rejected brokers - stop uu being returned as Untrained

i read a thread awhile back about some guy rejected a broker for uu so the uu went back to the guy who initiated the trade, sat in the open while the fella who rejected the broker "apparently" got a friend to raid him

i propose that if uu brokers are rejected they shouldnt go back as untrained where their vulnerable to raiders, you could argue that the player should be online to train the uu, but if the trade is rejected it really is beyond the players control.

maybe the uu should stay with the "broker" if rejected then the player has the option to confirm the rejection

or the uu go back to the players realm as miners

any thoughts?

sorry for any grammitical or spelling errors, im tired

no it should stay as it is cause it puts a risk to trading

there is a point where it stops becoming a risk and becomes scamming. rejecting a trade just to raid them should be illegal...

I'm going to have to say no, but rejecting the trade then stealing it is pretty much scamming. You gain sombodys trust, trade with them, then they take what they can.

Maybe some names of offenders could slide under the table ;)

Agreed, said persons need massing.


That said..... anything from the broker should be held in some type of protection for 2 days or something if sent back.

I like Tok'ra's idea there, if someone rejects a trade, is should send you a message saying its been rejected, and then you go to the trade broker and accept the rejected trade back, so you can train the UU, just a 24 hour limit after that they auto go back into UU.

I actually agree on that point, one of the very few things(if not only) I have seen from Tok'ra that wasnt trash or spam and it is not only relevent, but somewhat decent.

People tend to see what they want, not what is actualy there.

good idea about confirming rejection, uu staying in broker max 1 dy before droping bak to uu without confirmation good.

uu automatically retrained as miners/spies etc upon rejection confirmation-bad (just farm some naq to retrain)

if they got autoamtically retrained into miners or spies then people could abuse it with huge numbers of uu just to save the money it would cost them to train them normally.
i like the idea of them being held in a kind of "storage" for 24 hrs max or b4 if the player comes on and accepts them back, itd help stop scamm trades that end up in the uu being raided
