king You don't even have a 99 in rs3 and please stop using other accounts to agree with yourself. This is the last time i will reply to you please stick to topic..

Holy ******* rofl, other accounts to reply you are a giant fail troll. I have no 99's in RS3 because I don't play it. I made my max cash bank and got every item I could ever want and found the game not fun when they added micro's/Grand exchange/no wildy/ trade limits and all the other crap that has spilled from that. You haven't been on topic once this thread and seem to avoid the posts where I explain why no grand exchange is better for the life span of OSRS.

im only upset at the fact that a while back we had said no to the grand exchange and now everyone wants it out o nowhere, i for one like the rading posts, it keeps the nostalgia going because its still trading manually. Its exactly like posting on forums saying you want to buy / sell things, the only difference is that its in game, i would love for to update the posts themselves so i can use the post on any side of it instead of always standing in front of it.

I would also like having the idea of having a button in game somewhere, where i can use the trading post anywhere i run too, im not so sure about the item in game because that would take up inventory and or bank space and nobody would want to use up that space if they are skilling or anything like that. Now with that said, i would also like to add the fact that it sound easier to just to add the grand exchange, but at the same time, i want to say no to that because im a player of both games, i do like to mix it up a bit, oldschool to new school, i do use the ge in new school because its way helpful and i dont have to stand typing the same thing over and over trying to buy one thing, but once in a while i would like to just play the old game with nestolgia, i want to beable to still play runescape but with the old ways, with its own updates. i want old school to be its own game that jagex has made for us to remember what we used to play, even if it has neat little updates such as rooftop agility or a new area where the clan wars are, stuff like that i get excited about because osrs is turning this game into what they remember. yes ge was a thing in 07, but i dont want to see it turn into rs3 eventually, that wouldnt be as fun because in the future, runescape now would be futurized and oldschool would be what rs3 is all about now... and thats not what osrs is about..
I LIKE STUFF AND THINGS

High IQ players realize the negative implications a GE would bring. The casual player wants the GE because it makes the game easier.

Like King said earlier the feedback for a GE in OSRS has failed multiple times yet Jagex continues to force it upon OSRS.

If the GE is released it will be this games EOC. I am strongly AGAINST the idea of expanding the trading post in any capacity.

Negative implications:

Price manipulation
Less player to player interaction
... makes the game easier?

Positive Implications:

*Merchanting, investing, flipping facilitated, which helps market flourish (volume is what drives trends)
*You can actually buy minute items no one ever really bothers to sell (mainly for quests but other things as well)
*Insane amount of time saved in the long run
*Lootshare and Coinshare possible

Ambiguous Implication(s):

More players - I assume the amount of people who will want to play OSRS because of G/E outweighs the amount who will quit over it, but that's an assumption so I won't put it on the positives.

Lootshare, time saved, "minute items", and merching implications are not positives. Those can ALL be considered negatives just as easily given we play an "old school" version of the game.

Try again.

Lootshare allows more players to Pvm without a risk of being scammed

Instant trading removes needless inconveniences encountered in various skills (try selling 200k gold bars or 700k cannonballs manually)

Merching becomes more straightforward with automatic trading, as players can merc* while skilling/killing rather than standing at varrock west all day.

Why do people deserve to merc* while they skill/PvM making even more money? I just sold 500k iron knives on **bez and it took less than 3 days playing normally. Sorry I don't want a game where everything is basically given to you.

Either way it looks as if automatic trading is going to come on this one, so if that's what it is going to come to then so be it.

Only if it passes polling.

Why don't you want automatic trading? You're 890 total with minimal experience in buyables. You probably don't realise the tedium that goes into purchasing the supplies required for skills like herblore or crafting. Selling the end product can be even more difficult, as you are forced to post an offer on **bez and leave it up for potentially weeks until all your produce is sold.
