I do not think the Ge would be a good idea at all it would take out all player interactions. I believe the community needs to have a dedicated world example world 301 to (TRADING ONLY) either that be in a certain location like fally park or varrock or somewhere else. Having a dedicated trading world would benefient in more then 1 way that being you would not have to travel to different places and not having to go to multiple worlds this would be so much easier for people needing supplies quickly.


I believe if the Ge does get voted in it will hurt the community in multiple ways.

You are right in the part that it will kill huge, but not really worth part of interaction between players. I mean saying "ty" and tele/hop to previous destination is not that important. You think it is waste of time if players have to tele to the trade locations and hop worlds - you are totally right in this! the GE would solve it

I wouldnt really mind if they release grand exchange or not, although i will vote yes for it because buying/selling items can really get frustrating, and when im frustrated, im not enjoying the game, atleast Ge would relieve the stress of trading for me. I know i've got some friends over in Rs3 that dont like playing Osrs due to there being no grand exchange, and i think it would help them enjoy osrs more.

Tbh i see more Yes votes than No votes, but im not sure if it will hit 75%. Comped on Rs3 Dec 2012 |

I want to be able to post buy offers as well as sell offers.

I want to be able to sell unidentified herbs on the Trading Post.

I want more armour set options, such as bronze to dragon armour sets, and maybe armour sets without shields.

I don't like the idea of the +5% -5% or guide prices.

I do want trades to be able to be completed automatically.

I like the idea of the items going to the highest offer.

A full GE is not ideal but better than what we have now, however I would prefer improvements to the GE rather than an exact copy of the RS3 GE. Prices need to adjust a lot faster than they do on RS3 for example, to have more accurate prices, there should not be a street price and a GE price, there Trading Post should be the same as street price so the prices will be more accurate.

I do not want to see limits where you can only buy 100, or 10,000 of something when you want to buy 100,000 of something, though I do want a fair distribution of items so one person or small group does not get everything leaving others with nothing.

I don't think everyone understands why the GE is not a perfect solution, many appear to want it just because they are familiar with it and are not seeing the negatives and how the trading Post could be better than the GE with some improvements.

I want improvements to the Trading Post but not an exact copy of the GE. Hi.

Can we all take a step back and look at this as a whole? Oldschool runescape shouldn't just be about the graphics. We shouldn't have a grand exchange. The grand exchange ruined a big chunk of the game which was trading.

Keep oldschool oldschool. If people was the grand exchange they can play RS3. The trading post is fine, it's just an in game alternative to Zybez. We can't allow people to afk merch here. There's a lot of integrity lost there.
