I'm not sure if you're serious or an idiot. Firstly, how do you think a GE/Trading Post system works? Someone still has to go and cut the yew logs and put up an offer for me to be able to buy them, they're not just spawned into the game. The game is still multi-player whether i have to spend half an hour in W1 to find them or whether i can go to a Trading Post and purchase them...


No you are wrong. The economy isn't based off beads. Ok fine with the AH maybe you can now get 5k for your set of beads! Great, fantastic. That has no impact on the "economy" because there is no real demand for it. Take something there is demand for...say Sharks for exmaple. A merc* clan can easily decide in the morning..."Hey lets guy buy all the sharks that are on the AH right now and sell them tonight buy increase the price by 200 each." They can do that because all it would take is a few clicks. They economy would not be stable and would not be good for the game. Use your brain for that one.

As for my other point...obivously yes someone chopped the yew logs or fished the sharks that you would buy from the system but it creates the illusion that they do come out of no where. There is no sense of community when buy things from an Auction House but there is when you buy them from a player. I'm not saying it will kill the game instantly but overtime I guarantee it will decress the quality of the game.

I personally would rather have a system where u can search for offers on the trading post and add that person to talk to them then be able to trade via pm, obviously it would have to be restricted to both the players being in a bank for the trade to work though.

Crew you are completely missing my point its not about what item its about IF I NEED something it shouldnt matter what time of day im on PEAK hours or not IT should NOT take Hours to sell or buy things THATS THE POINT!!!


My point isn't about the specific item either. And I disagree that if you need something you should be able to get it instantly. That kills a huge part of the game and makes Runescape a complete click-fest.

Time & it allows other non bot players to start merchanting without the required amount of time to sell the items. At the moment, People have to choose whether they want to spend time merchanting at a bank or skilling to level themselves up. With the auction house they can do both and it makes it unfair for those who cannot/do not know how to merchant. I believe that there is no problem with the Trade. It is a problem with the bots as well as the amount of gold that transfers between accounts with RWT or just multi-log gold farming. I believe that adding in an AH is just a blanket covering a problem that Jagex needs to remove.


Don't put a band-aid on it... fix it.

What you don't get is that right now it may take merchanters a full day to buy up enough of an item to impact the economy. With an auction house it will take minutes if not seconds...Great you can now buy 100 iron ore in the click of a button at the expense of a ruined economy which leads to a ruined game :)
