Please list reasons that a "legitimate player" needs free trade please.


To be able to decide prices for themselves on what an item is worth for the effort they put into obtaining the item.

To be able to lend items to a friend, or gift something to someone, or receive gifts or lend or borrow items.

Reason 1 is great reason if you want to scam.

Reason 2 item lending/barrowing and gifting is worth ruining the whole game over....got it...

Getting what an item is worth for the work you put into obtaining it is in no way scamming.

Wait, you're able to trade to people at whatever price?


Yes, you can trade bonds to other players for whatever price someone is willing to pay, from free to max cash or max item stack.

There is one big problem with the bonds...
If the gold farmers are selling their gold for 5$ for 15m, then what is stopping the players from buying that, then buying 2 bonds with the 15m, and exchanging that for membership. Effectively getting half priced membership from leaching off the rule-following players? Please Respond This is a big problem

During both free trade and limited trade the most a item could gain or loose on ge was plus minus 5%.

Causing panic, or taking advantage of the sale of a brand new item for ridiculous amounts of gp is not what a legitmate player would do.

Creating panic or selling way above what the ge can gain within a reasonable amount of time is just another form of scamming. Ruining the entire game for this..still not buying it..

Exactly what I've been saying. The only way Jagex can make this work is make bonds worth a worth a set-price of gold, that undercuts the competition (RWT). Right now they're lingering at around 6.5m. Now, when RWT are selling gold at 15 for 5$, who would be stupid enough to buy a bond for 5$ when it's only worth 6.5m? Jagex realizes this, which is why they were at 15 m ea in the ge before they reached the free market. But there are simply too many, and not enough demand for them to matter ... so they're now cheap, and so cheap, in fact, that they're redundant to their purpose, because no one brazen enough to buy from RWT would buy from Jagex instead (it's not a good deal!). So: Bonds have to be worth more in terms of what they do, to keep and maintain a high price that will be able compete with RWT (this means MORE MEMBERSHIP, MORE SPINS, MORE RUNECOINS -- A LOT MORE!) As they stand, they will be 5 mil by the end of the month, because, lets face it, 14 days of membership isn't really a whole lot....
