Most that didn't work before have recently been fixed.
The thing with spaces - use a + sign where the space is.

A description of how commands work is here and in Game Manual, including the necessity of using a + instead of the space :)

As of last night I have 10m reasons to agree with Humble_M's idea:
Humble_M wrote:Rather than pop-up the sell notice, it should get sent as a message. The recipient can then view when time is better. The message would include accept or reject options. If reject is chosen, then it follows the suggestion.

This serves 2 purposes: way to cut down/eliminate spam selling AND way to kill (pun intended) spam selling with attempt to kill a player (who must respond or lose a battle they can't see!)
trying to get away from the person I started to tap the screen to move down - pop-up "spam Sell" I hit the green check mark!
I'll fight for what I think is right!

I wasn't claiming a bug, I just didn't know of the updated commands. Thanks for your wonderful feedback *Sarcastic giggle* :shock:

I'm glad to hear it! Your "Commands don't work when a player has spaces in their name" sounded a bug report, it's nice to know it wasn't meant as such ;)

Any command (theoretically) could be used to toggle sales. Comp just has to implement them (I'm not sure how hard that is). A command to disable trades on your account (whether until logout or until you toggle it back on [like the /filter command]) would be welcomed by many, I think.
