Player trading was absent from the list of token benefits, so it’s safe to say that player trading is enabled by default for everyone!
Edit: Or… possibly nevermind, it might just be disabled for everyone? 
If trading is only enabled got token players,it didnt work on pso2 as it has similar trading system
Also that Math pop up is a great idea. Dragonica/dragon saga had that to prevent bots and it teleports them back to town if they have failed to answer
That made me laugh too much xD-----
Hahahaha!
Dealt with trading being p2p in another game AKA Phantasy star Online 2, and i think it was fine, gears/currency is easy to come by over there anyway.
And atleast in ToS you can buy tokens from other players through the auction, farming silver isn’t too hard in ToS either.
I can only speculate trading being “p2p only” is a measure against “gold sellers”.
However i think trade being p2p in ToS wont do much at all, because if the corrupted players(botters) can afford to sell “gold”, then they can easily buy tokens in market anyway.

PSO2 truly is the god-king of F2P models. I’ve never seen it done so well, and with such financial success, relative to their voluntarily tiny market size.
How? They can’t trade items or currency, and they can only put 1 item up in the market, not to mention they can’t even play later content (the content that matters) cause of mages and archers.
I don’t really care if they make trading for token users or not, I have nothing to trade anyway, I can purchase items I want/grind for the items I want anyway.
Farm silver/items on mobs/sell loot to npc = profit
Buy token(which makes you premium) in auction, Trade with the “gold buyer” which ofcourse that player also needs to be p2p.
Besides, “gold sellers” aren’t necessarily always bot users.
About Token thing in korea all i know it can let you trade item (mostly i think) but money and item that can sell for alot of money too (like gold bar) can not trade even you are token user…(well what done is done…if you want to change this you need alot people (especially who paid founder packs) to support your idea in this one…)
EDIT: nevermind maybe my information is outdate lol just forget it –
Man if they had it like the MapleStory Reboot system, I wouldn’t mind (where no one can trade at all), but instead they limit to players who are willing to pay for membership instead. This isn’t the only membership advantage there is, but man I really hope they don’t make it any worse (for free to play players).
It’s like this subscription isn’t making people better. It’s making free to play players even worse off. Like they just decided to disable trade and put it in the membership option, and like they decided to increase the tax for selling items on the market for F2P players, and also made it so that free to play players can only sell 1 item in the market.
It’s like they had a concept going on already, but then they decided to make some stuff worse then for free to play players while giving subscription payers “average stuff” that’s been seen in free to play models.
So an update on info I found related to trading.
-Trading is available for Token Users.
-Tokens can be sold with silver/funds. (ingame currency).
And someone mentioned how to mess with bots. Here is some unique ways Ive seen games deal with it.
-
Maplestory deals with vaccum hacks by having OFFSCREEN monsters. Basically if you use this hack. Itll suck the monster within screen and reachable by the hacker. Once its killed, itll instantly teleport the monster to the closest city. I know Ragnarok had a jail. Thats what TOS could do, have a key monster when killed would send the botter to a ingame jail.
-
Another solution is an ingame capcha. It actually can be pretty bit obstruction when in battle. But this game basically made it ask a question, and when you do it. You will get a full heal and buff. Itll only do it every 30 minutes to an hour.
-
You can do a similar thing to the captcha but make it so you have to click a key on your numberpad. If you click the wrong key or more then 1 key you get sent to town.
-
Having a pin that randomly generates the keyboard helps a lot too.
-
Disable Ctrl+V
-
Add captchas before the use of megaphones.
please do this… +1 
Who knows though, we don’t actually know what they might do for the token users, we only know what the Korean version did for the token users. Though I have a feeling they might be money-grabby, just like how they were a bit money-grabby when they initially were like “Oh heck with it, we’re just going to do the three-months staggered founder pack even though the poll says that the majority wanted the one-month founder pack”.
Hopefully they’ll actually do something about bots, but as well as enable player to player trading (though I have a feeling this will be most unlikely, and that they’re just going to still disable trade and have bots roam).
Agreed… This is what killed Black Desert Online
Awwwww yeah! Time to DB some boys to death <3 however, no elder branches please!
