If players arent allowed to post others' prices, pricing fc are dead for the forums, meaning everything will go to discord. I don't care either way, just mentioning the result.
These rules might be good for discontinued items, but I think they're bad for tokens and gear. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.

Would you rather have Hearsay and speculation and pyramid scheme manipulations of FCs or rare but genuine reports of actual players trading?
I see your point, but I feel no empathy for the FCs, in the context of this issue. I obviously like the pricing FC. I think they're a useful source of prices when none are available.
R Quark worked very well, when rares traded in the ge and there were only a few items anyone flipped. That era is over with. So, pricing fc do not work nearly as well as they did in the past.
I don't use discord. I fear I'll get hacked. I like using runescape services and having everything in the open, everything through runescape. If pricing fc thread posts are removed, then I'll just have less information to work with. Not a big deal though.

The way I always traded, when there were more forum posts to use, was to rely on people I trusted. If a random posted a phat trade, I doubted it.
Time stamps etc. would certainly improve the reliability of posts, but cheaters are still going to cheat. People would find a way to fake it. And then you have people like me who don't even know how to post a time stamp. I just wouldn't post, at least until someone explained how to post.
A major problem right now is: A complete lack of reported prices. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.

It took me about a month to become familiar with posting a screenie. Many post prices without understanding how to correctly post their image. It's a simple thing, but when you're busy and not trading that much, there's a learning curve.
If you create any requirement, that's going to exclude some people.
I know some with rares who could buy a phat, if only they understood how to trade shards. They can't do shards, so it's possible they will never own a phat.
At the polls each election year, there are a large number who can barely figure how to vote. You don't expect your cat to post a screenie. Humans just aren't much more capable.

Surprised,
how is a FC to record its prices? If I write down each price report for an hour, then log out. Who gets my prices? They're lost.
And then someone logs in asking for a price. No prices.
There needs to be some place in runescape for an fc to record its prices. You know full well that no matter where on this website such a list is sent, most people will go there for prices. Because it's a better source of info.
And if such lists are banned from rs, then people will go to discord - where they will be hacked. I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity.
