gollark: I mean, *partially*.

gollark: Especially if instead of "***IOUs are not supported***" it's "the site helps with IOUs by enforcing transfer of stuff".

gollark: You may be in the minority. People who just join without seeing the forums and see "hey, I can trade for an IOU" may not think that.

gollark: Also, that it being a site feature will legitimize it and make it seem more trustable even if it's not particularly.

gollark: The trouble with automating IOUs would be that you *can* just not collect something, even if they're autotransferred somehow.
