Hello traders!

Please allow me to welcome you to this trading post where I am hoping we can all do business with one another. There has been trade on YWS since the existence of points but we're testing out what happens if we make it more official.

This trading post is going to be here for 2-4 weeks while we test out the idea. If all goes well, it will become a permanent part of YWS. If it looks like there's no need for it/ if it seems too many people are failing to fulfill their trades then we'll take it away.

If it gets taken away, any trade agreements made before then should still be fulfilled so don't worry too much if you're giving people longer than 2 weeks to fulfill their side of the agreement.

As this is a trial, we're really keen for any and all feedback so let us know what you think of the idea/ how it could be improved in the comments below.

I like this idea, but maybe it needs to be promulgated a bit more. I didn't see this addition being mentioned anywhere, and not everyone regularly checks the forums.

@tigeraye --> Excellent point! We'll get right on that! Don't forget to spread by word of mouth, too. ;)

Ah, good point. I may replace it with a feedback thread/ general explanation but I'll leave it here for just a little bit longer to remind me I need to do that. Thanks @LittleLee!

Yes, reviews can be traded for points here or vice versa. It's pretty much a buy/ sell/ trade anything kind of a deal. Obviously you can't sell your sister's piggy bank but as long as it has worth on YWS and it's not breaking the rules, you're good to go.

I like it :) I'll do a proper re-vamp of the first post at some point...

Never forget how special this site is: the older I get, the more I realize how many lonely writers there are who have only family and maybe some friends to read their works. The fact we get free critique, nightly writing pads, free contests and unlimited interaction at *no cost* with people genuinely wanting to help, can not be overstated or overrated
