It might be under internal discussion, but who knows. I do hope they come with a statement soon.
Give us free trade back! We wanna trade with out friends!
I agree. Letās all have free trade, because, well, look at this:
I donāt ever want to have to be the bearer of bad news like that again.

Poor soulsā¦ Reading it makes me sad.
Time to bump this mother.
Thatā¦ that hurts to read. I mean, not because of the grammar, but the fact the Wizard didnāt get a staff that was miles better than their own.
Free trade, IMC. Free the trade from the pay wall D:
I think, at the very, very least, they could implement a need-before-greed rolling system for loot. I know itād be copying numerous other MMOs, but thereās a reason a whole bunch of MMOs use the same idea.

Iām curious what the Korean community thinks of limited trading, especially since they get all the feature before we do. Just wondering if itās a global complaint or just something thatās specific to our community.
If what i have heard is right, then they protested quite heavily before this change was put in place. But i dont have a source on it, but that is what i have heard.
Korean players protested against the removal of trade.
Websites focusing on MMO games also wrote about it.

Cafrisun set, a level 15 set, has decent enough stats that can last you ti lv 100ās as an archer.
So yes, there is some sense in early 1:1 trading.
Letās just say youād like to pass around your āearly leveling gearā.

See? So many people are against this. Surely IMC can come up with a better solution.
Been a while since I read this thread, glad to see itās still around for IMC to ignore.
Just to add something. To the people who say itās not an issue because you can buy a token with silver and seem unable to realize that inflation is going to skyrocket the prices letās have a little comparison.
Guild Wars 2 Gem exchange price was increased by 1450% in a year. And keep in mind that Gems and the inflation was not as fast as it will be here (because of the silver generation AND the playerās hoarding of silver due to a disfunctional market and lack of trade)
A token in Femidian goes for 450k as of now. Following this trend I expect it to stabilize at around 1m silver quite soon. From there it could raise to 14.5m silver in one year, tho i expect it to be much higher as less and less people buy the thing.
(Remember, all of these tokens came with the pack, letās see what happens when people have to actually buy tokens without an early access acting as bait)

Canāt agree enough. People have excess TP and tokens from the Founderās Pack. When those leave circulation, do they expect tokens to remain at around 500k?
Thereās also the issue with the F2P players waiting for the game to be free.
The grand majority of those players have absolutely no intention to pay 18ā¬ for a token, if they did, they would have bought one of the packs.
Once they start farming and buying tokens the demand will be multiplied, but the supply will remain the same, meaning less and less tokens for sale at MUCH higher prices.
Seriously, these issues are just like a slight tremor, the tsunami is about to come.

Yep. I think people are overestimating how easy Tokens will be to acquire in the future.
Hello @STAFF_Ethan @Staff_Julie can you comment on all this? Come on nowā¦ Itās about topicā¦ Everybody is talking bout thisā¦
Thanks for linking that mmo culture article. In that case, they have already explained why direct trading doesnāt exist. Something we have to keep in mind is that itās not likely they would make an exception for our version by enabling direct trade without implementing the same change for the Korean version. Iām sure itās not a āgreedyā move as most of us claim it to be but truly beneficial for the gameās long term economy balance, which is something we donāt think as much about, as players.
