Hardcore showing up under Softcore Trades

Hey le3bl,

The browse trades area has a specific section for just hardcore trades, so you shouldn't be seeing softcore trades there.

The search function has a hardcore filter, so you shouldn't be seeing softcore trades there either (though pagination past page - has issues) if you selected that as a filter.

As for softcore traders commenting on HC trades, I've already gone through the trouble of adding multiple indicators on the trade that it is hardcore - a header icon with a tooltip, and a big warning block with an exclamation icon saying 'Hardcore trade'. I can't make people read if they don't want to.

In light of these comments is there anythibg you want to expand on?

Instead of creating a new thread, this should be the right one for this.

I mainly search trades by going through the Database and the listing there does not have filters so i can see "wrong" trades for me.
First trade is PS but i'm on PC.

In my opinion this view should use your user details (Plattform, Classic/Expansion, Resurrected/Legacy, Hardcore/Softcore and Ladder/non-Ladder) to filter it. With the possible incoming Ladder this should help to reduce incompatible trade partners.

I want to add my 2 cents to this topic.

I play on PC softcore only (for now), and I admittedly use this trading site ALOT. In fact, I love it, and I used to use d2jsp back in the day.

Having said that, I have felt that there is actually somewhat of a problem with hardcore trades. At least once or twice a day, I accidently attempt to buy an item from a Hardcore trader. Yes I know, there is a little triangle &

Skull there that tells me that I am wrong, but I never seem to notice it until I stare at the page for a couple of minutes.

I can't imagine how frustrating it has to be for a Hardcore player, (the Playstation players have the exact same issue, and again, I accidently attempt to buy PS4 items on a daily basis).

This isn't really a complaint, just my feedback. Myself, as a softcore player for the time being, the trading mix-up doesn't bother me too bad. But I feel like it would be very frustrating to be a SELLER that is anything besides PC/Softcore. (because you get F'ing idiots like me screwing up your trades on a daily basis.)

I have no experience in creating coding or creating websites/forums etc. I am just going to throw out a (hopefully very simple) & friendly suggestion, because nobody wants to hear criticism without also an idea for improvement.

Would this be possible? (in very large bold COLORED text that no one can miss.)
