The vote isn't rigged or flawed by ppl voting on multiple accounts, or encouraging votes with in-game rewards.

The vote is rigged/flawed by taking our vote from before
wherein we said the trade solution should still invove face-to-face trade but offers appearing in the post should only be from ppl who are actually online
and using it to release the Trading Post in the form of a bad joke or a wish gone wrong. We clearly wanted to avoid the issue **bez has of showing offers by people who can't be reached, "dead offers". You clearly made the Trading Post rampant with dead offers and instead of fixing it began polling the GE. Even the thought of fixing this, previously question #1 after the GE, was removed from the poll before it went live.

You have to know that some percentage of players are voting yes simply because they want a trading system that works! well the Trading Post needed a hotfix for it to work and give players the chance to play the game with the trade improvements we already voted for. The last paragraph of the Trading Post release post was a slap in the face; with hidden players' offers it is NOT the solution we voted for.

You gave us the Trading Post with one arm tied behind its back and said, "Hey, everyone! Look what you voted for, a broken trading system! Now is that what you REALLY want or do you want a GE that actually does what it says it does?"

The gloves are off.

Dear OSRS Dev Team,

I have had many people in my clan and other friends that have admitted to having 5 or more other runescape members accounts. They said that they've voted with multiple accounts to make the G/E pass the poll. I can't help but think that RWT Gold Farming websites and other companies are aspiring to do the same. I think this poll is too far rigged. 60k voters in 4 days is impossible. 30k people player OSRS, its only passing because 60k people voted..... please realize this fallacy. :"""""""c

Sincerely,

A player that has spent his life on this game since 2006.
Everybody 'round me saying I should relax 'cuz I've been going hard 'till my eyes roll back but,
all I wanna do is forget about my past and smoke a'lil ranarr, really nothing too drastic..

I really hope this GE vote won't pass but seeing how the voting poll works most times people just vote yes to almost anything and everything.
Voting no to GE, when GE was added it started to kill OSRS..I really don't like how 07 is becoming more and more easy like EOC sooner or later it will just become what people chose not to play which makes no sense at all


agreeeeeed

OSRS is SUPPOSED TO BE H.A.R.D!
If you want an easy game go play EoC where the G/E brings in tons of cash for everyone which makes every skill so easy to level and obtain items.... it makes the game far easier to play and far easier to get your levels up.... being high leveled will be a thing of the past.... just like how every1 on EoC has 200 lv accounts and they all have 60bil.....

I loved OSRS only because Im a maxed player... there aren't that many of us... its like an elite club....

If starbucks started handing out free coffee or frappacinos for $1 or 1 Quid, then it wouldn't be so pristine as is was before.

If they just start handing out party hats all the time they will devalue... oh wait they did (just an example of what could happen)

OH HEY EVERYBODY! lets all force ELYSIAN TO CRASH down to 100m, then everyone can afford one! yay!.

I would have no problem with the G/E if it was ON-LINE TRADING ONLY!!!!!
I would have no problem with the G/E if they create an item sink for Bandos amours, armadyl amours, and god swords. too many in the game. NONE OF WHICH are leaving the game = too much money in the game = bad for game = too many people have money.

OSRS was supposed to be like IN REAL LIFE (irl) back in the day, how everything started off with no technology... now its advancing like we have cars and iPhones... its OSRS. Change the freaking name if you're going to continuously implement new content all of the time.

go play EoC if you like updates.... they get them every Tuesday c;

@BMW Motorsports, there is a total of 46 maxed players on OSRS, with many following very close, and ge has nothing to due with EOC. Jagex first released G.E. on November 26th, 2007 and it was a big turn around for the game, more people played because of the G.E. It doesn't matter. OSRS wasn't made because it's "hard" it was made because that's what the community wanted, and the community gets what the community wants. And because you're stating you are maxed, only means you have really no point in playing the game anyways, so your opinion doesn't matter anymore.

Vote yes for the G.E. with out it merchers and over pricers run the economy. No one wants that.
