Basically Id want a ingame zyb(tradesite) just see what others are offering and selling, and the ability to see if they're online and to add them

AH from previous poll seemed fine as it is

but by failing the poll there will be no additional trading system so they don't want to vote no, and by voting yes they're voting yes on something they don't know how it will turn out.
This.

You biased the poll by putting this in the blog. You should poll at least both this and the AH with a tweak or two.

The problem with compromising the Auction House idea is that some people wanted us to compromise it one direction, and others in another direction. As there is such a range of demands for what the community wants from a trading system we think that putting the whole process in the hands of the community is the best way forward.
Can't you just make an Auction House without offline trading?

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.

Couldn't you just add a question like this or something and see what % it gets.

Question: Would you like to see the grand exchange added to osrs as it was in November 2007.

This.

What about all the players that wanted offline trading?

The trading solution should work only when both parties are online. 32% (6207 votes)

Your trades should only be available for a limited period after you have gone offline.
11% (2223 votes)


The trading solution should work when you are either online or offline. 57% (10974 votes)


There's no such thing as "all the players" wanting offline trading. Just a vocal minority on the forums... most don't care.

It's just that progress should not be made on an account while offline. Being able to flip and merc* with offline trading is making a lot of profit without having to be online; the same as merc* bots, which we are trying to eradicate in the first place.

This just goes to show how different individuals feel about the trading solution. Some want one thing, others want another. There isn't going to be an easy solution to this.

I think the community being so split just says that the polls shouldn't be done this way.. People who want a trading solution but not the bare minimum (in game ***** price guide) are forced into voting yes because they do want a trade update, just not that one, they're voting yes without knowing what they're really voting on. So when you say you're letting the community decide what's best that's not true due to the way the polls are set up it's in favour of one side of the community which I don't think is really fair, you say it's putting it in the hands of the community to figure out the best way, but really you're just forcing it on us. I hope this makes sense lol

Like I said I don't think any sort of GE/AH will ever pass because the community isn't just split on that, they're split on just about everything that makes it work too. So maybe it is for the best just to get it over and done with and not waste any more time on it.

Errr.. 57% wanted offline trading, that's not a vocal minority.
