This was a direct copy/paste from this Dead Frontier thread. Special thanks to Niosop. for creating it.

Welcome

Thanks for visiting. We hope that the Dead Frontier Mega Mall will help make your gaming experience more pleasurable.

How to Use
- Go to http://deadfrontier.niocode.com/ and take a look around. If you would like the system to list your items as well, enter your user ID in the box and click "Submit". Click on the "How?" link to see how to obtain your user ID.

- Clicking on the Trade link in the right hand column will take you to that person's trading page. Clicking on the Update button will cause an immediate refresh of that users inventory. We recommend clicking the user's Update button after purchasing something from them so the system can re-index them and stop displaying sold items.

- Use the drop down on the top left to narrow down what's shown.

- If you would like to remove yourself from the list, place any item for sale at a price of $55667788. Then enter your User ID in the box and click Submit. As long as you have an item for sale for that amount, the system will not display any links to you. To get put back in the system, simply remove the "opt-out" item (and optionally resubmit your User ID to have it take effect immediately).

Motivation
"I got tired of continuously having to post and bump my posts to try and sell my loot. Scrapping it seemed like such a waste, and I had almost no idea what my stuff was worth. Keeping it in inventory kept me from collecting much on my runs. I thought it would be very nice if there were some way to aggregate all the peoples inventory. After learning that it was on AdminPwn's roadmap, but not due for at least a little while, I decided to scratch my own itch and set something up. Many hours, a couple of dead ends, and 200 lines of python code later (python RULES), the first version was up and running."
