i always found it funny how a large number of "fair trading only"' fellowships don't allow fellows to post 0 or 1 star trades but then they advertise on overviews and recruitment posts how they use kp exchanges like they're part of some sort of benefit package available to all of their fellows.
yeah, kp exchanges are simple and useful for some but fair for everyone...hell no.
players who earn less kp for wonders get a lot less in return per kp spent in an exchange than players who spend a lot and earn top rewards for donations. kp exchanges can sometimes become competitions among fellows to claim the best rewards. some younger or less active cities can end up getting nothing back for the kp they spend. i'm glad my fellowships had both a traditional kp exchange and an alternative system based on spending an amount of kp about = to the amount won instead of forcing everyone into an exchange system that can prey on younger and less active cities.
fellowships that claim to believe in fair trading for goods but don't have alternatives for those who won't get a fair return on exchanged kp really don't truly believe in fair trading among fellows at all. i think that they have a weak system for exchanging goods to not allow fellows to trade goods how they want to and they aren't willing to or don't know how to promote and enforce policies that actually are fair for helping all of their fellows' wonders. teams that actually believe in helping all of their fellows can solve both of those problems but kp exchanges and fair trading only policies are so common that it takes a lot of effort to dispel the myth that those are the most fair systems.
