Sigh yet again the solo player gets screwed, either make all features available to all players or stick them where the sun don't shine

5) Some schemes will be available only through Trading Posts and at high prices. This should create a use for veteran players with hoarded dollar bills.
8) Homesteads will not be allowed to place a Trading Post. This feature will be available for tribes of band size and above. Larger tribes will have their Trading Posts updated with new items more frequently.
1) Players will be able to choose what tribe they are currently trading with. This will determine the type of items being traded.
See #8 above

If you have been here since beta and have huge tribe your good. Hell even if you HAD a big tribe at some point but only have 1 paying sub your good. But those of us that are a bit newer are screwed (or pony up the cash for 4 more accts).
We could by chance, on some rare occasion, sell something in chat. That will now be an even less likely possibility. Some of us do not want to be in a big tribe but still want to trade. For a "player driven game" this update seems like the complete opposite of that. Why not just tie our trade totems together? Let the players drive the economy?
