Thank you for implementing the one thing I left RS3 for. I will completely quit if this Grand Exchange turns out to be just like RS3 Grand Exchange.

The whole point for me playing 07 is that it "had" the whole player interaction going for it.

You are removing one of the most important parts of trading in Runescape.
The problem with most other games is that there is no human interaction anymore, its all automated and you never really get to talk to new players or make deals and trades with them.

I personally think that adding the Grand Exchange would completely remove the whole player to player interaction and thus just make Oldschool like RS3 with a few tweeks.

congratulations on turning 07scape into RS3 people. go play RS3 if you want an easy road to skilling and no human interaction. life inst about making money its about meeting new people, seeing other people who have the same interests as you and making new friends.

By adding the Grand Exchange you not only remove most of the player interactions you remove the one thing that separates RS3 and Oldschool.


Please i do encourage you to vote no on implementing the GE.

It makes no sence to ruin a good thing. And we already have a grate trade system already why ruin it.

All the GE is going to do is enable people to bot more and make money easier.

You are removing the one aspect of oldschool that people from the old days loved about this game.

we like the human interaction, all the people who dont are hermits that dont like talking to people and live in there moms basements eating Cheetos and crackers.


The implementation of the Grand Exchange into 07 would completely kill the community.

There will be no human interaction.
There will be no deals.
There will be no players talking to each other anymore.
no one will have a need to conversate anymore other than to do certain quests or boss battles.

whats the point in playing the game if your just going to keep making it easyer and easier for people to level.

we wanted a way to trade and you gave us a way to trade.

why remove the one thing that separates RS3 From OSRS?

the people who are voting yes to this want an easy road to buying end game gear and dont want to go through the process of talking to another player.

I think in personal terms that we should keep the trade hub but make it so that if people have there friends chat off or on friends only there trading posts are not posted on the trade hub.

OR

We should make the trade chat something more people should be using. and if the trade chat is off then people who are selling stuff on the trade post will not be listed. and make a trader list so that instead of adding people to your friends list and having to delete them every time you trade the players can automatically be deleted after a certain amount of time from the trade list.

we should be building off the idea of the trade hub not removing it completely.
thats like discovering gold and saying MEH its only gold. Then burying the hole.

NO TO THE GE AND YES TO TRADE HUB UPDATES!

By adding in the GE you are basically doing the same thing you did with the wild and you will be losing tons of people who love this game and several subscribers.

there needs to be some common ground here.

We all need to come to an agreement on this you cant just have a poll about it that would not be fair to the 25% who voted no.

there has to be a way to make both party's happy.

Because this is not some simple update. there are things we all need to talk about before you do this.

The GE is a huge update!

If the GE is implemented i think that items posted should not be sold if you are offline. that makes it to easy for people to make money.

If your offline your not in the game and there for you do not exist, in that moment of time.

all in all the trade hub just needs some updates you dont need to resort to adding a whole new area of the map just because little kids who dont want to spend the time trading and want an easy access way of beating the game.

Please read my posts before making your decisions.

As a player from 2001 im sorry for all the other players from my time who are feeling the same way, im with you all on this but if they do bring the GE to the game you dont need to quit. you just need to post ALLOT OF QUESTIONS AND SUGGESTIONS on the forms telling them what should be changed, everyone has a voice in 07 even the 12 year old kids saying yes to the GE.

From a nine year player/member...

I have very fond memories of RS before the GE - in fact, before many of the safeties and shortcuts we now know in RS3 were implemented.
When Old School opened I, and many other players happily rushed there to experience again the genuine fun to be had in building our characters from the ground up, using raw materials and player interaction. (Thank you, Jagex!)

Much has already been said about the GE killing player interaction and self-sufficiency in the game. Well, like it or not, it's true.

I really don't object to the GE in RS3 - I know that many players derive great enjoyment from using it and, in fact, I do use it there myself sometimes. But PLEASE do not add the GE to Old School - it will completely change the face of RuneScape '07 by omitting the need for one-on-one trade and interaction and will simply turn Old School into a slightly old fashioned version of RS3.
