Even though I don't post pics myself (I don't know how on here) I totally agree with what you're saying and also big fan of your disclaimer I just saw in your santa sale post and I will probably start doing something similar.

I'm glad you like it. I'm trying to remain unbiased - but for a lot of brand new players, the RSoF may be their first experience with the wider RS community. It's not fair, nor does it do them justice if they fall prey and join these "clans" thinking they're going to make money and not recognizing they're getting scammed.

Watch out for "merchant" clans or Friend Chats, chances are the high level ranks are just tricking you into making money for THEM. A big Red Flag are players in-game who use auto-typers to spam their FC and discord information; if you see this you should avoid those links. .

1) People use alts to trade for both legitimate and illegitimate reasons. I wouldn't say it has any real impact on the validity of a trade. Most trades don't get reported on the forums anyway unless it pushes margins in a perferred direction

2) Asking for one person to run the thread instead of another isn't going to solve any manipulation issues you have, it just allows one singular person to have an even bigger influence. I'm sure Jagex's current CM team is wonderful but their past reputation is laughable at best with how much corruption happened in the early/mid 2010's.

What's wrong with the current system? People are trading just fine and you can always call out conflicts if you see them.

I think the real question that we should be asking is why one of RS3's biggest gold sellers (starts with an Su and ends with a eD) isn't banned yet? Not trying to single anyone out but there's a few others on here like him lol

Jagex should be more concerned about the rampant partyhat RWT "stake trading" that goes on in the duel arena with (everyone knows who) that price gouges partyhats.

Just saw him casually "lose" a few bill shards w54 the other day by pausing auto retaliation for 3 hits

Most trades that Merchers do, as well as normal people/whales tend to report them on forums. At least things that go on, in world 2. Of course Merchers are less likely to report buying prices, and generally favour posting low/high trades based on overall market trend but I can tell you they don't control the economy even a little bit.

It doesn't matter who the person is, as long as they actually had any power to moderate the thread, and were not advertising Scam/Manip FC's

I genuinely think you're trolling if you think the system wasn't flawed for a long time.

Hi Leo/Pis

I see you're back to calling me RWT'er on this account, which was banned not too long ago for same accusations. It makes me glad that I am triggering you folks enough for you to stoop this low, but then again, there isn't really much of a rock bottom for you scums.

I think all RWTers need to be banned, not just banned on mains, but all their alts, everything needs to be chain banned.

Duel Arena itself needs to be nuked, and removed from game at this point because of the toxicity it breeds, apart from everything shady that goes on there.

There is some kind of weird rule that if you're the original poster you somehow dictate what's wrong and what's right within that thread (as long as it's within RSOF rules, of course) so with that in mind, YES someone else running the threads might actually have a pretty big impact.

There's a lot of stuff wrong with current system, by the way. Rank #56 Overall. 8000/1****? Hard caskets stacked. 7000/8****? Elite caskets stacked.

Would you trust a Price-checking service that has bots running in W2 advertising themselves constantly? I wouldn't!

Not to mention this thread has already had an impact on anonymous trades or trades being reported without timestamp.. and people were saying, old system is fine and it would be too complex to ask people to post trades with timestamp.

If we come together as a community to tackle a few people ruining the system via means of FCs/Bots to scam unsuspected people, we can go a long way.
Karma will catch up to these guys eventually.

Its not worth the time surprised, his forum history says enough, 12 posts, 11 posts hidden for rulebreaking. and besides that enough people know you well enough to say your here for the community so dont worry. trusting certain pc lists or prices of items or websites that dont belong to jagex will get you into trouble notice: external websites and trades are your responsibility, dont get fooled!.
