 Re: Suggestion: Official Trade Prices
In MineRealms economy, it is necessary that the prices fluctuate, depending on supply and demand.
If set prices were enforced, the whole glowstone thing wouldn't work at all.

 Re: Suggestion: Official Trade Prices
Trading is your own responsibility. If you trade without knowing the prices and get ripped off as a result it's your fault.
In general I am strongly against idiots being protected from their own mistakes, how will they ever learn if they are ever protected?

As others have said, there really aren't "normal prices." Supply/demand and all that. Eetrab wrote: This way, if there is any large deviation from the original price, the seller (most likely ripping off a newbie) can be warned or banned. No. If one player makes an offer, and another accepts it, then it's a valid trade. If you want to buy diamonds for 25 rc each, you likely won't find a seller... but if you do find one, congratulations. If you try selling dirt for 1,000 credits per stack, then don't expect many customers... but if you do find some, congratulations.

 Re: Suggestion: Official Trade Prices
Wasn't there some stone slab buildings in 3.0 with the "ideal prices" on signs? I believe they were positioned on the intelli's tower realm.

No. This is (almost) a completely free economy and needs to remain so.

Wasn't Intelli's tower a newish structure in 4.0 anyway? There might have been something of the sort in one of the private realms near spawn, back when shops were allowed in spawn realms.

 Re: Suggestion: Official Trade Prices
Those "suggested prices" were the prices on the boards set by one of the shops by spawn. The reason why a lot of people used them was because they were conveniently reached with /spawn when you wanted to reference them.
Also, there is pretty close to no chance that any official, or even semi-official prices will be set by staff.
