MOD ASH please read me.

Well, to start I find that the majority of questions are great; for example "Trouble Brewing". That definitely will allow people to play that minigame. And it's not like the 75% of players will play it, it's something for the minority that enjoy just spending time on runescape.

But, you know what I am about to say. NO to GE. But I have a list of suggestions that could help while updating TP or GE(if it pass).

- In TP you could make it that you could dump your items there, and if you are offline more than 10min for example(this allows world hoping). The offer will be taken down automatically; this allows to trade between worlds.
- In case of GE same sugestion, dont allow offline trading.
- The price manipulation comes exactly from "merc* prices" that are suggested; so why dont you just leave that alone and dont sugest anything. Let the players look offers and buy wich they find better for them, thats the succes of zy marketplace.
- If GE pass dont make it a place north of varrock, while I support the idea of adding it in falador or camelot; its better just to change TP's into mini GE's so that people stay scatered around RS and not in just one place.

Thanks for reading MOD ASH.

Say NO to GE=NO merc* clans
Say NO to GE=NO price manipulation
Say NO to GE=NO angry players quiting

The GE completely ruins the concept of free trade. The trading post is really ideal***** makes reintroduces "buyable" skills. ex. cooking, fletching****..etc..this ruins the integrity of the game and all of the hard work that the "original" osrs players put in.

Reintroduces buyable skills??
So i couldn't go to W1 now and sit there and buy raw fish or logs?
Moron
What you are saying is you oppose trade of any kind.

Yup if the skills are buy-able after the release of GE then they are buy-able now

I'm totally against GE and find the questions about TP really usefull. But I'm note here to just rant about this "sayin no ge, bla bla bla... angry face... bla bla... no trade bla bla bla... another angry face..."; I'm trying to give possible solutions. Giving sugestions. Not just rants.

But all that seems to happen is:
We want to be able to trade through the post
Ok
GE, you can trade through it?
Not that S*** we don't want that it F***s the game up
Repeat
You are right there sir. But MODASH came with a developer blog including GE in the title, like i didnt see this coming. I'd would prefer a developer blog with title "Changes to Trading Post".

Exactly how can you be pro Trading Post buy and sell from the interface without world hopping and player interaction, but against GE because you buy from the interface without world hopping and player interaction? These "elite" OSR "veterans" are very educated it seems.

I think the majority of the anti GE tribe are mostly that because they just think GE=Bad and so far there don't seem to be many logical reasons why it's so evil

My point of view is this. With GE you go; place 5 offers to buy 10 veracs helmets for 500k example and the 6th offer is Selling veracs helmets for 550k. You lazy players out there.

Is that so different from having two accounts and having one buy d bones 1500 and one selling d bones 1650...
