Title: Marketplace overhaul : Offers should autoupdate
Post by: Panos_ on August 11, 2014, 08:17:31 am
Now, an offer will close after a week, and then you have to put it up again, what I suggest is this.

Either let an offer autoupdate after a week, OR allow us to add for how many weeks an offer can stay up.


Thanks.

...or you could just redo the offer in a time frame of... hmm... around 10 clicks... like 1 second per click... loading times... 3 minutes?

This would save a lot of overhead if you are looking to do multiple trades, but at the same time I'm a bit wary that it'd make it easier to marketplace aboose nubs out of money.

if u want to do one trade  its not that much of a hassle to update it yourself, but if you want to do multiple it is a bit of a pain in the ass

I support the idea. It takes like 1h per week, yet it's really an unnesessary waste of time.

If marketplace is abusable, it should be something else other than the time wasted on making offers that should reduce it.  :)

I think you should have to put some effort into trades when really you're just ripping people off because you have so many looms already that you can use them merely as trade goods

No u. Just take a look at the market. Its full of scam offers and the more looms you have the easier it is to get a bite on one of them

There's a New market rule (http://forum.melee.org/announcements/new-market-rule/) to prevent scamming, so I don't get how that can be a problem.
