Metal has a point. He should work for Jagex and be dubbed Mod Metal. :P

The real old-schoolers didn't initially vote for the 2006-2007 version of their game back just to transform it into a mere copy of RS3 later on down the road. If I would've known GE would be here, I would've been very reluctant to consider even bringing back 07Scape.

1. Make it so that the GE doesn't formulate, price tag, or set prices (GE values) on items. By doing so, the price can't be easily manipulated, and players won't be coerced into buying or selling at the manipulated "market price" all the time. Also, players will maintain a great degree of control over prices rather than the system telling them a formulated buying or selling price. Instead, the GE or price checker should only provide a price range on an item. That would also eliminate the dreaded hassle of buying or selling at 5% over or under the market price. For example, the price of mind runes would show 3-5 GP instead of 4 GP.

2. Like the TP, the GE should show candidate offers from other players so that players can ultimately decide on the best offer rather than going gung-ho on a totally automated system.

3. Instead of a totally automated system, the GE should have a "Buy from Player X" and "Sell to Player X" option. Afterwards, the money or items can be collected from the collection box or the GE.

4. If players need to price an item, it should be done in the same manner as the GE. It should only include a price range (the minimum and maximum price) without giving an absolute value in a similar fashion as OS Buddy's price checker.

5. The only time the mean price, absolute value, or GE value of an item should be implemented is with Coin Share and Loot Share. Otherwise, buying and selling items should be based on a price range and players' willingness.

6. In the event of a newly-released item, again, no GE-suggested price or market value should be given. It should be entirely up to the players to determine the price range as will all items.

7. Lastly, make the GE accessible and available in every bank rather than in just one location. People claim the GE is convenient, but nothing is convenient about being limited to trading in one spot whereas the TP was in all banks.
Yes! Get it done! :D

players will just have to put up with the fact Ge is coming to the game, so once it,s in, then I'll probably play it and can't wait to see what else is added, cause im sure more and more and more updates will get added to it. Im happy Jagex for keeping the game fresh, updated and fun, good job :)

A friendly reminder to keep things civil here. Disagreeing is fine, but there's no need to flame each other, call people stupid (and various other synonyms), etc.

Just a friendly reminder. Thanks!
