Lenience in Trade Council voting

I have been getting a lot of complaints about how the trade council votes no on so many trades, and many complainers have noted that there are more trades in rejected than approved/processed. So I will let you decide on this matter.

IMO it needs to be made that the only way a trade can be denied is if it is horrible, if a trade looks remotly close as in its off by anything less than an 82 it should be approved...Were not mentally challanged we dont need a TC to hold our hands and tell us if its a good trade or not.

I could understand being a little more strict with new guys though as some of them arent the best negotiators.

This is very close, keep voting guys....

Also, I forgot to mention this but the result won't be the final decision, merely a factor in a decision made by the admins (we want to see how you feel on the issue, if you are majority no, we'll leave it, if majority abstain, we won't take this into consideration at all, and if majority yes, that will factor into our decision quite a bit).

I don't think the problem is the system itself - it is the narrow mind of thinking. People need to put their own personal opinions about particular players aside, and try and look at it from the 2 GMs perspectives.

I agree completely.

I'm locking this in half an hour.

So the decision is to abstain...

yea....this is such a huge issue!....

The silent majority has spoken, 7 voted to abstain, 6 voted no, meaning 13 either didn't care or like the current system, stop being swayed by the loud minority

No this got voted no/abstain because thats not what most people want...I just want the trade council to be much more lenient, some trades that are perfectly fine are getting denied, its ridiculous. AND their not paying attention, my bills/jets trade is a perfect example...

People just voted because they don't care, but the problem is that the trades are unfair, it has nothing to do the voting system

Sure a lil with the system but majority of the fault falls on the GM's, there is that kind of situation where you have to explain your case, but for me it ususaly works out, and some people are just bad traders..i think we have a good system and TC atm.

This issue is over. The trade council isn't changing. The TC is chosen so that only the most knowledgeable league members vote, and whatever they decide is 75% of the time a correct assesment. I have a strange feeling that you (mksadng) are using this poll to "avenge" the little trades you had that got denied. The complaints are supposed to be posted in the Trade Discussion thread.
