I second this idea. Brokering is safer but if the broker is accepted when your not online then its most likely going to get taken away. I think this is a really good idea.
oh and SuperSaiyan i wouldnt post in dark red. Its really hard to see with the black background.

Sounds like all that is needed is better co-ordination between those doing the broker. There still has to be some risk in trading - removing all the risk from the game makes it boring and stale.

I cant believe Im acually gonna say this, but Wolf is right, it would acually take away more from the game then it would add to it. I for one only do trades with people who are ONLINE at that very moment. for the reason of little to no risk, Ive read others that do trades and wait for the other to sign off accept and then steal back what they traded, it would take away a potential stradgey of deception which maybe despiteful and hated, but none the less is a stradgey that should remain in the game.

Its a shame admin cant code it, that if you trade with someone, that when the broker is accepted that person cannot hit you for the rest of the turn, when the turn changes you are back as you where,
As bigger guys and some scammer's really do take advantage of this, they trade with small guy, they accept they hit target back for resources.

This is where trade feedback and knowing your trade partner come into effect. I always wanted a 3 stage broker system myself but to be honest, carefully, reaseached trade with a know trader is the best way to go.
