Hi!

We have a few changes regarding our contracts system on ECC to announce here. As many of you already know, contracts and their rules are often far too complex and nitpicky, whether it be their silly legalistic formatting, extended wait times due to small "errors" and dumb rules in general. We've fixed this - It is our goal to make contracts as user-friendly as possible. Please take note of the following changes in this regard-

Formatting for the OP has been changed to a far more simplified and clearer/concise version. Signatures/agreement to a contract no longer need any specific format, aside from an explicit agreement (ie "I agree.")

Contracts using the older format are still acceptable and valid contracts. They will be accepted. Which format you use is 100% optional and up to you.

Rules have also been modified to emphasize the fact that while specific timeframes are necessary in long-term contracts, such as loans or payment plans, they are not needed for short-term immediate contracts (ie I give you a pickaxe in exchange for $100 now).

You can read the new rules and formatting requirements here:
