It would nice to be able to trade weapons with other user accounts, or give away extra weapons.

    Read the thread called Common suggestions, questions, and answers before making another suggestion to avoid posting threads about things that should not be suggested.
    Gifting/Trading/Donating to other accounts (either cash shop or in-gamed items)
    -Is not something we intend to provide; this protects our assets and players from scams and fraudulent transactions. Some of our payment options offer methods to send funds to another person, but we are in no way responsible for any of these transactions and do not support them.

    If there isn't a way to enforce a fair trade, then this quickly becomes abused.
    Imagine a player makes new account, leveling it up to get the first 2 GP bonuses (10K and 20K) bonus GP and buying a DSR-1. Trades that DSR-1 for a M9 and sells the DSR on the main for 22,600 GP, a profit of 10,600 GP per trade. This 10,600 only takes about 3 hours to do, far faster then any other free method of GP gaining.

    Exactly like what other people said, It would become a very bad problem in game where to the point people would always complaining to support on being scammed, ripped off. It's like not being able to switch accounts for that reason: Support does not want people complaining 24/7.

    Forgot to say, I think it would be a cool idea but it wouldn't be so cool if I were scammed and many others think the same.

    You could create an account, level it up and spend the money on black market guns, then swap a hard to get gun for say an m9 with no effect on your main account, this would easily and quickly get abused. Let alone those who'd sell the accounts or weapons and the amount of scamming that'd come with it.

    Problems with this.
    1. The mentioned GP exploit.

    2. Players trying to get 1 sided deals. (Think how Pokemon's online trading is going, Hundreds of offers where a player is trying to trade a Pidgey/rattata in exchange for a legendary).

    3. Trading broken guns will be abused. To get the best value for their gun they'll break it first for profit and then trade it. Really annoying to fix that.

    4. How would the BM guns be priced? The GP guns at least have a set price and value that will not change, so a even trade is easy. But with BM weapons which are:
    A. Based on luck to get. (Low supply)
    B. Generally better then the GP guns. (High demand)
    C. Cost varies per winner. (1 person wins 1 in 10 crates, 1 wins 1 in 100 crates.)
    Their value will fluctuate quite a bit.

    5. Players attempting to actively scam others for better stuff.
