Safe DayZ trading!

Recommended Posts

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/dayztraders

 

I have set up a group, which once starts filling up, can be used to weed out the good traders.  Once large enough, we should also be able to set up security for trades.  For example, you want a compensator for your mosin, and find someone with it. Trusted members of the group who have succesfully completed trades will log onto the chosen server, find a safe place for the trade to happen, and set up a perimeter.  The people making the trade meet up, trades made, everyone leaves happy. Anyone violating the trade agreements will be killed. To make this a little better, we will eventually have designated runners.  Meaning, if you set up a trade, and one of the people turn out to be hostile, and kill you, they will be killed as well. Then our runners will loot your body, pick up your gear, and meet up with your fresh spawn on the server to return it. Yes, somethings may be ruined, but you will have most of it back. This may take some time to get going, and establish a solid group of good traders, but once it does, I think it will be quite successful.  If interested in joining, add me on steam [bLAM] Smashpaw, and we can talk about getting you in.

which is why, after the group grows, we can have people on as security.  Why is it every gaming community is the same. In leiu of trying something different, they always wanna go straight to the negative and dismiss ideas that might catch and work.  I would have no problem moderating a trade taking place. What else do you really do in Dayz right now.  Get geared up, eat, run around, eat, find food, eat.  Either that or you are killing newspawns, and the occasional geared guy.  I spend most of my time sneaking the hills between kambi and elektro, usually more towards kambi, watching for geared up people, who have no reason to be in a new spawn area other than to KOS.  And besides, its a private group, and communication is private in teh group. meaning the only people who will know about the trade, are the ppl doing it, and the people providing security.

Also a rating system for the traders involved.  So you know a trader with higher reputation is less likely to kill you and take your stuff.
