If someone is selling 25k lobs on the Auction House and I want 1k I want to be able to still buy from the person selling the 25k. So I get my 1k lobsters he gets some coins and has 24k lobsters left over.

Please make it like this.

Looks okay, only question I have for now is, If I'm buying something, do I get to pick how many I buy? Or do I HAVE to buy everything the seller is selling?


That is where the engagement between players which is so important to our community comes in. If you want to buy just part of an offer, you can easily contact the other player and do some negotiating.


Well that sucks.

I can't see common sense in it. That basically makes it pointless to put offer like 200k flax, because no one is going to buy that many. I really think that it would be better just to add buy-x option.

I mean seriously, player interaction?
- Hey can I buy 10k flax?
- Sure

That is very disappointing...

Mat K, would this system work with Lootshare?


We can do a loot share system based on this sure.


How? As there's no guide prices

Please put in a buy X option from like a 200k stack. Maybe I only want 20 flax.

So far it seems people are mostly opposed to offline trading.
Remove the feature to trade offline and I could see this project being a success.


The survey we held shows the opposite, in that 68% of votes wanted some sort of functionality to trade when offline. Perhaps we could limit offers to staying in the auction house for no longer than a week or something?

Im guessing though could track the average trade price of items like **b does, and use that for lootshare points? prob wouldn't work very well though.


Yeah, people would sell useless things for 2.147B and the average would skyrocket. I don't know how they would go about this Auction House with lootshare.


Sure you could list something useless for 2.147B but nobody would buy it.

If they only track completed offers that 2.147b offer doesn't do anything but sit there forever.

I'm sure Jagex could easily see these fake offers and take action against accounts that try this too often.

We can already get muted for swearing or banned from the game for breaking more serious rules, perhaps A.H. market manipulation can be punished by being barred from using the A.H. for a period of time?

Provided of course the A.H. passes a poll.
Ha ha, made you look ;)
