I started to do so myself but then I reminded myself the folly in it. Not long after I first started playing I asked myself, why is this good worth that good at that rate? I think many players go through this and the natural tendency people have is to try to figure out some "way" to make trading "right" or "fair" or whatever. This system has become many o' guilds standard for trade through all ages to this day. The earliest post I can find in this regard is from Feb 2013 and is the system of trading as described above 2:1 up 1:1 across 1:2 Down. Then one day someone decided to take the Barter System and make it what they call "THE FAIR TRADE SYSTEM", spoken like a true dictator I'm sure at the time. I personally think they should change it back to any ratio you want and find other ways to deal with cheaters without it coming at the cost of everyone elses game but so be it, it's what we got. This is not to be confused with one form of accepted trading of 2:1 up 1:1 across 1:2 Down, it was simply a measure put in place to prevent abuse and was made I believe back in 2012 and though players were not happy with the change it remained. The first actual change from Inno I believe came when there was a form of account abuse going on regarding pushing and the market and so they implemented a hard ratio between trades, 0.5 - 2. Easy right? Well hold on cuz aint nuthin in life easy. I got a good you want, you got a good I want, we exchange them and go on our happy way. The market here on FoE is a Barter System, that's it, no medium of exchange, no rules. Tl dr end these so called "fair" trade standards and let people trade as they wish. I'm creating this post to be informative in a continued effort to change what has plagued the FoE community since nearly the start.
