    Suggestion:
    Change this rule:
    "We do not allow trading of Brawl store purchases for anything from a third party or external source. This includes Minecraft accounts, Counter-Strike skins, money, etc. In addition, you may not trade Brawl store purchases in return for a player to join your in-game clan, give in-game items to you, etc."-Brawl rules.
    to this
    "We do not allow trading of Brawl store purchases for anything from a third party or external source. This includes Minecraft accounts, Counter-Strike skins, money, etc. "
    Brawl get $ and the players that trade items for brawl ranks are happy. Why not allow it?

    what if players get scammed while trading in game items?
    they wont be happy and that person who scammed will have a bad rep and wont be able to scam again unless players are stupid

    Not gonna lie I have done this a lot (didnt know it was against the rules) and with my trades brawl got money, I got items I wanted and the player who I traded with was happy with his new rank. The trades are agreed between the players and don't happen if they don't agree with what is demanded...

    and the players who aren't involved in the trade benefit from the server they play on being better funded

    It is a liability for brawl to allow people to trade items, and there is literally no benefit to the server from players trading for stuff. The rule was really meant to place an emphasis on NOT contacting brawl when players do get scammed, and removing it means we (brawl) gets emails regarding scams and unfair deals.

    ignore the emails...
    "We do not allow trading of Brawl store purchases for anything from a third party or external source. This includes Minecraft accounts, Counter-Strike skins, money, etc. Trading in game items for brawl shop items is allowed but is at the player's own risk of being scammed. "

    $$$ from the sale of brawl shop items

    What's the point of this statement then?

    You clearly have no idea how to run a business and keep customers. You do not simply ignore emails. Also, if we reply with the statement you put above, we are just going to get a lot of negative feedback, from players and parents alike. Remember we are a minecraft server, we can't go around telling parents that their kids are stupid even if they are, because it will lead to more Eula ****.

    The rule stated above is basically: trade all you want, real money or not, but don't complain to us if you're scammed.

    players can trade items for brawl shop stuff at their own risk
    ok dont ignore them, just copy and paste an email saying blah blah blah 'as explained in the rules trades are at the players risk'blah blah blah

    so players can trade with out risking getting banned?
