Trading sucks.

It either means drop rates are incredibly low, because otherwise the market would get flooded with items.
Or the market gets flooded with items and it's incredibly easy to gear you character (see D3 1.0).

If you don't like trading, don't trade.

It's not that easy. Evidence: D3 1.0 AH

D3 1.0 @ launch 5.8 million players daily.

after removal AH & trading 98.4% left.

That is the evidence. That blizz fcked up afterwards because they designed a trading game and ended up in a game that was lead by +_ 1000 narcistic autists that wanted to see their name on a ladder and were scared that they would not achieve that because of their lack of communication and trading skills. Unfortunately that group of cre-cre's had the biggest mouth. Hopefully people like you and the rest of those narcissists' will be ignored by blizzard this time.

if trading is removed the game will fail again just like D3.

I'm happy that you didn't get your way.

Everything is alredy said multiply times in detail in last 3 years.

Open trading ofc or game is dead in a 6 months, but they care about sales only and Activision Blizzard is doing everything to hype this up and grab cash on the old game name glory. They are not even mentioning trading, in last 3,5 years since announcement they mentioned trading two times. So they are acting like open trading is not important for the arpg. Also D4 is not arpg since it doesn't have open trading, its a mix of arpg and mmo. Genre still doesn't have name.

Exactly! keep in mind, that anyone who is against others trading has a mental disorder in the area of Narcissism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism "Narcissism is a self-centered personality style characterized as having an excessive preoccupation with oneself and one's own needs, often at the expense of others" Basically in the case of ARPG's they cant stand others being successful in a social skill (that you need for trading). They just look at their own competencies (that is playing 18x7 because they can't keep a job) that should make them more successful in the game (at least 1 thing in their life).

So yes, if you hear anyone that is against trading, keep in mind, they have a mental disorder.

That said I do believe we need to give those special people their own ladder. : "THIS IS THE BEST LADDER - NON TRADING" so they can compete with their cre-cre buddies while the 98.4% (this is the percentage of people that quit playing D3 after they closed the AH & Trading) of the rest of the people can just enjoy whatever they want to do in the game.

They could literally do Label Tag on every Account - if you haven't Traded yet you will have SSF tag alongside you account name. If you did at least One trade - your label is gone....

That will help those people find each other alike and they are like... Oh sht man you are SSF as well? Yeah man, so cool.

Well theoretically these people who want only bound items are not being able to see the big picture. An open trading system provides opportunity for all players to participate in said "High level of progression", those who don't have time can do it otherwise ( $ ), those who does have time can just "Nerd gaming" ( play, play, eat,sht, sleep, play, play... ).

They don't realize that if you make everything bound.... Only the "Nerd gaming" will be the ones playing like in Games like ArcheAge that literally has 200 players on each server, because most sht is bound and the only ones left playing are the ones that have the time/fortitude to "Nerd gaming".
