TL;DR: for the trading system to be like this.
oyus, the massively HOTS trading system gets ANOTHER remix! :3 but after the massive newbie boom, i doubt that barely anyone will know what the HOTS is. :/
HOTS, or haggle offering trading system, is by far the best trading system, and one of the best ideas on S&I in general, served by master idea craftsman and S&I veteran, frozengaia! (i just spoke in third person. :3)
so, what are we waiting for!? oh yeah, me to write this. then post this... then watch as i get bombarded with supports... :/... maybe. everyone's getting a little bit uppity after seven versions.
so, without thurther ado, whatever that is, prehaps we would be better WITH it, let's get this show on the road!
so, you know in catalog there's trade currency? benieth that would be trade items! :D
you'll be then lead to a funky room wth strobe lights and epileptic fit inducing pikachu shooting missle effects (see EP 038. electric soldier porygon) nah, i'm joking, just a white room with tabs at the bottom with words on them.
click on one of the five tabs to do something! :3
the CHAT tab brings up some chat. great for deals!
the TRADE tab is rarther self explanitory.
the SYSTEM tab is rarther important.
the CREATE tab is the core of the system.
and the EXIT tab is, well... self explanitory.
you want more detail though, meanies.
i'll do exit and chat for now.
CHAT: brings up some chat. like the chat you get before parties. reportable, AND HAS A SCROLL >:D derp.
EXIT: just add an are you sure roblox.
SU, onto trading! click TRADE to bring it up! there are three types of trade.
normal trade: a basic trade. see example.
auction: sell your items. see example .
private trade: a BC only trade that otherwise follows the same roots of a normal trade. see example. derp.
after bringing it up, three tabs with the words of the three types. you get to see all the trades, who is in the room, what items are up for sale. ;3
now this is where it gets complex. HOTS stands for haggle offering trading system, and the haggle/offering bit has quite a bit of emphisis becauss...
EIGHT PEOPLE CAN BE IN A TRADE AT ANEH SINGLE TIEM!
AND THEY CAN HAGGLE! LIKE SCOTTISH LITTLE HAGGLERS!
no, you don't need to be on the system all the time. if you're not on you get a system message.
NBCers can only join servers where the trade isn't offering off sale, limited or BC only items. or private traders. that one's for scam prevention.
BCers can do it all. it's to prevent scamming! >:U
speaking of scamming, if the difference between items is greater than 350, converted into tix if robux and tix items are there via the current TC ratio, or one person doesn't have an item for trading, you can't trade.
to create a trade, click CREATE. select the type of trade, pick the items you want to trade with the stuff bit you'll below, and wholla.
-VERY BASIC TRADING EXAMPLE-
right... idk prices, so just imagine everything costs the same amount of tix.
Tntxeric is the host. he wants a staff of ice, and will give the fire shogun hat for it. it's an open trade.
Frittle quickly joins that trade. he does not have a staff of ice and instead, offers a ice hammer AND 20 tix.
IfourmerI also joins the trade. he offers a staff of ice, but notices that virtual has a noob attack hat. he wants that hat, so he puts it on his want list.
dadomahho joins the trade as well. he’ll give 150 tix for the item.
Tnt goes onto SYSTEM!
he sees the items each trades, and likes IfourmerI’s trade the most. so he uses CANCEL on dadomahho’s and watev’s post. he then LOCKs the trade. no one can join.
however, Tnt isn’t exactly satisfied with IfourmerI’s offer. which is why virtual haggles! the Scottish little CENSORED. joke.
he asks for 25 tix.
IfourmerI is happy and clicks accept. the items are traded.
when you are in any trade the SYSTEM button govens actions.
in system, you can do many things to change trades.
if you are the host, these are your tools of infinite tradeingness:
HAGGLE: haggle. like a hag.
CANCEL: basically the trading equivalent of exile.
LOCK: prevents joining.
UNLOCK: allows joining.
ACCEPT: accept a trade.
SAVE: prevents someone from being cancelled by mistake.
UNSAVE: prevents someone from not being cancelled by mistake.
traders can only uses haggle and cancel.
how haggling works: easy. like the stuff bit, and i call it the stuff bit simply because when you try to look at your items in your my roblox, it says stuff, but you also see the stuff of the person you're about to haggle with.
traders and hosts can trade. you can click what they're offering, you can add some money... etc. the flexibillity of HOTS is what's made it awesome.
well, thats it! enjoy one of the most sucessful ideas on S&I!
this was only possible because of feedback, so give some nao or dai! >:U um... please? |

Just noticed something. I guess I'll just take out the lol of someone. :3. No offence Tnt, I still like trading systems, even if they aren't my own.
But THIS is detailed beyond belief! I could never make it any MORE detailed! :O. That would just be impossible! How could I EVER POSSIBLY make this idea more specific than it is? :3. |

Alt speaking; just had to log off mah main computer.
Anyhoo, I think they can understand the concept of greed and wants.
Also, HOTS has been going way back into june 2009, before you even existed. :D.
I know, that's impossible, as mah main only dates to october 2009, but previous accounts for the win.
Ah well, I guess I can count that as a support, so... thanks.
If you could tell me what you find too complex, I can simplify that for 8.0. |

Oh trust me I m not 10er I made my first account in 09 but I used my real age back then so I was a safe chatter so then I decided to make this account until I was 13 and I wouldn't be safe chatter, but when I turned 13 my account never evolved :( So I kept this account and forgot the pass word to that account but here is the link: http://www.roblox.com/User.aspx?ID=6943299 That was a brief history of me, written by me

Yes, you are. :3.
Anyhoo, my history is slightly less believable.
In 2004, roblox sent a few children, like me, to go out and test roblox. And, it was awesome. When it opened, I made an account. after a lot of losing them though, I finally started keeping my accounts for longer, starting with isolesedkiller11, which got hacked into a safe chatter. So, I made this. >:D.
Isolesedekiller made the first HOTS, pierced eternities will make the last. |
