Trading shouldn't be the game right now cause some players play the market instead of playing Toribash. By disabling standard trading for regular items, we move the economy from a speculative bubble (where players buy items just to sell them) to a prestige economy. You don't buy an item to flip it; you buy it to keep it.
Sounds like "I don't like this so nobody should be doing it" type of approach. There's always been Toribash users who were here only in to trade - because open economy has always been a crucial part of the game. There's nothing wrong with hardcore marketers buying items just to flip them because at the end of the day they
still typically end up offering either cheaper options compared to the shop or otherwise inaccessible items when it comes to rare stuff.
Honestly though, where does this "limit trading to
fix economy" idea come from? The only reason open trading doesn't exist in most games is to maximize company profits as the official shop would be the
only place where players can spend their game currency - that's what Rocket League did in 2023 when they shut down trading, for example. It's never done in favor of consumer.
