This game is all about time. The more time you have, the more patient you are the better you do.

The longer something takes, the "harder" it's considered to be. Buyign and selling is a huge part of this game and it's very time consuming. MAKING BUYING AND SELLING EASIER MAKES THE GAME EASIER OVERALL.

I do not want an easier game. I don't want EOC or RS3. I want it to be challenging just like it used to be. Having a big machine that spits gp at you when you insert your items is not cool.

The only reason people think there is a "problem" is because they've had the GE and got used to that. Back in the day hardly anyone complained about spam on world 1 or having to treck all over rs to buy or sell. It's a challenge, it's the game. Please don't change it.


W1 was Trading for f2p and yes was in Varrock, but W2 was in fally and p2p and was alot easier place to use than current location.

But to those that use the "I want it to be a challenge and therfor no to Trading solution" or "I want the game to stay original" Did you also say no to rooftops, motherlode mine and the wildy update? And the up and comming new skill.


I don't necessarily want the game to stay original. But I want it to be challenging. Agility is still a pain, mining is still slow. But yes I was very worried they'd make the exp too fast. So far they've done a good job not ruining it for me personally even with all the new updates. So props to them.

I can live with a trade solution if they make it exactly like zyb and you still have to meet up to trade. But a big machine you put your stuff into and it just disappears (the GE basically) is no good imo.

Well they want a SOLUTION when there is no PROBLEM! They create too much just like rs3 and boom you ruin the real RS feel! I say NO GE or auction house!!! You have somthing good here! Keep F2p open and let people get membership for more features just like you always have. Also let all paying members Play RuneScape Classic!

@anyJMODS
Will there be another Poll on the final outcome? Or is this it?


If they manage to minipulate a GE this game is dead and I am unsubscribing. I feel like this is the first time Jagex is doing somthing right with F2P and think F2P should be open forever to draw new members in... that's real RS. But then I come to find they are screaming up ways to Ruin this RS experience just like they did with rs3... it's honestly sad :(

Motherlode might not be the best xp, but it is alot easier to do than the granite mining i did back in the day to get 99. Rooftops well Seers is very close to xp i got an hour on ape, and is also a fair bit easier to use than the rope swing on ape ;) The wildy update made it a fair bit easier/faster to get suplies, if you are willing to take the risk of pk'ers. what I am trying to say is, we already had updates that imo made the game a less challenge than it was original. I am not complaining about the above mention updates. But I can't understand the arguement that a Ge is gonna make the game a less challenge, sorry. Trading to me aint a skill, it might be considered as such by merchants.

I personally would love to see a Ge on osrs, but if that is not gonna happen. Then atleast move the trading back to fally, where it original was, and use the forums here on this site.

And no matter what, I think the safety of not having to go to an offsite for our trading needs out weights the "challenge of trading between players" And then the bonus of less players getting scammed ;)

But I guess we will no more in a week or 2 *still curious to how Jagex read this poll"


I wouldn't say it's easier to do motherlode as mining granite is double as fast expwise. I also got 99 on my old main "Laaawrence" back in 2007 in the desert with pouches. I also got 99 agility at ape atoll, got 99 rcing through the abyss alone, 99 thieving on ardy knights. I basically already did it all the "hard way". Ape atoll is less clicks than the rooftops and I don't remember it being more painful otherwise. It's still really slow :)

But I still saw what GE did to the game back in the day. And I didn't like it. It was one of the main reasons I ended up quitting. I am currently really enjoying OSRS and wouldn't want something similar to happen again, thats all.

trading face to face is a very big part of the game you should just consider it a skill. putting items into a machine and bang getting money or the opposite was fast but it made the game easier. making something easier is not always better. that is not the oldschool way. i hope jagex don't follow the same failed path as rs3 or EOC went. try something new and leave it be.
