This is perhaps 2 to 3 suggestions and a lot of work but This can Honestly be justified as it would make trading a whole lot smooth, Fast and Easy. and my apologies if one of these is already suggested i will remove them from the list.

1. In the Current Trade System there's literally only one way to Ping that is by accepting the trade and it can only be done by the other person and Not the Trade initiator. Being someone with literal 20 TPM(Trades Per Minute) sometimes its honestly real hard to find out who's done with the trade and who's not, and who's adding more items and who's not (FYI. handful of people prefer to add items one by one like first the flowers and then the plushies and then the drugs)

So my suggestion: Add a Ping Button Somewhere in the Trade page like the below screenshot so the Trader can know when the Trade is ready for Calculation.

Pings could either be in Events or as How Facebook on Web shows Notifications around bottom left of the screen live in real time.

2. The Trade Messages/Chat in the Trade Log. They're Literally Never shown anywhere other than in the Trade Log, being 100% Honest Thats not a good system, since most new players have no idea if it Pings the Trader or not. Well it doesn't. i just can't help but notice the helplessness in that Trade log whenever new players set trade and i'm busy on another trade or away i kind of Find it funny when that happens but it shouldn't be that way. Some players use it to ask if they should add in stuff or not or ask my prices or the trade total

So my suggestion: Disable the Trade Log Chat entirely (or) Link it to Chat so any messages sent there appears in chat. or just a button there to Open chat rather than visiting the trader's Profile and clicking on the chat button etc. you get my idea.

To This. or in different color or add the word Trade Message before the message in chat or something like that.

I think removing the Trade Message and adding a simple chat button would be much much better there

Thats all Folks, R+s are really appreciated Lets get this to the Dev's Attention asap.

Makes sense to me. An option to simplify is needed now simply because it will keep the Torn economy running smoother and more efficiently.

Suggestions make sense and makes the action of trading a lot smoother. It would be nonsensical to ignore the suggestion of a dedicated and experienced player such as ORAN. R+

Are you suggesting there are other worlds where there are people who talk more sense? I'd like to know the coordinates of such an utilitarian utopium.

For sure R+.

This would be incredibly useful. And I also completely understand what you mean about when people add in item classes one by one; it's pretty tricky.

i'm also slightly in awe of the 20 TPM you have
