Default Grey/Silver Dye

Can we eliminate an potential dye trade scam before it gets started?

Grey and Silver look too much alike in the trade and inventory window
Hopefully Anet reads this.

last time I checked, Silver and Grey are two different words.

Edit: Besides, silver dye and grey dye are too cheap anyway. I even wrote black first by mistake.

Gray is matte and Silver is metallic. How is that similar?

I think Mdeshame's point is that we will soon see whining threads "waaaahhh, I bought silver, but got grey because I didn't read first.....waaaaaahhh....." because we all know that's how the complaint threads are gonna go. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Thats why you should really start reading what you are buying. I mean Come On... They even give a big [red warning] if the trade is edited.... what you want next? Anet themselves checking every trade?

Check > submit > check again> agree and this can be done in 3 seconds

Dye tarader? This falls into scams 101 look before you leap to the accept button.

If you really want to keep really want to get gray to keep gray dye from being a scam tool, have it be untradeable Although i'm unsure if those kinds of items exist.

Why? Because it's the one flaw in your request?
