Could you add something to list trustworthy/untrustworthy traders? I know it's a black market but it would be nice to know if someone's a cheat or not.

Great idea. I hope the blackmarket stays alive and well. Could use some tweaking, but I'm no guru with the google docs. 

I suspect in a month or so more players will be looking to trade as they decide hoarding resources may not be the best way to play.

I can see the black market and trade v2 working in harmony, actually. The trader/faction hub system prodives convenience and security, while the black market offers availability and control. Both have advantages and disadvantages, which would lead to yet more meaningful choices for players. Do I purchase from the black market to find exactly what I want, or from a trade hub to get it faster?

Its merely an alternative to what looks to be a complicated procedure in trading the new resource types, as well as having to spend gold and time on shipping out traders to all hubs, this is just a bypass.. Its not meant to ruin anyones experience...
