Question: Should we introduce a trading post where you can post trade offers which will be visible to everyone? Offers will only appear when the seller is online and you will need to trade through the existing trading system.

If this passes and I make an offer on it and then for some unforeseen reason need to log off will my offer be deleted and I have to repost or will it become visible once more?

Question: If players' trades are visible when they are online, should they be visible for more than 6 hours?

As this question follows right after the question concerning if offers can be seen while offline, has it been miss worded ?


We can have it so that when you reconnect your offers appear again, and yes in that question that is a typo.... prolly the worst typo possible. I'll change that.

I agree with the first reply of this topic. Allow the offline purchasing to a maximum of 30 minutes. This will allow those players who just missed the sale to get their desired items without having to wait for the other player's return. Also this would allow players to hop worlds while also being able to buy/sell. :D

"In essence, players will be able to post up trade offers which every other player can see. These offers will not remain posted when an account is offline and you will have to meet up to trade through the existing trading system."

This sounds like a specific fan site OSRS Price Guide except that this automatically deletes your offers and requires you to visit a specific place in game to post those offers. If the vote on having offers complete without you having to do the trades in person doesn't pass, you should not have this trading post at all as it would simply be an inferior version of what the aforementioned fan site has. Unless the trading post gives guide prices for items in which case it can serve some limited purpose for coinshare?

Can we add some new way of making people vote? When people see it's an external thing people aren't really voting. Not everybody's ideas I feel are being heard. Some people just click a button and go right in the game and don't check to see about polls. Why don't we make it so you have to vote on this important poll to get into the game. Also it'll stop some bots for a few days. Idk maybe we can put it into the game the rs3. Don't freak out I said rs3 you won't melt like me throwing a bucket of water on you. Get my oz reference :)


We are working on getting the polls added to the game.

If it doesn't remain posted when you go offline, then hopping worlds would be really annoying. They HAVE to stay available for at least 10-15 minutes after you go offline because what if you just dc or are hopping worlds?
