The Evolution of the Trading System
Dear Era Community,
I've been playing this game since 2012 and would like to applause the development since then. One segment I'm very appreciative of is the development of the trading system.
Back then, players had the option to drop certain items where ever they pleased, typically done during an attempt in trading. Trading in 2013 was a huge market for scams (most popularly scammed was the Shamrock Dagger or Clover). However, despite the risks, many persistently continued to enter this market, only to be scammed later on. Luckily, the admins/developers of the game were quick to spot the issue and orchestrated a method to prevent any more scams.
The problem of scamming led to the introduction of trade tables around late 2014 to 2015 (don't quote me on this), removing the ability to drop any items. This development was massive, and gratitude quickly spread to the those who developed this method of trading. This reduced scams dramatically, but schemes were drawn up in an attempt to profit off traders through new scams. Admins quickly took action and developed a message that you were presented with once you entered the trading house. This message made traders much more aware of how to not only protect their items but their accounts as well. From 2016 onwards, scams are exceedingly rare, and those who still attempt to practice it, barely ever pull those schemes off.
Much of my gratitude is to the hard work of those who continuously develop this game into something more safe and enjoyable!
What have other developments done to massively improved the game in your user's opinions? Comment below!
Thank you,
admins/developers!
