Want to make sure it's legal and fully documented? I and any other volunteering staff members listed below can provide this service for free! We can make sure everything is done securely via video recording and our 3rd party monitoring/trading system. Full Service includes:- Full Video Recording of trade session- Live Chat Monitoring and Staff Witnessing- Secure Items & Tool Trading via Chest- Payments Collected & transferred through 3rd party (us)- Documentation of Trade for future references Current Volunteer Staff Members:annyonionJoseph01234 pbrassat17 We are currently limited to accepting our service only towards in-game items (such as tools, large quantity stacks of blocks/items, valuable blocks, etc). Depending on the value of items being traded and/or amount of money involved, we may or may not accept services as deemed fit. PM one of us in game (or on the forum) if you have a question on whether or not your trade is worth the time and effort we put into this service. Remember, this is all volunteer work and we are doing more than required as staff to provide this for your own safe trading experience. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Why we do this?We want to prevent trade scams and help as much as possible, which is why we have volunteered to organize this. We are not responsible for what happens before/after the trade, only here to make sure what was agreed upon happens within the session that we are involved in. Please be extra cautious and take your own screenshots (as we won't give you the video evidence, it stays within our own hands) and remember to write contracts for important items such as melon swords and eff 7 tools. How it's done?You and the other party will be tp'd to a designated area we have set up for the trade. Once we have started the video recording, you can lay out the trade agreement in the local chat, though it's best you also have a contract ready and approved as this cannot replace the significance and legality of contracts. The item(s) will then be placed in a donation chest, in which we and the other party will inspect to make sure it's the item that was stated in the agreement. Once that is done, the other party will send me (or which ever staff is volunteering at the time) the appropriate sum of money that was agreed upon. I will then send the payment to the other user, in which case the payment will be completed and transferred and the item ready to be given. This step is to ensure in the video evidence we are recording that both parties transferred and received the correct amount of money. The other party will then gain access to the chest via /cmodify and receive the item(s). Should you ever need the video evidence for filing a complaint, tag the appropriate staff member who handled your trade in your thread. All recorded videos are in our hands for staff-related reasons.

As a gesture of appreciation, any large sums of donations given to us will be named and listed below. We'd like to thank anyone who has donated and/or will in the future to this service and the staff members involved in making this possible. There are currently no top donators. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - How to Contact Us and FAQIf any of the staff members listed above are online, you can pm us in-game or even forum pm us for a scheduled trade event or a question you have for us. Not all staff members are involved in this service currently, so make sure you check the current volunteer staff member's list above. Should you ever need the video evidence for filing a complaint, tag the appropriate staff member who handled your trade in your thread. All recorded videos are in our hands for staff-related reasons. Also we are not responsible for anything that happens after the trading. Make sure to get your trades approved in contracts for further evidence, as we are also not responsible for anything that happens outside of the physical trade. We volunteer mainly to serve the purpose of a secure trade within that time that it happens, to make sure you receive what was agreed upon. During the recording, you are free to re-state the terms and agreement so that we have visual chat evidence of the trade, and to make sure the other party agrees. However, as stated above, we are only here to help moderate the current in-game trading. Anything that happens before and/or after the trade is your own responsibility. Good luck and safe tradings!
Are these positions open strictly for Staff? I would like to help. (Maybe me being Mayor would be a "liability")
Yes I love your enthusiasm! However positions are only open to staff as this is a staff-only operated service. I appreciate the support though <3
We keep the video evidence between staff members on a private video uploading account, that's why... which can then be referred to a staff directly if a complaint is ever filed. Also between us staff if anything ever fishy ever happens, we can communicate with each other and discuss our plans. This is why it's most secure, because it's handled exclusively by volunteer staff members. Thank you for your enthusiasm though! I'm glad to see others who want to help us prevent trade scams. n_n
