So I'm sure we've all seen the trades with the deion of;

"STORAGE"

Or,

"DO NOT OFFER"

But isn't that the purpose of the storage feature?
Found at that bar at the bank?

Maybe do something to discourage this?
Because the trades for me, take forever to load at some times, but I'm pretty sure those

"EGG STORAGE", etc trades are the reason the item trades are getting pretty clogged up.


Maybe put a link saying,
"Trades should not be used as your personal storage. Item storage can be found here."

It's kind of a small suggestion, and I'd just like to see if this is a good idea or not.

Support. They do annoy me lots D:< Makes everything hard to load, and if you don't want to hatch your egg, just keep it in your hatchery. They spoil the same in trades, so there isn't really a point in putting them there.

You shouldn't be seeing trades with eggs any more. The ability to add them to trades was removed a few weeks ago.

The ability is most definitely not working then. I still have the option to offer eggs and I still see tons of trades with eggs in them :I

Support. Didn't there used to be a "report trade" button a long time ago? Or maybe I am confusing it with another site. :P But something like that might be useful to alert someone in charge to remove a phony trade.

It would be ideal if we could solve this without the need for a report button - exclude eggs from the trades, limit number of open trades to no more than 5 at once, and start expiring trades that are X days old. I think this would solve just about everything, yes? Any other potential problems you guys can think of?

I would support a trade limit if the number were higher, say, 10. I frequently have 5+ trades, all with offers. And I make sure to take down any that don't get offers within a couple days. Expiring trades are a great idea. I like the exclusion of eggs. They're already excluded from user shops, so it seems like it would be easy to exclude them from trades as well.

Ahh these are really good ideas.

Maybe after 30 days the trade will expire and the items will be returned?
I don't put trades that much, so I'd be fine with 5.
10 might be a bit much since lets say 50 users with 10 trades {and there's probably more ye}
That's already 500 trades, and there's only 5 trades per page. And I'm not sure if I'd have the time {or patience}
to be able to sift through that many pages.

And I notice that the Search Trades button is currently down.
Will it by chance be brought back anytime soon?
