A lot of people, when i play with them wish they could trade items. It's an on-going sort of question that gets asked a lot; Why don't we have a trade system? The marketplace is nice, but people aren't like me... I like donating. So I don't know if the trickle down economics thing is actually going to work.
It's just a thought though... It wouldn't need to be too fancy, but being able to trade with each other would be nice. But I don't think you should be able to trade gold, if you were to instate the trade system. I think it should be strictly items, and so you would have to force people into using the marketplace for that. (But that's just me)

I can see what you mean, I've always wanted to give my stuff to other people, as I have quite a few extras, that I'll soon probably have to throw away because of lacking space in my inventory...
But I can also see a potential abuse to the system. Let's say a player with 2 computers can log 2 characters at once, then just trades all the stuff from one character to another, rinse and repeat, tadaaah, you get items 2 times as fast as people with one computer. Or 3 or 4 depending on the number of computers.
But then again, not many people have more than one PC (at least I think so) and the game isn't about competition between players, but cooperation, so it wouldn't harm the game much, I think.
It's all up to the devs though.

Na, Trading system would kind of ruin the hard work to do...Because if someone has spare staffs or something, they just give it out for free....

I can see how that is. But even so, people often ask for it. And so far... the game, for pcs seem to work for most people ONLY on IE7. While mine (a mac) CAN use both Safari AND Firefox. So I would have the higher likely hood of doing that trade system. But I can't because my computer wouldn't be able to handle both programs at once on different systems.
@ Gody: And why is that bad? It's the person's choice to give it out, not your own.. If you don't want to use it, then don't use it. I mean... it's that simple, am I right? It's better to have a possibility than not to have one at all I say. I'm cool if they don't want to do that. It's just that it would be nice to be able to trade items.
I kinda think each person needs to put an item in in order to trade so you can't just give. And there should be number limits and everything.
