The Power Of Trade

Throughout the land, sale and trade are commonplace, and advertising makes that easier.

Across Shinseina, those seeking to trade, sell, or purchase legal goods turn to a more open and recognized network: the Advertisement Board. Accessible through the Shin-Web and within physical hubs across the world, it offers a clean and official way for characters to showcase their wares or services without disrupting community flow. Whether in-roleplay or for practical OOC exchanges, this board allows everything from forged weapons to tailored protection contracts to be listed clearly and fairly.

Each listing is categorized to help streamline the experience for both seller and buyer. Tags ensure that goods, like swords and armor, rare potions, or crafting services, are easy to find, keeping the board organized and effective. Anything that doesn’t fall under standard tags is grouped under miscellaneous, offering flexibility for more creative or unusual items.

Sellers may choose to keep their trades fully within the roleplay world, meaning transactions and negotiations must occur between characters and be grounded in the lore. Others may allow OOC-approved sales, bypassing the need for in-character interaction entirely. Both are permitted, as long as the listings follow the server's standards and the seller makes their intent clear from the start.

Occasionally, special auctions are hosted through the board. These rare events offer players the chance to bid on valuable or unique items. Bidding is open to all, and currency isn’t the only acceptable offer; status, favors, or rare possessions may hold just as much weight, so long as they’re not illegal.

As the market grows, so too does the reputation of its merchants. Sellers are tracked by a Star Rating, ranging from one to five stars, reflecting their history of fairness, honesty, and consistency. New traders begin with a single star, but those who handle multiple clean transactions will see their status rise. High-star sellers naturally draw more trust and business.

Players can craft their listings however they wish, adding flavor, images, or story context, but all ads must be clear. Each must describe what’s being offered, include the correct tag, and respect the rules of the board. Illegal goods, anything banned in-universe, are not allowed. Any seller caught attempting to move contraband through the board will face consequences through in-character enforcement.
