MineZ Trading Server:

What is the MineZ Trading Server?

The MineZ Trading Server would be a massive server with one-hundred slots to revolutionize as we know it. When MineZ started it was all about the game-play and exploring, although if you looked deeper you saw more, in fact a whole community which was dedicated to obtain goods and sell it off for the items they wanted. As MineZ grew so did trading and more and more people started to sell items to friends or randoms they found on Reddit, trading rare items like pumpkins to extreme items like daylight detectors. Now days trading is about 50% of MineZ and the Reddit, everyone is looking for a good deal but this is sometimes hard for various reasons like: PVP if you trade on a PVP enabled server or PVE people say “Give me your item first then they log-out.”





Now Imagine, how many times people trade over a span of a week? I’m guessing it is a lot, now how many of those people can you trust? Most of the time it is hard to trust a beginner in trading because you may think they are going to scam you or kill you for all your items. The MineZ Trading Server would reduce those chances of getting scam to 0% with a well designed plugin, you would have an easier time to find the items you want with a dedicated server with other traders old and new. Who knows, events may be more popular to people to make a good offer in the trading world as we start to see now.





How would the MineZ Trading Server work?

The MineZ Trading Server would be a server, one for each region solely dedicated to trading. Within the server you would obtain a book called the “Trading Log” this trading log would be essential to start trades with other players risk free without the need to worry about trusting the other player. The server would have one-hundred slots to hold a vast community of players throughout the trading community, each logging in with a “How to trade” and “Trading Log” book to start finding the trade they want. Inside the How to trade book there would be rules stating:

How to trade with other players.



On the other hand we would have the “Trading Log” this book as I mentioned before, it would be the trading device to trade with other players for example:

Left click: Engage player, sending a request to trade. Message would show in chat saying “Starting trade with [Name]” or for the person being asked “[Name] wants to trade, to accept type /accept to decline type /decline” Right Click: Open up inventory (not current one, your MineZ inventory) to have a look at what you have on offer. GUI: During the stage of trading you would have a GUI pop up which resembles a chest; inside the GUI there would be four items red wool, green wool and two paper all representing different features for example: Red wool: Represents the “Decline Button” to decline the offer made. Green wool: Represents the “Accept Button” to accept the offer made. (Note: if you press the accept button and the offer is changed the trade is canceled.) The two papers: Represents the offers made, one would be called “Your Offer/s” and the other being “There Offer/s”. (Note: these would be on the two top left hand columns, one on each row.) Other notes: You can’t take off other peoples offered items on display. Your current inventory would change to your MineZ inventory during a trade.



Why would this be good?

The MineZ Trading Server would be great to expand the trading community and to make wave events more popular. Expanding the trading community would give the incentive for people to gathered rares to sell to each other to make the game funnier and to get the items they want. Wave events would also increase in popularity because everyone wants that golden prize from the admins because it would be worth a lot in the trading world (like they already are.) Overall I think it is a great Idea, the MineZ Trading Server would be great for traders old and new or even just casual players from around the world.

Things required to make this server realty/ pros and cons.

Pro/Cons

Pros: Easier trading, people won’t get ripped off, MineZ Reddit wouldn't be cluttered with trading requests, Trading wouldn't be risky, Non-donators can trade with reliability too.

Cons: Complex plugin, another three servers to pay for,

Things required to make this server reality would be a good developer *cough cough lazertester cough* to make the plugin and of course this is the big commitment the server itself, although if the server was not feasible you could also have it actually inside the MineZ lobby but that would make it more fiddly.

Thanks for listening, this took me a long time to type but I still am not sure if the point is clear so I will be adding pictures ASAP.

P.S Suggestions would be great, feel free to suggest.

P.P.S I thought this was a good idea, although the idea itself could be horrible I understand the fact that the trading community has grown rapidly.

P.P.P.S Admins I am not saying, you HAVE TO do this or dshfhebfjrahbfydtfnmdcn, I just am suggesting an idea that may benefit the trading community.
