Request: Auto-dismiss outgoing trade messages after X amount of time about slimtrade HOT 2 OPEN

I'll consider this, but I'm not entirely sold on it. One usability issue is that if trade messages are auto closing, the correct message might move around when you go to click on it. I could suspend the closing when you hover the notification frame, but I still think jumping frames might not be great.

The current solution to this problem is the quick close feature. If you right click the close button on an outgoing trade message, it will close all messages except for the one you click on. Admittedly it doesn't help as you spam trade requests, but it does let you quickly clear the screen when receiving a party invite.

You raise a good point regarding usability, although your suggesting of suspending closing when hovering over the notification seems like a suitable solution. Of course, my suggestion was meant to only be an option that can be turned on or off by the user, not something that would be imposed on all users.

In the meantime, while you decide whether to move forward with this suggestion, I'll make use of the right click close feature, which I wasn't aware of.
