There's a Trade Rep System working on Alpha.  It's something that I want to add to the game, but there's been some concern about it also.  I'm putting this poll out there to see what our patrons think about a system like this.

Here's a screenshot of it to help you see what I'm doing:

Feel free to leave comments also and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: This system is likely going to be scrapped. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback.

I was expecting something else of a trade rep system. More like some sort of overview of how many trades someone made (hard to gather the right data for this, as not all trades might be completed within a short period of time) and if someone didnt hold their end of the deal (although since the CoC states that is a reason to close mailboxes this also seems like a bit of unnecessary info). Maybe it would be nice if the information was only your own trade rep, and kept private.

Thanks for thinking about this. I saw for the first time (in my limited play window) that someone was calling out a bad trader — two people were trying to guess if they’d been interacting with the same bad faith trader and were mentioning names in the chat. I think it’s still worth evaluating a reputation system. The generic “thumbs up” is tried and true but we have also seen the many ways it fails. I wonder if to help address the friction that Lala mentioned above, it might be worth a proper “market”/“broker” system. Say you want to do a standard 4:1, you can go to the broker and list “400 nets” that has a “price” of “100 oj”. Any player could visit the broker and claim/execute that bid by paying the “100 oj”. No more extra steps of waiting for a trade, nor negotiations in a chat. No ambiguity about how to ask, nor the fair price. You put what you’d like and if someone accepts, your bid is good. Trades could also execute while you are away, so no more “IRL I forgot”. This would be mb limited though, but people could put in multiple offers.
