Just a quick question mate, How do you currently set a broker?
I myself find the id of the person i want to broker and enter it into the box on my broker pg, now your idea means that you find the id of the person that you want to broker go to the ranking pg enter the id in the box provided at the bottom of the pg, there account pops up on the screen and you press the broker button, how would this save any time or make things easier when you want to broker? Answers on a postcard please. ~T~

usualy when im trading they take forever to give me their id so i usallly just go find them in the rankings get their id go back to the broker page and set up a broker.

this wouldd be handy for alliances at war to.

Set broker done? so its intuitive this set broker button then huh, it will automatically know what you need to broker and what you want in return, i've been in alot of wars mate, and the few extra seconds it will take me to do it as it is now won't make too much of a difference, your only reason is if someone needs naq to save there def if there getting massed, its hard enough massing a def as it is these days if 2 players are online now you wanna make it almost impossble. My 2 cents are if it aint broke don't try and fix it.
Edit. And Tabs for the win mate, use these and you don't need to mess around with all this going back in 1 browser. :S

sorry ~thamuz~ just re read your post and see what your getting at. if i had somebodys id i would'nt go looking for them inthe rankings like you suggested i would simple go to the broker page as usual.

they suggestion i'm makin would be more for alliances or ingame friends you know there name and where top find them. sometimes i get msn messages or ingame pms asking for a loan of this a loan of that with an ingame pm you just click the person name go to their home page and click broker easy done. same for alliance mates on msn if you know them wll enough you know their ingame name so if they ask for something you go find them and just click set broker. i'm not asking to get rid of the old way just add a new way.

Yea but adding new things mate that don't really add to your gaming experience in any meaningful way and is added just to make things easier will add precious milliseconds for pg loads. :-D

Not being an ass mate just picking holes in your logic.

ok

i'm on msn, zeek tells me ETL needs 10trllion do i have it? (of corse i do) dont wait for the id just.
click attack, type ETL, click his name.click set broker

if we did'nt have my suggestion i would.
click attack . type his name, click his name, copy the id, click market, click private broker.

mines is short. would that not speed up the game?

Well then its there fault mate, they want the resources, your gonna need to go to the bank pg withdraw the naq put it in the broker boxes anyway your idea might shave off what 2-3 seconds max of what it takes to broker now so i really can't see any reason for this mate, bear in mind that this is only from my point of view others might completely disagree with me but just putting in my input so we can see it from all angles. ;)

If you want to be faster on a broker, and thus have less risk of the naq being out for long periods, just have two to three tabs

First tab on the broker with the ID listed and the second tab on your bank. Fill out the broker, copy the naq amount to the withdrawal section, hit withdraw, then hit broker twice. And viola. Naq out for maybe one second.
