When a player initiates a trade with you, it typically goes like one of these:
a) Hmm, need to find that player and click on them ...
OK, found them ...
Hmm, they are a Sorc surrounded by 5 warriors ...
Clicked the wrong one ...
Clicked the wrong one again ...
[Message from player "TRADE ME"]
b) OK, I will just hit /trade {their name}
Let's try that ....
/trade {weird name that gets changed by auto correct}
"PLAYER NOT FOUND"
Lets try again.
/trade {weird name that you get right this time}
"Player no longer in zone as it has been too long"
Yay, FUN!!!
So, I understand that having a pop up when someone trades you to accept is intrusive and could be used to annoy players. But what if /trade with no name accepts the trade. If that could get too confusing, how about a /accept command to initiate.
