Well while trading with someone an idea came to my mind. Two different kinds of trading. An *open* Trade and a *closed* Trade. While closed is about the same as our regular trade, open trade is a slight notch different. Instead of both traders plucking their items in the trade window, the *host* would offer a selection of items to the *guest/customer*, connected to the trade window there almost certainly should be a trade channel (which actually can be heard by others at very close vicinity) through which bartering would run.
An example for a closed trade would be:
Night has fallen upon Yliakum two shady figures stand in a dark valley, one looks around nervousily.
\"Do you have the tria?\", the other man said calmly with an evil grin.
The other man replied with timid voice: \"y-yes, now give me the stuff\"
The calm man chuckled grabbed the sack full of money and stuffed some wierd smelling weed into the other man\'s pocket
An example for an open trade would be:
It is high season in Vaalnor, the bazaars are at their bloom, the smell of foreign spice reach your nose, exotic weapons lie side by side with buckets of wood as well as all kind of food. Cyl is sitting with crossed legs on a carpet and nods to the Diaboli lady that seems to be amazed by his selection of local brew.
\"Anything you like, miss?\", Cyl raised an eyebrow motioning to the bottles as well as a selection of strange weed, \"housemade, the liquors are housemade, only the best ingredients in the whole land are put into these, and that all only for fifty tria. And these rare plants ensure a sure sleep and nice dreams, only for twenty tria.\"
The lady sticked out her tounge, \"I am taking this bottle over there, and two of these ... plants, but I am only paying fifty trias for everything.\"
Cyl shook his head, \"sixtyfive! Deal?\"
She nodded, \"Deal!\"
Edit: forgot to make sure what my point is:
- Haveing a second mode of trading for bazaarlike trading
- Haveing a chat window with close vicinity chat connected to trading
