call it that you can stand in yourself with your character and place whatever items you have on you and set a price.
Then stalls are still superior due to item numbers/items being sold 24/7 vs smalltime traders that trade in a safe,easy way or whatever.
One problem i can see with the active stalls might be if you get dissconnected/server crashes or whatever, this could be some easy fix as all items returns to your inventory as you may only place whatever you have on you in the "active stall/table"

And players may not stand in a active stall 24/7 due to only being able to place items on you for example

Another problem with active stalls is stall spam all over town, which would result in pathways being obstructed everywhere (I assume they'd have collision). The good thing about the current stalls is that they were placed by the devs in a way that doesnt block ppl from walking around town. But I agree, more people need to be able to trade goods securely in capital towns.

Solution: Auction house/common market.
This has been suggested many times. As it stands now economy is broken.

can be fixed acive "tables/stalls" that cannot be moved?

How do you even get a stall??

[Procne]

That's he problem, practically you can't. All stalls are currently taken, and unless someone abandons his stall or devs add new ones - there is no way to get one. Considering how easy it's to maintain your stall, they are abandoned only when someone stops playing. In theory some stall owners might be willing to sell their stalls for 15-20k silver. Dunno if it happens though
