This ''Send 'Trade' requests through the post''

It would suck if you both have to be at a trading post to complete the deal. Just place sell offers and ppls could buy it at any time if they are at the trade post. Only thing for you to do it accept the offer (maybe ppls could even offer lower on it as in ge, but not the auto trade).

And offers should be removed when a player is offline for a longer period of time, not when world hopping.

I don't like the ge coz it would look to much like rs3, and we all think that rs3 sucks. Thats why we play 07rs.

you act like everything in rs3 is bad while many think its not ,same aspects yes,some aspects not. and 'WE' do not always think what 'YOU' think so stop using the 'WE' form if the minority agrees with you

Why would Jagex ruin OSRS whit G.E? It was a failure on rs3 so why would you even suggest to bring it to OS? This is ridicilious, if this goes trough, i will cancel my membership. And i think i'm not the only one who will do it..

I'd really like a GE supporter to attempt to respond to this.

"Are the people who constantly complain about the very fundamentals of the game really the ones you want to pander to Jagex? If their attention span is so short and it's so hard for them to find something to do while they're "waiting for a trade" does it really seem like they'll be around for the long haul? I know, since everyone is so pathetically impatient why don't we all just get the ability to generate items? With the mentality that these GE supporters have I'm sure even the time it takes to get to the GE will be far too tedious to bear so just give us item generation powers

Seriously, you GE supporters are just laughable."

I'm not out to shove my opinions down peoples throats or be pretentious but the way you GE supporters are presenting yourself is just crap. Not once have I seen any valid point made. Only "I don't want to spend time looking for trading so I can do other things". Do you not realize how that makes you sound? Are the people that actually like the game for what it was really not deserving of credit? You're talking about drastically altering one of the biggest fundamental aspects of the game... for convenience?

Spot on, Nordaf. The trouble is in order for the GE to be as convenient as they are asking, like in RS3 where you can insta-buy all your quest items before heading out...
it has to first become a place where everyone dumps all their garbage.

I have some low-level stuff in my bank that I will NEVER use. I don't care; my bank is well organized and the stuff isn't in my way. Every so often some noob in a bank happens to be needing a tool or a piece of low-level armour, and if he's asking politely it's often something I happen to have and don't mind sharing.

In RS3 I cleared that junk out of my bank long ago, into the dump it went, and auto-distributed itself to noobs across the worlds, noobs who have never even heard of places like Loui's Legs. It's a completely different game when there's a GE. It's not the EoC that made it so different.
