Im NOT supporting this even the slightest bit! this completely ruins the old school feel of OSRS.. going to world 301 and trading with people advertising their wares is what makes OSRS OSRS... if this gets changed, then we are just taking further steps towards EoC (which i loathe). if this goes through, im sorry, but you lost a subscriber. im sure the lose of one person's membership isnt much and isnt much of a threat, but i want you to know how strongly i feel against this decision.

Please reconsider.

Thank you.

You should be able to set a buy an offer with a specific price and quantity much like you would a sell offer. When someone is selling that item your buy iffer will automatically buy it if it as at your buy price or for anything unfer your buy price or at the sellers price. So for example if your buy offer was a whip at 1.5m and somone put in a sell offer for 1.4, yould atou buy it for 1.4.

If you can buy items directly from it will never support that. As well as if the interface is not redone to the older style. So many UI changes have been made directly pulled off the main game when you could easily pull the interfaces/sprites off Old School's files.

G.E. ruined the economy.. the ONLY!! keyword ONLY!! reason it was even added was to assist in Combating Real World Trading (RWT). Along with the Assist System, Removal of Free Trade, Removal of Wilderness, and a few other updates I do not remember.

The only changes you honestly need are the following.

1. A better chat filter system which also filters the text above head. Allow comma support or space support to separate keywords. As well as a cleanup on how this is all added it looks quite messy in my opinion and rushed.

2. Ability to see chat of person currently within your trade or whom has trade you within the "Trade" screen. So even players not yet in your trade.

Please do not make massive game changing updates. I could careless if you throw in 1000's of updates into this game, but huge ones like this take their toll in the long run.

Updates like these prevent the players from interacting more with each other and ultimately destroy the community. When will you guys learn back in 2006-2007 there was 250k+ player sure half of them were RWTers, but the community back then was spot on for a game to have. The game lost that community in 2007 when the RWT updates where put into place! Then the G.E. just destroy the economy I mean come on many items gained 100% - 10,000% their current values and gold is worth nothing. Skilling became a breeze and the graphic overhauls are so bad its near impossible to play on most co...


Coultn't have said it better myself. this MASSIVE update is horrific and completely goes against what 2007 OSRS is all about!!! If we wanted something like the G.E. we would play EoC.

I dont really like this idea no matter how you look at it, it removes a huge socail part of the game in a way. I like the autotyper idea that you guys implement. However if this does pass I dont really like the Idea of it looking like the GE. Make the design more unique and why only 6 slots? I think people should also be able to offer at whatever price and buy at whatever price with no limits.

a recently sold list or average amount would also be really useful.

As for the time to expire I think an hour after logout is good. In the current system you must be online so even a hour is good.
