Hello,
It has recently come to my attention that you can trade with someone and it makes a trade window pop up on their screen.
It seems to do this even if the person I am trading with has me blocked.
I can also cancel the trade and re-open a trade to make the window keep popping up, is this intentional or a bug?
Perhaps an "Accept Trade from X?" button would be needed?
All the best,
Tom

a dialogue would do the same thing... just keep popping up. if youve ever seen fleet invite spam you know what i mean. they can only open a trade with you if theyre in the same station/citadel.. if someones bugging you, grab a ship and float to the next docking station.
or ya know, bait them out and send them home the super fast and fun way

I'm not sure about abuse, or if this ought to be its own thread. But i'll admit it's a bit too easy to accidentally start a trade window with a station guest when you have absolutely zero intention to initiate the window.

Just scrolling down or up as the case may be. Next thing you know, an accidental trade window opens.. Zero desire to spam, trade with or even scam anyone. Just kind of bothersome in very busy stations.
