Mules!!
Ha, I said it before you. I have thought about it so please read, here is my idea...

You can give gifts or trade, but only ever once with a player. If player A gifts player B, A can never gift or trade with player B again. Gifts must be under the value of 1 million (money or cost of weapons/item) and trades must all be under the value of 5 million (for both players). Players must have had an account for at least a month before they can send gifts or trade.

So people with mules would get a small advantage, but once you use your mule to pass something to your main account you couldn't do it again. You could reset the mule but then you would have to wait a month and try and wait to get something worth passing. Not a massive advantage and you would need to reset the mule a lot which would cause problems.

My other idea is that you can only gift or trade with players who are more than 500 miles from your current location. Makes it harder to trade with yourself. Would still be possible but much harder. People also tend to want to help people locally.
I prefer the first idea.

Any comments?

Idea 1: No point. Not enough value.
Idea 2: I have a mule and player B has a mule. Player A's 2 sends item/money to either player B's 1 or 2 account. They then sends it to my 1. I reciprocate. Functioning mule system.

Idea 2: I accept you point and withdraw my idea.

Idea 1:
I think it does have value, some possible uses...
A) I wish to aid someone to wants to fight an enemy
B) I I have a load of police maps, med kits, and expresso shots I don't use, I would like to trade these for something useful.
C) An extra dimension to the game. Eg, stronger players demanding tribute, paying someone for a hit on someone else, more player to player interaction

Personally, I don't like the only trade once. For mules it would work, but its not worth it to implement the idea as a whole. The GD would be full of *looking for police maps* threads. If this idea was to be implemented, IMO it would need a different counter mule procedure.

I think we would need a forum for trading stuff.

And people looking for police maps would be fine with me. Got about 10 I'll never use. I would be happy to swap for brens or AR-15s

But who would trade brens for police maps?
I don't think the idea would ever be added...... Not that it's a bad idea, just that it seems like alot of work to add a feature which has such little value (just my opinion)

I like it but you shouldn't be able to trade brens. And I need police maps desperate I never have them, if you want to get to the isle of Wight and other island you need max maps.

Ok... Brens are a bit optimistic, but I would trade for less, I would swap my maps, horse heads, expresso shots for any other loot really. I'm sure there would be people who would want the reverse, and would help solve a problem people have about not having maps.
