I am looking for a better trading experience.

Some people enjoy spending their time on trading. I think it has something to do with getting deals (buy low sell high), knowing all the prices, seeing their gp grow from their skill, working the forums, being an experienced trader, and so on. You might think of it as a minigame for them. I am not one of these people. Trading is a painful experience that I almost always avoid. I support anything that can make this experience more pleasant. Please vote for less clunky trading!

I am ready for the convenience of automatic trading, whether it be Grand Exchange or 'Automatic trading', and I hope 75% of the community is as well. I am worried that the votes for those supporting automatic trading could be split between “Grand Exchange” and “Automatic Trading”. I hope Jagex has taken this into account and will poll expansions to trading post accordingly. (Maybe a priority? My vote would be Grand Exchange first choice, Automatic trading second choice)

With the potential of Grand Exchange being added to the game I would like to see price manipulation a punishable offense. This would put those worried about merchant clans negatively altering prices mind's at ease.

In 12 days I celebrate my 10th year playing Runescape, what generation does that put me in? Just wondering

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?

Bring the GE. Honestly the 50% complaining about the GE being polled, Go shove it up yourself. The trading post is the same thing, They can make their own prices, They make their own rules 1k min etc.

I been playing since 2001, I've done my time and hard ship looking for items, and Btw when trading came back, and pking came back in pre eoc it was still fun, the EOC crap ruined it for everyone not the GE lol...

I don't care to talk to others trying to bargain for items and prices do you do that at wal-mart? do you do that at any other retailer? NO you get your stuff and get out.

Since zybez came out, It's made me more annoyed to go find items from people, potions, sets etc and I haven't fully played. Call me lazy all you'd like but I rather have a simple item retrieving system then go on my way.

For merchanting clans, they already have them you're just to blind to see it.

Bring in the Grand Exchange and be done with it.

Yall 50% that don't want it, better get 51% next.
