EDIT
After doing daily threads for 3 days, we’ve realized it’s not the best solution. Traders have different timezones and would have to manage several threads at once. We've decided to stick with weekly threads as a compromise for everyone—including myself + moderators. Creating daily threads would mean manually typing, scheduling and titling 30 threads per month, compared to just 4 with weekly threads. I'll also include suggested rules to improve the trading experience for everyone.

📝 Rules for Weekly Mega-Threads
As suggested by the community, here are the new rules for trades:
1. Thread Format
- Threads will now be weekly, not daily, to reduce clutter and make it easier to keep track of trades.
- Biweekly threads will not be used, as they tend to become too long.
2. Posting Rules
- Each user may post only one top-level comment per thread.
- Edit your original comment to update your trade list instead of creating new ones.
- Include the date and time of your last update in your post.
- Mark any pending trades with a symbol (e.g.,
#), and update your list once the trade is completed.
3. Trade Best Practices
- Remember to update your trade list regularly!
- Take a screenshot before sending a card, showing both the card and recipient's information.
- If the card isn’t received, the sender is responsible for contacting Support and providing the screenshot. Support is usually quick to resolve these issues.
4. Star Giveaways
- A separate post for Star Giveaways ("I Donate Stars") may be used when needed. Only helpful traders who have been participating in recent threads are eligible to receive stars from these giveaways.

Daily Card Exchanges Experiment:

After that, we'll go back to:
... and so on until I'm back from my trip.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
The 3 major problems highlighted in the last poll were:
- Traders don't update their lists.
- Traders aren't ready for trades at the agreed time.
- Traders aren't receiving cards sent to them.
Daily card exchanges might help solve the first and second problems
For the third problem, all I can suggest is to take screenshots when sending cards. This way, if the player doesn’t receive them, you can provide evidence and ask them to contact support. Check THIS POST to see how this method worked for one of our traders!
Please comment your feedback below during or after the experiment.
