Better Trading System

There should be a way to only trade EC or CC for a creature. Doesn't that make so much sense? Instead of trading EC with a common creature that keeps getting tossed around, shouldn't there be a way to trade only EC for a creature? I think it would be very useful.

@degong I agree completely. I don't see why we NEED to have at least one creature. People can see your trade before they accept it.

@degong

I definitely agree. That is much more useful and it makes way more sense.

@bgunny

I agree too. Specialy when I'm moving to side, I usually don't have any spare eggs and you can't go to the cave, adoption center is empty and no common in trades...you're stuck.

And after you do trade, you're left with a bunch of unneeded commons.

@degong

AGREE TOTALLY. And what if someone beats your offer on something? Then what do U do with the cave common that U just adopted from the cave to offer on the lot? 😱

@degong Agreed! Being able to trade with only EC would be amazing 😃

@degong

Definitely! Sometimes, you trade only for the EC and you don't need the common. Like, I don't want to have to be stuck with an unneeded common or pay the abandonment fee.

@degong

But then it's not really /trading/ is it?

Trading currency for an object is called purchasing.

It's more like the auction without a time limit, with the possible bias of only selling to your friends(if the trade is open).

I would definitely be on board with this, but seriously doubt it would be implemented.

@degong
110% agree. I've been playing eggcave (admittedly, off and on) sense '09 and I've wanted this for a long time. As well as just generally transferring items/creatures/currency, even if it's just between side accounts.

I just wish we had an easier transfer system where we didn't have to make lots every time we want to move creatures. Maybe some way to connect accounts? One site I play has that, and it's absolutely a godsend.

I agree, too, @degong! I've always traded GROUPS of creatures/eggs for one in hopes of less creatures. If we could not have to trade a creature that would be awesome!
