1.1 - FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is this?
It's an association for Spiral Knight Merchants.

2) How do I get classified as a merchant?
Merchant = a person who buys and sells commodities for profit; dealer; trader.
Dictionary Definition was used.

3) How does this thread have any purpose?
If you don't see any purpose in this thread; then you don't need to. Just silently click that 'Back' button and pretend nothing ever happened.
I am not liable if you choose to waste your own personal time writing a complaint or something like that.

4) Jokes aside, What's the main purpose?
This thread is intended to be an 'Easy-to-access' Spiral Knight Merchant Information Directory.
The purpose being to create an easy way for most players to know who is a reputable merchant and who isn't.

5) Why would we need reputation for merchants?
To help the smart buyers/sellers (You know, the ones that look up information so they don't get ripped off)
If you don't see value in that, no worries; just return to Step 3.

6) What if the list gets really long? How would looking up a merchant be 'easy'?
The list will be Alphabetized. Simply know what letters a merchant's In-game name starts with and finding him on this list should be easy.
If not found, the player either hasn't been nominated or registered.

7) How do I Register?
To register, please begin by reviewing the requirements on section 1.3
If you meet the requirements and wish to register, then please fill out the registration form seen on section 1.4
You can submit this registration form by 'In-Game Mail' or as a 'Comment/Response' to this thread.

1.3 - Requirements

Merchant Requirements

1) You need to have have a decent understanding of the Spiral Knight's market. What kind of merchant doesn't understand the market?

2) You need to have bought, sold, and/or traded any type of Spiral Knight in-game goods within the past two weeks of attempted registration.

3) The term 'Merchant' is self-explanatory. A Player who Buys, Sells, and/or Trades for Profit.

4) You need to have bought/sold/traded a lot of items. Just selling or buying a few items doesn't make you a merchant. A lot is a flexible term though.

5) You can still register if you're a former merchant; even if inactive.

Nominator Requirements

1) You need a general understanding of the game; at very least.

2) You need to have been a Spiral Knight's player for at least 1 week.

3) You need to be respectful, reasonable, and logical; don't nominate someone unless you're sure they meet the merchant requirements.

Mini-The-Monsta

this is a good idea

will help newer people find proper merchants based on their needs, e.g they can find a weapons or accessory merch, they see proof of customers and business, credibility, and it would really benefit both ends.
