Expiring Trades. Suggestion

When a trade expires all the stuff you traded gets put in the open for anyone to attack. I think it would be good to have the thing like when someone declines your trade you can click the 'accept goods back' thing, and have 24hrs to do it for when your trade expires, instead of it being thrown out in the open and all your stuff being lost due to the other person not accepting or declining your trade, pretty stupid system at the moment.

What do you guys think about it?

Re: Expiring Trades. Suggestion

i think not cause if u do that u can protect your resources for another 24 h, then i would send around naq when my bank would be full and save some extra??

I just think that it would be better if trade will last for 12 hours and another 12 for accept goods if the trade wasnt completed

Re: Expiring Trades. Suggestion

I thought this was already in place, if a trade expires/ gets rejected does the person not have 12 hours to accept the goods back,

Im near sure this was put in place to stop the old, sure trade me x UU for x Naq and the person rejecting it then farming it.
Deep within Noob Cave, you find a strange pool filled with a glowing blue liquid. You think back to what your mother told you about unfamiliar liquids found in caves.

You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

Re: Expiring Trades. Suggestion

Yer but only for rejections... not when it expires. It should be for both.

My suggestion is that you don't make trades with people you don't know/trust, or who can't be relied upon to login frequently enough. I'd say 12 hours is ample time.
