All the mods/devs wanted to do was force a Grand exchange into OSRS. This already failed, you wasted 6 months of dev time now you want to force automatic trading and a grand exchange both of which failed polls.


They're not forcing it down our throats, the majority of the community REALLY wants it. The trading post took 6 weeks, there was engine work required beforehand from the rs3 team.

GE destroys any hopes of skilling being profitable. It removes players from all over the map and concentrates them in one place. It allows wealthy people/groups to easily manipulate prices. It allows botters to easily sell items like seeds in bulk, which destroys prices. And it makes the game easier, which is a big part of why RS3 is so bad.

learn what manipulation is before u use it please.

Manipulation is when you lie about a price.


Manipulation is the skillful handling, controlling or using of something or someone.
Please learn the definition of manipulation and how to be a better troll.

been playing on several accounts since 2005 and i cannot believe the amount of people for ge??? wtf the main point of this server is to keep things the way it was back in the day. not to recreate rs3. the trading post is alright the way it is dont turn it into the ge.... if you do you may aswell add eoc, treasure hunter, ect... which all ruined the real runescape. let us enjoy the game that we came to love. plz dont keep making the game so damn easy
Lmfao ur 199 total , whats ur point? I guess you don't know the struggle to buy/sell items yet then. The GE will bring ALOT of good things; less scamming, lootshare/coinshare, no more merc*/scambots in W1 (dbones scam, verac skirt scam, ags scam etc).

Full GE please!

Can you guys add sets for God pages? (Zamorak pages 1, 2, 3, 4) Zamorak page kit


Also the following:


-
Quest kits
for popular quests like Desert treasure, Monkey madness, Recipe for disaster(different tiers like mith gloves kit or up to barrow gloves), would be stored inside of a crate or something. Would only be tradable once all required items are inside.
Yeah it would be a bit of work to figure out all the necessary items but i think it would
encourage questing.


Support god page kits, that would help out quite a bit.

I really wouldn't mind access to a fully functional GE screen when visiting a trading post. I like the non-intrusive look of the trading posts, and don't want a giant centralized GE, but the world-hopping and running to meet up has actually turned out to be a bit of a deterrent in the current system.

However instant trading through the post is great as well.

I guess you're the majority of the community that really wants it!! It's the same as when they "polled" splashing/afk/*** stakes. They will do whatever it takes now to make sure they didn't waste 6 months of work.

Uh, what lol? Go grab a dictionary and look up "manipulation" please. Price manipulating is controlling the price of an item to suit your needs. So, buying up all the whips in the game to jack up prices, and then selling them for a profit is an example (though not one that would necessarily happen).
