I'm saddened by the clear and obvious biases Jagex has shown with the implementation of the GE, if your motto really is 'the player decides', you should have let us choose the this system on an aspect to aspect basis, instead of essentially an initial 'all or nothing'.

Also, I think Jagex needs to realise that they will lose many subs (including myself) by introducing the GE. If instead they would have done this step by step, instead of this all or nothing approach, people wouldnýt feel too much forced to pick a side.

Regardless, i think such a drastic change of the way the entire game works should have a larger % criteria than 75%.

It's not hard at all without a G.E. You already have the trading post, the only people who want the GE are the people who never played without it. The whole point of oldschool is not the old combat system, theres already legacy, go play that if you want a older game with the GE. Stop trying to ruin the game. People want it so they can mess with prices just like they do in modern RS, then later they just RLW their GP.

Yes, I do believe that the combat system was the main reason behind the creation of Old-School Servers - if my memory serves correctly. I would also appreciate it if you wouldn't try and direct players to certain servers. My decision to come to OSRS was purely due to combat-related issues, and if you have ever tried using Legacy Mode against another player using Evolution of Combat, you most likely understand my predicament.

I enjoy minigames, and after struggling to make the adjustment - and eventually quitting for a long period of time - I came here to OSRS. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you wouldn't speak as if the game was created solely for you.

Jagex would lose a lose a lot more players if the G.E. doesn't pass.

I highly doubt it, since the fallback options are pretty much what everyone wants, and fixes 90% of all the issues everyne has with current trading.

it's just bizarre that jagex decided not to approach change in a gradual way, but start with the nuclear option, then if that fails, go for a watered version. Instead of the more obvious other way around
