As you will be aware at the moment there is a system for gifting olives to another account; however, there is no provided facility for the trade of items for olives between different accounts. We are now working on introducing a system that will facilitate the trading of some items from one account in return for olives from another. In the meantime the previous policy whereby we said it was not illegal to trade items for gifted olives, but we would not condone it or support it if it went wrong, has been the subject of debate and a new policy has been formulated:
With immediate effect (from the date/time of this posting) the trade of olives for items in-game (including any individual item but also an account of items) is prohibited where there is not a SDE provided system that facilitates the secure and instant trade of the items involved for the return of olives.
There will not be any exceptions to this rule.
Official details on new trading system:
How it works
1) Seller pays 1 olive for a registration fee and may post the listing.
2) Maximum numbers of tradable sailors are 10 at once.
3) Listing will be valid for 7 days. If trade is not made within 7 days, listing will be removed.
4) Olive will be used as currency for all trades.
5) When buyers click to purchase the sailors, the status will be changed to “pending”.
6) GMs will check all the details and manually move the sailors.
7) After trade is completed, olives will be paid to seller.
8) There will be an additional 10 olive selling fee.
(If buyers have insufficient amount of olives, trade cannot be made.)
9) All trades are final. We are not responsible for any loss due to sharing account information.
10) Trade spamming restrictions will be applied in battle rooms.
**These changes will be applied after tonight's maintenance.
