No, we are not automatically rooting for all votes to pass. We generally only poll something if we think it's got a reasonable chance, but we'll poll something we don't personally enjoy if there's enough demand for it.

A lot of people have asked us to expand the trading post into a full GE. And we could do that. It's not impossible anymore; we have more engine support than we had a year ago. So we acknowledge this.

I'd personally prefer to go with more conservative expansions, such as the idea for sending Trade requests through the post to open the trade screens remotely.

But it's not my call; it's yours.

The discussion in this thread illustrates rather nicely why we didn't just poll the GE straight out in the first place; there's clearly a lot of sentiment against it, and I doubt it would have passed. Even now I don't think it'd pass. But I could be wrong.

Nice, finally! Awesome update, mercers will be mad atm, but in the other hand it will probably be better marching via trading post

EDIT: Nvm, it's just like the zybez trading but moved to ingame

Almost complete....just have to make it so we can trade straight through the trading post. Tired of wasting my time finding a person and hopping to other worlds etc... There is no interaction other than a thank you or very little else said during these trades. Please make it so we can trade straight through and not have to meet the person, make our own prices and make it easier to sell little inexpensive items without standing around forever and wasting valuable game time. Put the scammers out of business!

^ This. It's not worth going through the trouble of selling inexpensive items as it stands now. I support Trading Post upgraded to Grand Exchange status 100%. (Also, Grand Exchange access in every bank!)

Completely disagree. The Grand Exchange made getting items for quests way too easy. It also takes away the difficulty or time in obtaining everyday items. For me that difficulty created a sense of immersion, something which got ripped away again and again in rs3 with the G.E, tool belt and then unlimited teleportation to major cities.

Every time RS3 made a feature easier it diminished other content. Please don't make the same mistake again in Old School :(

So basically, this is just zybez. Pretty disappointing, would like to be able to somehow trade without logging in and out just to sell or buy a small quantity of items\item that isn't worth selling. The grand exchange mechanics were great, even if you can't use the trading post offline, if it had the ability to trade remotely it would be fantastic.. maybe a pm system, i hate having to add and delete people. but not all of us have that stupid *sbuddy client to hop around instantly. Small things like this make trading awful and this update did nothing to help that.

Let's just go for full GE please, I think we're ready now and with Ironmen it won't be affected

Just call it ingame zybez.. Unfortunately it's such bad content since you have to stop what you're doing to post on there..

Hopefully trading through the Trading Booth will be a feature soon, trading while online would be good enough OR just a full GE.

Yes PLEAASE just give us full GE I think that's what most people really want at this point, it's just so much easier and won't impact market prices, but indeed help them.

Some jmods should work on the rooftop courses so that you dont fall into the end house when you jump off the course... and make the random events simpler... we all know how to do the suprise exam.. we all can do the gravedigger without instructions every time.. we can skip the beekeeper, or make actual rewards for it..****-fresh'en the sandwich ladie's stock...
