    Greetings, beloved ECC.

    Today, I am sharing one of concerns regarding item exchange after a completed auction.

    Many builders, residents and mayors (in fact, all ranks) may not have teleporting capabilities and thus are compelled to exchange goods at or near spawn.

    I spent a good many hours looking into the dealings and interactions between people (like a good mod would even though I am not a mod), and find it disturbing to see so many cases of ripped-off trades after a good auction, by the common troll-factor !!

    I see a lack of safe exchange locations. The old spawn used to have a structure called 'the Spawn-Tower', which was an excellent structure for people to exchange auction winnings and conduct various other business. I would be very happy to build a new and improved version of a tower like that - at my sole expense, and worthy of much praise by all that conduct trade on ECC.

    As many of you already know by now, I am here for ECC first, then TRADE followed by Safety of our players... and I despise grief and trolling - and basically like to lookout for the honest players here on ECC the best that I can.

    I would really like an opportunity to create an extension to spawn (above ground level) which will not add any lag and provide an excellent and safe trading environment and at the same time look aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

    This post is mainly directed at Andrewkm, our great leader, since he is the only one that can approve a worthwhile project such as this one.

    I am a veteran builder and have all the skills and donator mods required for such a build.

    Spawn, at this time (in my opinion) is riddled with obstacles, unwisely placed portals and has a definite lack of a safe trading environment.

    Come and see a 'real-deal spawn build' by taking the Olympia portal (Floor 18 take a Left to Red Section and another Left (it's the 2nd portal, Olympia) - heading straight out of the gate at Olympia about 100 blocks and you will find 'Super Spawn' to your right !!

    Coordinates of this 'Great Vision' are:

    X: -4660
    Y: 69
    Z: -879

    ECC really needs a functional and appealing spawn; one where people can conduct safe trades and feel 'cozy'. The spawn I propose has everything ECC needs for good trading.

    Thanks for reading and come take a look !!!


    All comments are super welcome.

    PS: My spawn has a few challenges as well, which will be a lot of fun for people just trying to 'Play' !!

    So come to Olympia gate and head straight 100 blocks - Spawn is on your right !!

    (Take portal floor 18, head left to 'Red section' - take left...


    Long live ECC

    Such a suggestion has already been done by Newarrior; viewtopic.php?f=14&t=19710

    It was turned down by andrew for the very same reason this will be; It is the sole responsibility of the users of ECC to secure their trades. Adding something like this will put liability into the server, which is dangerous.

    +1 I hope we can make this the new spawn because, frankly, I'm tired of seeing people complain about stolen items during a trade. Andrewkm says we need to be responsible in our trades. This is us being responsible. We are creating a new way to make trades. New spawn= no rip-offs= responsible. Besides, it looks cool. :D The only issue I have is that it would look slightly out of place among all the other spawn shops, because it has a sort of jungle theme.

    Great Idea! one problem :/ I`ve made a post EXACTLY like this :/ The answer will most likely be ... Rejected ECC is big enough or something else :/ Andrew feel that ECC is large enough so this will most likely be rejected but good luck and +1 for this idea
