Is there an estimated time resizeable mode will be ready and will we have the ability to control the camera with 'WASD' when it arrives?

- Thankyou

WASD would require them to modify the way the chat box works. Requiring to press enter before typing, which I support but it depends on whether they will devote time to it, and they'd have to poll it. Hopefully we get an ETA on resizeable in the next few hours with the March ahead post.

Will the trade limits ever be lifted fully? Its kind of annoying to have limits on how much you buy of each material. Even 25,000 adamantite ore seems too low. Since there is no trade limit on face-to-face trading, why should we be penalized with limits on the Grand Exchange? If one of the purposes of the Grand Exchange is to help players buy items in bulk without the hassle of running around trying to find people, doesn't it seem kind of contradictory to then put limits on how much of each material one can buy?

Here are some tweaks that the GE could definitely use.

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.

Some limits are still ridiculous.
12k Zulrah scales? That's like 700k gp.. Whilst 2k torstol limit is 10million gp.
50k+ zulrah scales sounds better

Also I can only buy like 250 of each super potion?

C'mon loosen the limits up a little. And is there a place btw with all the limits? (wiki's list is incomplete)
