You guys are so scared at polling the GE because you dont want it but i bet it would beat ever single trading solution you guys put in a poll everyday so please just poll it...

The only reason we haven't polled the GE is because we don't think it would pass. What you will see from this poll is that if you vote yes for everything, the solution will be very similar to a GE.

i don't think a poll takes much effort,you only get more information about what the community wants or not,you don't listen to the players again jagex,going this direction heads straight away to the eoc.

Them not polling the GE = heading to EoC? Not sure I read that right.

its impossible that any of these updates will go above 75%. So the majority of players will be disappointed because a minority(25-35%) didn't what the update. Just make that you need 51% for the update to pass because this will most likely be worse than it is at the moment

i like the trading solution so far but why dont you make it like this :

Banker gets a new option called
[Trade universal]
you will see a screen where you can look up/sell/buy items once you find a item matching your requirements you will ask them to trade the player selling the items will get a notivication saying :
[PlayerA is trying to be ITEM please accept]
and then the trading screen will open with the player
[Both players need to be online and out of any mini-game or wilderness]

The biggest problem according to these post is whether to allow offline trading or not. Personally there is middle ground for that argument. It would be ridiculous to not have offers stay up after logging off because logging off due to afk is not that uncommon (restroom, minor chores.. etc). However, it would also be ridiculous to have the offline post for multiple hours because that would encourage merchanting similar to ge. Solution [b]Should a player log off, their post should remain ingame for a maximum of 30 minutes and if they log back on before 30 minutes then their post will remain and this cycle would repeat until the player logs off and stays offline for over 30 minutes.

I think all we need is a system in which a play can say I am selling X for Y, and all who want to trade specifically that can see it. The offline part isn't too significant to me, I just want the ability to know with absolute certainty that I will not be trading for 10x less of an item than I want, that I am not paying for a very similar looking item and that I am not meeting someone in a PvP world. I would be totally happy with a single point in which I could say, for example. I am trading 1k nats for 230k gp, and I just have to stay there for as long as I want that offer to be up.

Trading should not be limited to using the trading screen and meeting up with people on potentially dangerous areas, basically. It's too open to mistakes / scammers / lurers and too favourable towards bots.
