Suggestion about market stands

[manolollr]

My English is poor. I hope you understand me.

It's virtually impossible for a newbie to sell in a market stand. Most market stands have a lot of unused slots. I have a suggestion to correct this.

Rather than a player control a whole stand, it's better every player can use any free slot. A player must pay a fee for using an slot, 1% of the price of the product that is being sold (or bulk products), next day the player must pay 2% of selling price, next 4%, 8%, 16%, 32%, 64%, 128%. Past 6 days the player is losing money, so he/she would probably keep using slots 5 days maximum.

What if a player removes the product, then he/she puts the product again and starts paying only 1% fee again? (Do you understand this question? It's hard to formulate for a non-English speaker) This problem have an easy solution. If a player removes a product, he/she must wait 24 hours to use any free slot again.

With this system even a newbie player can sell using in-game market. I think trade forum is a temporal solution, trade system must be in-game.

What do you think?

mmm why not :Q__

that could be an interesting stuff for those stalls wich in JamesTown... are 70% empty
i'm not sure how that idea will broke this "trust" of stand owners who want all for themselves pushing out all other players... however i like the idea ^^

Sounds interesting, although the stall holders wont like it.
Trading should be available to anyone who wants to use it.

I used search. Other users suggested use of slots instead of whole stands. But there isn't suggested use of exponential fee to force rotation of players in market stands. So this is a new idea and this is why I have written a new thread.

Its not new or good. Bump the existing threads with new ideas of the exact same subject because it's alot easier for them to see it in a large thread of ideas instead of spread out everywhere.

Dallane is correct. There is an existing thread for discussion of market stands. We ask players to use existing threads for two primary reasons:

1. It makes it easier on the devs to see all of the relevant discussion when they want to see feedback on a system

2. It makes it easier on the players who wish to stay up with the discussion and provide useful feedback.

Thread closed. I haven't read through this, but if there is different information than is already in the existing thread, I'll be glad to merge them. PM me or report the message.
