Good idea. I'm all for it.

And Plarium can take a "transaction fee" for being the facilitator.

I would love to see a trading post opened, where unused items can be traded or swapped.  I currently have so many spy protections that are never used, alone with many many other items,  They are sitting there wasted.  It would be great to have an area were we could get different items for items that are NEVER used.

I suspect that most people value the same items (speed boost, total protection, off/def boosts, etc) so an item trading option with other players probably wouldn't be very successful.  It would only be used by alts/bots to transfer items to the main account.

Hi!

All you can do with those items is to sell them for resources. Unfortunately, Plarium is not interested in such a market place where u can trade the items, relics,etc... :-(

Best regards!

Hello :)

This suggestion was discussed with devs for several times and their decision on it remains the same.

They do not want players to take advantage of someone else’s achievements and hard work. This would also create more opportunities for people to abuse the game, for example, by trading in-game goods for real money.

And as BIOHAZARD said, this feature could be heavily abused by players with the alternative account.

Or it could benefits players without AlTs. 

After all there are more players like me who don't have alts in these game compared to those who have alts.

Plarium will never implement any feature that will benifits the players and make the game more fun. 

All introduced features must have ''make Plarium rich fast'' aspect in them. 

Trading post are universal in many MMO, but Plarium refuse to implement these kinds of features. 

While profit motive is quite likely, I think it is also part of their strategy to combat alt abuse.  Hunting down and banning alts takes effort and resources that don't directly translate to profit.  Making it time consuming and less profitable to have alts costs Plarium comparatively little.  

What I would suggest is a black market function that lets you "sell" your items to the black market.  You'd then have credits with the black market that you could use to get items you want.  

Hello.

This kind of information is considered to be the insider one and we don't share it.

We're not asking players to be  "bot/alt cops". From our end we're banning the bots by running automatic check on the servers.

As for the players with the alternative accounts, their activity is prevented by adding different limits to the game.

Also, before adding any new feature, devs always take into account whether it will give any advantages to the bot accounts and players with the alternative accounts. 

so how is master still selling to us all and has been active on here now for over 2 years and still you cant stop him  and its just 1 person ????

the real reson is if it dont make plarium  money then you are not interested in anything we say ???????

Hello.

It's still possible to create another account when the first ones was banned. 

I made a suggestion to adding certain limits to the number of Letters a new player can send to players who are not his friends/League members.

I think that thanks to this limit we will be able to decrease the Master's activity as in the majority of cases, he owns low-level Castles.

Will see what devs will reply on this suggestion.

For now, you can also report Master's accounts to Lord Oberon in private. We still ban the account automatically regularly, but by reporting it to Support or Lord Oberon, this account will be banned faster.

oh well seems like the "powers that be" have made their decision on the suggestion of a useful tool to help players.  Well why not offer us the option to sell them and not just for resources but sapphires so we can buy items that are beneficial and practical to our purpose, for example 4 small wands get you 1 large wand, X amount of something give us 1 medal.  But there needs to be some way of eliminating items we  don't use for something we can use

Hello.

Many players received Wands as a Reward in different in-game Events and not got them for Sapphires.

Also, different Items in the game have different advantages and different value. They can be converted in Resources keeping the balance, but they can't be converted in other Items without breaking the balance.

There is so many balance breaking issues in this game, so to even use the word balance, seems like hypocracy tbh. If you a poor small time or no coiner, its all about balance, but if you a rich player spending a lot, then balance is not a issue. You can't claim balance in a pay to win game, because real world money is the deciding factor.

Hello and welcome to Forum!

I'm sorry to hear you're thinking about selling your account, but it's not allowed by our Policy

I think by balance they mean that two people who spend the same amount should get the same advantages.  Of course with all the different packages available and all the sapphire traps you can run into if you spend without knowing what you're doing that's already not really possible.  

I suspect the "balance" Plarium cares about is making sure players have to all jump through the same hoops to get the more desirable items, regardless of how much you spend.  

The more likely reason we're unlikely to see a trading post is because it would require significant changes to the game without adding much profit for Plarium.  It feels like Stormfall has devolved into a cash grab:  Too many advantages to buy and too little reward for actually being good at the game.

Hello. As was already stated, there are two main reasons why the suggestion on trading won't be implemented in the game.

1. It would create more opportunities for people to abuse the game, for example, by trading in-game goods for real money. It also will give some motivation for players to create alternative accounts and abuse this feature.

2. Many players received this or that Item as a Reward and not for using Sapphires. It won't be fair to allow exchanging of Items on Sapphires in this case. Plus, Items can't be converted in other Items as they all have different advantages and value.

That's my final reply regarding this question.

Well, they never post any numbers of how m any they removed, closed down, or given stats of any sort. They could be doing very minimal for what we know. 

Also they could made a market where trading was done in a way that alts wouldn't really matter. No direct trade btween 2 players. You would have to place your items on the market place for public sales.And never allow for direct sapphire trading between accounts.  

Hello.

> they never post any numbers of how m any they removed, closed down, or given stats of any sort.

This information is not published as even when you report bot account to Support team, they'll not let you know whether it was blocked or not as it's a private information.

Devs know that many players face the issue with the unused Items. On FB they added option to sell Items for Resoures.

Maybe, in the future, before adding this feature to plarium.com, they will review it and update somehow as players with the high levels and upgraded Castles don't need so much Recources. 

A lot of games out there have like "state of the union" adress's to the players where they mention overall how many players been removed due to cheating, bots and so forth without mention WHO or which spesific players that been removed. Its part of the show the players/customers they are actually working on problems that affect them. In regard of Plarium as players we all in the dark, but we see what we see in the game. 

It shouldn't be the players that have to be "bot/alt cops" on behalf of Plarium. You should be sitting on all the backend tools and could figure out this on your own. Base things on players reporting would as well add a lot of "false posetives"
