I'm sure this update will be interesting to some people but I'd like to know when we can see a trading solution. We need the GE. I saw a post somewhere that said the GE was polled and failed. I'd really like to know when that was. I remember a poll about an inferior solution called the trading post but I never remember a poll about the GE. I also remember seeing posts saying "we're working on the trading solution so we won't be polling that for future updates". Where is it???
On a separate note, I think the way oldschool updates are being managed is flawed. Polling users is not an appropriate way to determine product features no matter where you set the acceptance threshold. Of course players think it is great but anyone with any experience in product management knows the concept is flawed.
Let's say something passes with 75% of the vote. That means that 1 out of 4 players don't like the idea. Are their opinions irrelevant? Jagex should have the authority and responsibility to make decisions that are in the best interest of the game and not sluff this responsibility on players.
I may be in the minority but I hope Jagex will consider what I'm trying to say.
