The Officiak Org Swap Shop.

I'm sure that everyone here can understand the potential legal problems that this thread presents, including the potential for fraud and the potential for the trading of copyrighted and illegal copies of games and other software.

As such, it must be made clear that neither totalwar.org, telefragged, nor any of the employees or members thereof are in any way accountable for any trades made as a result of this thread.

In addition, a few points need to be raised. Firstly, this is not an 'official' Org initiative, and it should not be seen as such. We cannot and will not facilitate trades publicly. On the same note, no negotiation or finalisation of deals should take place in this thread.

Posting something along the lines of 'Wanted: product x; Offering: product y' is fine, but any further action should be discussed in private.

Take responsibility for your actions, because it's not our job to do so.

Saved me from typing pretty much the same thing there sapi.

I've got some old games, I'll sift through them and post any interesting ones. But then again postage to Australia would be ridiculous.

sapi took the words right out my mouth.

And with regards to the whole postage costs thing - why not restrict trades to being between you and people on your continent?

And as for people worrying about getting ripped off - the whole thing is built on trust. You lose your game, then everyone loses their trust for that person, and i doubt they'll be getting anymore trades done.

But still....If you say someone didn't give you back your game or give you what you traded for, that person will probably deny it and before you know it there is going to be a flame war

**BlackAxe3001** · 03-28-2007, 03:11

Exactly. (grabs flame thrower)

A good idea no less, but I will have to pass. I mean, I trade computer parts and games all the time with my coworkers and friends, but the anonymity of the internet makes it too easy to scam people.

@Xdeathfire - that wouldnt' happen, because you would not be organising this on the forums and you would not come here to complain if something went wrong...

Gentlemen,

For now, if any member wants to buy/sell/trade a game, please do it through PMs, not on the boards. Until this has been given due consideration by the Admins, we'll keep the issue theoretical.

Any thread discussion of trading pirated games will, of course, result in a very public execution.
