Shadow Ninjas are hoping to set up a forum similar to W&W's great History of Trading forum, and were wondering if W&W would be willing to grant us permission of the copying of current trades that are posted there, with credit given for every post of course. We just realize that it would be little use to have a Trading History forum without any History, which you guys have got plenty of. We would greatly appreciate it, but would of course understand if you wanted to keep the forum idea only on W&W.
We would love to hear back from you on this. Thank you for your time!
Potato Dathron, Leader of Shadow Ninjas

If Sirinnu grants permission, I know Shadow Ninjas would do their best to improve/enhance it as much as possible, by keeping trades up to date. I would suggest, not as a rule, but just as a courtesy, that our clans could jointly make efforts to keep both histories as up to date as possible.
It's good to see you back over here, btw Dath ;D W&W castle has missed you!

Of course, maybe a monthly check-in to keep both forums updated, or if someone like RE, with dual residency, wanted to keep things updated on both sides, that would be fine with me. We will probably not get this set up for a while anyway, so that gives you all plenty of time to decide on it still, as we've got a full plate in DC and RL in Council currently.

no prob with it on my side dat.
Good ideas are meant to be shared and used!
I'm sure RE can help both clans to keep things uptodate ... (We may extend that mutual help to keep things updated about higest stats items if you also use such thing...)

Hey Dath, good to see you! ;D I think setting up a history of trading at the dojo is a great idea! I don't even see the need for credit for "every post" unless you were going to do that for the new ones too. I sort of like the idea of cross-pollinating, though, to keep both clan's sites up to date. Could this be one of mutual permission then, with credit given by both? EDIT: lol ...ok, nevermind, I guess I'm a little slow on the ball here. Let us know when you get this thing up and running, Dath, I'm sure it'll be awesome!

Not sure how it would work, but you all could make a new thread for each item, just as JTB did on these forums (no need for credit to give for that). To make your history most accurate, just document the time, date, and person who documented the orginal trade (knowing who traded items is also good to know ;D ). It's not *credit* per se, but it does mention who documented the trade. As for trades mentioned by someone like "Keeper of the trades" I would suggest just noting the time and date of the transactions, as he never was a DC trader himself.

What I was going to do was something like list a bunch of trades in replies to each thread, like JTB and Keeper did, with just general credit on the headers like "Trades originally archived at Wizards and Warriors" or something.

A great suggestion, and I'd be glad to help both clans

I like how both forums have grown over the year, and encourage growth of both, and keeping things organized....if you want to take a page from my book
