DevBlog: Grand Exchange Tweaks
Quick find code: 380-381-141-65557333
First off, I am not against the grand exchange but I do feel it shouldn't be used in Old School. Now obviously it's passed a poll which had a record amount of votes leading me to suspect some sort of jiggery pokery, especially because the Old School team really pushed it onto us without giving the trading post much time. They more or less made the trading post seem bigger in order to disappoint players and increase popularity of the GE. However I guess there is no point arguing about that now.
Rant gone. It's passed and now we need to refine it so it doesn't completely mess us up even more than expected.
Location:
Falador: It'd be nice, however trading was pushed out from there years ago and I can't see where it could be placed without messing up the look of the park or completely remodelling the park.
Varrock: It's well established, however people associate it with rs3 so there could be people hating that.
Every bank: Now this would make it too easy, if we are the have a GE we should at least show some effort to go to a location and socialise with each other.
Everybank + a central location: I seriously can't imagine the central location having any/many players there. There are many banks that are closer to teleports and people would just use those. RIP Forums
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

Herbs:
Grimy herbs last had 52% support when you polled it, this isn't even a near miss. I understand the need to show which herbs people are buying but when you're buying herbs you never really want to clean them, you only want to create potions with them. There are a few cases were cleaning/identifying herbs has been profitable but it's not worth introducing grimy herbs just for that.
You could possibly make it so herbs have to be identified then cleaned in order to be used in potions, but that'd basically be the same item and would be redundant.
Jewelry decanter:
It's a lovely idea, I'd love a guy who charges a bit of money for this. I'd also like this to be added as spell (lunar or standard).
Potion decanter:
We already have one of these, so I feel this guy is more redundant. However I was surprised to find he doesn't charge money for his services.
Note: Where will the decanters go if the GE is available in every bank? RIP Forums
