The system should warn someone when the other one is offering LESS THAN 1000 GOLD (1 plat).
Hehe what do you think? That would prevent people from ectos for gold (not plat) scamming and other scams like that.
We can do another thing:
you have to double-accept a trade if someone closes and opens a trade window again within X seconds.

there is already a protection for when the trade is modified.

That does not help if the person closes the trade window over and over again and then changes the trade.

@ awlove thats not the topic. most ppl try to scam you at first time of trade. when he offers only 70gold instead of 70plat for your 10 ectos.... there would be an info.

This is a rpg. I think if you put cops on every street corner that inhibits the abilty for it to be an rpg. I think Anet has the responsibility to prevent hacks and cheats but I think if someone is too much in a hurry to see what they are actually accepting then they lose out and they learn a lesson. I am not a scammer and don't like it when people scam the newbies but I sort of defend their right to try. (if that makes any sense)
I was a checker at a grocery once a long time ago, and there was no auto scam protection. If someone started doing funky stuff with the cash you stopped the transaction and started fresh. Or called in a manager (ie din't deal with that person)

Well, if you were a checker at a grocery store, I bet you would have preferred scam protection. People DONT ALWAYS NOTICE CHANGES in the offers made in trades like you did. This update will make the game better for everyone trying to sell something valuable. It's a Double Edged Sword, it strikes a blow to scammers and at the same time makes buying and trading more secure.

OR, people could, you know, READ what's in the trade window instead of being ignorant morons...Ignorrance is no excuse to add yet ANOTHER worthless update to the game for...

Lol, this is funny, being in a hurry isn't any where NEAR being ignorant morons. Calling people ignorant and then not being able to spell Ignorance is sure to make you sound like a total genius, actaully give worthwhile posts instead of this crap...

Seriously, if people can't take the time to read what's in the trade window, they deserve to be scammed.
