Hey, first post on the forum. I flipped through some pages of suggestions and couldnt find any like this. But most likely it has already been suggested.
I would like the trade to be updated, please move it from the chat window and open up a more advanced search filter in the branch office. For those who have played WoW, their trade system is quite simple and very functional.
When it comes to the trade it self I would strongly suggest that the amount of resources should be temporarily taken from the seller, not the buyer. When the buyer accepts the trade it should go through instantly and the trade offer should be removed from the list. If the seller would like to offer several deals of the same amounts, this should appear as multiple trades in the list.
The pro's of a solution like this is obviosly that a trade can stay "online" for a longer period of time and it would be more benefitial for both parts.
