Default Red to blue trading

Hey everyone, I am new to blue I was playing on red, I was just curious as to how a pp trade from red to blue works and what kind of risks i would be looking at, like is it against the rules or just frowned upon? Anyways about to walk out the door, so ill just leave this here to get it started.

It is not against the rules and it is not frowned upon. I would make sure to take screenshots of all your transfers. Because it would look like one player simply giving another player some amount of pp for nothing in exchange would could flag a GM to ban because of RMT. The larger the amount the more risk. But this has happened to people and they have gotten unbanned by explaining themselves in the petition forum. I woudl assume that screenshots are helpful.

yeah what I did is I just had red and blue both up and alt+tabbed between them.

just put plat on blue up in trade window and plat up in trade window on red. One person has to click trade first, so some risk is present, but I've never had any issues. If you did get scammed or whatever just petition and im sure the gms will do something about it. They don't like scammers either.

Did a large transfer last night (to red) without any problems. Screenshots definitely a good idea.

Ok cool I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to be breaking any rules. Also what is the going rate, lets say i have 3k on red what does that equal out to on blue? Also thanks for the information guys.

GMs advise that you pro-actively post the trade with names, zones, and amounts on each server in the Petitions forum. That way they can reference it next time they do an RMT sweep. I do this for large MQs as well, where it looks like someone is handing me 30k pp for nothing.

Could potentially save you weeks / days of being banned until they get to your petition after the fact.
