I suggest to put one bulletin board in Luna bank for trading offerts.
I see there is low trade on this server i think this would be good thing.

I'd rather see an auction system in place. There should be many scripts floating around out there, shouldn't be a ton of work to adapt one to our needs here.

Auction system was discussed but if we were to put one in game it would be AOV coded and not a script download. Most scripts don't meet aov standards and are either buggy or lacking. If we did get a script, it would probably just be used as a shell. Also, red wanted to tie the auction into the event system so it runs every so often.

Thats what I'm trying to say, grab a script or three, and use them as an example for our own version. I've seen ones that were tied into the chat system using [auc to access a gump with mini versions of the items for sale, underneath which was a description and current auction price and a countdown timer for when it would end.

Sometimes thats actually harder. I've seen some retardely coded stuff thats just easier to restart from scratch.

That we can do that no problem. Adding an automated system is something we'd like to bring in the future but we won't be able to do it right now.

Red also hit the nail on the head too about using a script as a shell then dumping it cause it's easier to rewrite. Pretty much half of peerless scripts right there!

Another idea is to make a bulletin board at your house/vendor selling your goods (The ones you don't wish to sell for gold that is).
