Problem: Contracts linked in trade channels cannot be accepted or bid upon if not in same region

Solution 1: Make contracts be able to be accepted and bid upon from anywhere in the world

Solution 2: Make a "world" type contract that probably cost more to setup (Will also act as a isk sink) but can be accepted and bid upon from anywhere in the world

Has it occurred to you that that is intentional?

So that people move around the universe.

So that different regions can have different prices for things.

So that people in High/Low/Zero security space can't bid on things in other security sectors without traveling there.

People will move around regardless, they will in fact move around even more when they can purcahse or bid on contracts in other regions

Prices will always fluctuate. At least it will be up to you to proove they will consolidate if people can bid upon or accept contracts in other regions.

Why should people have to be in the same region the contract is in before being able to accept or bid on it?

Btw. take a look at this recent chat from one of the trade channels. I took the liberty of screen dumping it, i will remove it if anyone wants me to.
