Maybe player's can vote to end an auction and if it reaches a certain amount of votes the item and money are returned to their owners  

Sounds reasonable. I have no complaints to this idea.  

or make the minimum bid the half point value of the items original cost,
ex: BAR minimum=100k  

Ok merged  

cute idea

Wonderful philosophy

OK

Good luck to success of this topic^^  

ok

.  

I don't like this idea.
We shouldn't have anything based on where players are recieiving an item cheaper than anywhere else.
Bad bad idea.  

Haha Jester you've said bar for half price three times, edit post.

It's like a black market in the sense that you buy and resell things, and as BBoy said, this is a modern server. If you ask me, a black market is pretty darn modern, isn't it?

It may be modern, but it's not healthy for the server in the slightest x.x
Players will start just buying stuff in this black market, so money only circulates around players :[  

Not really, not everyone will be eager to auction off their best guns so players would still have to work to get those. This will also increase motive to add more guns to the server imo  

If this is what the players what, give it to them. Otherwise, your going to loose more players. But then again, I bet were gaining more everyday... anyways if the "people" ask for a trading system, why not give it to them for now? If it causes trouble, remove it. ez.

Give the people what they want.

Maybe we could make it so VIP members can only host auctions and stefan could bump the cost up to 10k a month. That would bring in more money with VIP subscriptions and players could still auctions things.  

In regards to Jester; **** no to auctionning your guns. HELL NO, never. Period.

Gamelova; I care not what the players want, when it'll damage the server more than do good, it is not wise just to add something so carefreely.

NCJ; The general idea of player auctions is horrible, 10k a month for selling a crapton of items..
people will start buying and selling, making huge profits.. It's not good.

No, then classic should be 10k a month, and sometimes people wont buy the things you want to auction. Let that be free. And some people don't want the self auctions, not shouldn't be included in VIP? I agree with Snake on that.

Snake; of course it will cause problems. Real World Trading. Golden Katana for 5.99$ so that's one issue. Care to give others Snake?
