"It's old school for a reason" No it's not the way we are going were entering a pre eoc era I love it but sooner or later an update will come that will ruin the game because everyone wants new things to continue to come what will happen when the game itself has over 100 weapons to use? Likewise to any other skill this game is changing to fast should be an update every 3 months not every week

In my opinion, and to be frank, I'm quite tired of the endless flow of scammers. It makes the community look so bad, and takes away from what it means to play the game. I'm sure this has already been addressed, but as a veteran player to this game the G.E. will prevent so much time lost going from player to player only to have continuous scams attempted on you. I know it's always the duty of the player in the process of attempting to make a trade, to check the second screen; in many instances, that I have personally been in, I've been able to tell when some people are going to attempt to scam me. For example I will be attempting to buy prayer potions, at least 40-50% of the time i will be offered attack potions; some people even have the audacity to have both prayer and attack potions in the trading post. I will tell them don't put up attack potions and what do you think happens? I will sometimes spend 10-15 minutes of my time wasted with these players with no morals and so much disregard for others. They even post videos of them scamming money off of others; players who put in endless hours of work to obtain the assets they are willing to trade, only to lose it in seconds. The G.E. will be one of the bigger steps that is needed to weed out the constant attempts at stripping players of their hard work. Thank you for those that agree, and those that took the time to read this.

Jagex,

I have never really written to you guys about anything, but this is just upsetting. When I first heard that RS2 was coming back, you have no idea how happy I became; I looked forward to the OSRS release for weeks. I was twice as happy when I logged on and saw that I was finally back on tutorial island. I hadn't felt so much relaxation and nostalgia in a very long time. As weeks progressed I remember we all worked together to level up and obtain items. I specifically remember random herds of players helping each other out with the Waterfall quest and other quests. We worked it all out as a community, as it should have stayed from the beginning. Now everything is being easily handed to us. I'm slowly losing my nostalgic happiness that I first felt. The feeling I felt as a kid, the feeling of nothing to worry in life.

It's true. Everything is becoming too easy. Some of these players keep mentioning how the G.E. will make it much simpler to obtain quest items and any items in general. What makes me upset is that these kids don't see the point of the game is to explore and make your own decisions, learn from your mistakes, make things for yourself and try out every skill. These kids don't know anything about RS2, the 2d crappy-graphic game that I fell in love with.

I am voting no to G.E. My main concern is the *.*.. I love this game too much to just have it get ruined again. I really hope for the best. I really wish I could do something to save this game, but I feel so hopeless sometimes. I'm trying my best to stay positive and hoping this game continues on strong. I really do hope...

P.S. I miss the old Varrock

My vote is a big NO to grand exchange. The main reason that i quit, was that grand exchange made the game too easy. People often just use that system to make money without having to meet the "buyer, or seller." I beg you not to ruin this PERFECT, nostalgic 2007 version of RS that we who really played at that time begging you to keep. If people are so tired of getting scammed, or think it's so hard to chase the quest items, there must be another sulotion. Why would you even want the quests to be easy. There is a version with Grand exchange already, can't we just keep this 2007 client to be 2007?
Sorry about my bad english, i'm from Sweden.

NO to GE
