The g.e. was originally a Player submitted idea, which was aimed at allowing players to buy and sell their items more efficiently than simply scouring through the trade forums or standing in Falador park coping with the spam.

I envisioned it as an in game access to the already thriving marketplace forums, which would allow me to focus more on playing than opening another browser window to find a trade offer I was interested in and hoping the other player was still on line.

Agreed.

Took out most of the message (quote). I always loved the forums and back in 2004-2007 it was massive! Our current Old School forums is so malnourished barely anyone is using it. I wouldn't care to see an online version of our forums marketplace, but would hate to see a G.E. which was originally RWT implementation. If they would focus on improving what we currently have they could fix the massive problems in this game. Instead they are combating problems with more problems.. this is exactly what they did in late 2007 and now they are repeating themselves again.

I feel I may actually quit this game for good this time if polls like these keep reappearing.

This is pretty much my perfect GE.

Let players set the price, auction house, see who you're trading with aswell as competitive pricing.

Only thing is, is there any way we can filter out results by price, maybe most recent (the most recent 20), etc? Otherwise I can imagine the auction list thing being extremely long.

Something else I would really like is a bid system, that's one of the main advantages of an auction house imo and it wouldn't really feel like a proper auction house without some way of bidding. An option for players to either make it a bid (with a starting price) or a set price would be perfect.

I got to give Jagex credit where it is due, auction house has worked great in games like WoW, SWTOR etc. This is a lot better option they have presented then what I expected.

That being said, due to our bot problem and this system enabling them further, I will be voting no. The selling of items offline is simply ridiculous.

You'll have to modify this further if you think your going to get an 80% vote.
