TNT~ (one)Solution to Clearing up Trade Spam

(I have no idea if anyone's suggested this before)

So, many people like to transfer their creatures by trading to their other accounts, which is fine, but it takes up a lot of space in the 15 newest trades. Especially when someone starts spamming them.

As a solution I suggest when you're creating a new lot, there's a checkmark box that you can check off if your transferring your lot. And if the box is checked, then it doesn't show up in the newest trades.

(Courteous of @spelunker~) When you check it a little box pops up, and you can put in the name of the player/account it is going to. Only they can see it then. If its a reserved "trade" the person you reserve to gets a notification to the lot. This could take care of res'd trade spam too.I feel the box should be optional though, and if you leave it blank, then it just doesn't show up in 15 newest trades.

Sorry if the explanation is vague. Completely open to criticism and questions. ;3

Its sort of been suggested, but this is MUCH more in depth!!! Love it! I would use it! (If I HAD a side! 😃 )

Or maybe have it where you can Actually reserve the trade. Check the box marked "reserve trade", a little box pops up, you put in the name of the player/account it is going to, and only they can see it. If its a reserved "trade" the person you reserve to gets a notification, they are the only ones who can see it, so no spam!

@spelunker That would be nice as well, since it covers both res'd and TNT trades. 😊

Fantastic! Wouldn't have thought of it if I hadn't of read your idea! Great minds work best together, huh? 😃

@spelunker 😃 Added it to the idea if that okay with you.

I don't mind. 😊
But if it doesn't show up, does that mean you have to look up the trade specifically?

"I feel the box should be optional though, and if you leave it blank, then it just doesn't show up in 15 newest trades."

@spelunker Yep, or you could look at a specific person's lots.. It just clears it from "15 newest trades." It should still be visable though.

I've got another idea.
What if there is another box you can check, "accept offers" If you don't check the box AND its a reserved trade, they just click "accept" and don't have to offer anything. Clears up junk eggs that nobody wants.
