Trading Tab and Public Trade via the Branch Office

[Drakonix-S]

Besides the usual issues for the Trade Tab, I would like to suggest making it such that if the trade is made and the price paid, the transaction happens automatically and immediately. If the trade is withdrawn before any buyer makes the purchase, then the trade agreement was never reached and the trade would be removed, returning the items to the trader. This would make it much fairer on the buyers that agree to meet the demand; rather than it is at present; where resources are taken for upto 8 hours with no guarantee of completion. Illegitimate trades that are made are not fair, allowing the trader to renege on the agreement, meaning a declined transaction and more frustration to players. The automatic process is much neater and removes the need for any aggravation and inconvenience on either side. Trades could remain having the existing timeout and simply be removed if no-one makes the trade, returning the items to the trader.

as under an automatic trade system you could only do 1 trade per post, perhaps the 10 minutes delay should be removed, or reduced to help couter this

How long will a trade offer stand out, and will it be removed if you enter a new offer?

Current posted trade events last for 10 minutes, but trade offers can last for upto 8 hours in the system.
A new post will (should) cancel the old post.
