Dev Blog: The Grand Exchange

Although I'd be perfectly happy with an updated and improved tradingpost (like no off-line offers showing, automated trading & buy offers), I also wouldn't mind a GE, so I'll probably be voting in favour.
That said:
And as for being afraid of merchanting?
Oh yes, that may be possible through the GE.
I just hope that those players who are afraid of this only, will realise that it's happening without a GE as well, gosh, you've just got to check the price history curves of items at Zybez and you'll see it clearly.
Also, just check the offers on the tradingpost now: people offer their items at lower prices and higher prices all the time, isn't that merchanting then? I've seen things devaluate quickly; it's not the GE itself doing that.
Please don't blame the tools

I'd just love it if we didn't get a centralised GE (if we do after all I'd vote for Fally
), but I'd much more prefer it if the trading posts we have in banks throughout RS now were changed into GE-desks.
Not only could you then access your trades from nearly everywhere in game, but the banks themselves would not be emptied either, which I saw as a major drawback from the earlier GE.

Question: Should we introduce the Grand Exchange? The trading post would be removed and replaced with a Grand Exchange building north-west of Varrock. A 'Collect' option would also be added to every bank.
The Trading post works fantastic and the updates you suggested for it make it sound even better!
I just really don't want to see the merchanting clans again destroying the economy.
Question: If question 1 fails, should we update the Trading Post to hide offers from players who've set their private chat to Friends or Off?
Question: If question 1 fails, should the Trading Post let you click a player's offer to send them a trade request, allowing you to trade with them without meeting up? They would need to be in a bank on the same world as you.
Question: Should we add a basement to the Warriors' guild containing a bigger cyclops that has a chance of dropping dragon defenders? To access the basement you would need to show Kamfreena a rune defender to get a key. You would still need to pay the same token fee as you pay to access the cyclops on the top floor.
Question: Should we increase the number of available bank slots for both free-to-play and members by 200?
Question: Should we remove the 'Harpoon' option on the fishing spots found in Piscatoris?
Answer: N/A
Question: Should we make messages from players that you add to your ignore list disappear?
Question: Should saplings of tradeable seeds be made tradeable?
Part1.
Answer:
Absolutely

Yes.

Answer:
Yes. I cannot see how this would help an illegitimate player but I do see how a legit player could use this.

Answer:
No. Even as a pure range I do not think this would be right.
