It could be that an extreme limit would prevent some of the abuse. If a player was able to send or receive just one item per day (between server resets) it would prevent some things. Probably not all though, unfortunately.

THAT!!!! Right there ... negates my liking the idea.

I'm not clanned, I do not PvP, but boy oh boy did you ever shine a 1m watt spotlight on a way to abuse it!

Sorry witch, I vote no to this idea

Only way I could see it working is the transferred item, gold, pets, whatever appear in receivers backpack on a delayed basis. Maybe after next reset or an hour later. But for most taking the 5 minutes to walk would make more sense to give the item as is present way. Unless of course you can transfer to other players not logged in.

Agree with all of you , ppl will abuse , but still a good idea , how about if we put a limit like 1 or 2 items per day .
i call it "gift box"(i think i heard more about gift box ideas so i like to call it like that ) , you can share ,trade,sell or give 2 items to your friend per day

But this I can go along with. This is a good idea.

I could agree with sending gifts to friends, IF:
1: Mailbox pickup of items in certain locations (to prevent pvp abuses)
2: Limit of number of items per day per friend (to lower the amount of lazy exploitation)
3: Charge a certain amount of gold per gift sent (No delivery person works for free... Lol)

I am against trading using this method, or sending gold directly. The bugs that could arise (gold vanishing, usual trade bugs, etc) would be too much. However, a new command such as /trade friend_name COULD be viable if on faraway parts of same map, similar to the /w command, IF players would like it.

I can definitely see ways that this could be exploited. Madmaniacal1 brought up some good points. I could see players using this as a way to safely send items for clan to use in defense of their base using an alt to send materials and an alt to receive them. Players that craft a lot could do the same thing so it would need strict limitations because of this.
