That being said, I've looked at your stats and by looking at them I don't think that you even trade much at all in osrs. Maybe go get 99 herblore, like I did and sell your potions and after that we'll talk again :)


Lmao you have got to be kidding me right. You think your opinion is more valuable than mine because you bought 99 prayer?
Lets see you get pvm drops and try to sell them, ive bought more potions for training and pvm then you have probably made, bones for 99 prayer, chinchompas for range, runes for magic, etc. all without using an autotyper. Yeah you're right, sitting at a bank making potions all day and ripping buyers off with ridiculous price offers on zbz is totally a challenge.
Don't try and pull the stats card on me.


Hahah, you sound like I got 99 prayer rofl...

I don't know what everyone is saying but most people did not come back to Old School for the "player interaction." I came back because I loved this game and I enjoyed pking and the old combat/experience system. I have junk building up in my bank because, to be fair, I'm simply too lazy to stand in one place for hours waiting for one person to respond to the post I put up on *****. In my opinion, this will only enhance the Old School experience. In a game like Runescape, instant gratification is just as important as eventual fulfillment.

awesome idea people of the osrs team!!!

but first there are some things that this needs in my opinion to be called a auction house.
there needs to be a bidding system. one where there may be a reserve or no reserve.
it would work with only 1 world, and that would be the world ur in. to avoid extremely long waits, and other things that would make it go extremely long.

second I think every person on osrs should have a buyers/owners page. where if ur in the auction house and you see ****, selling/buying xxx, if ur not interested in that but it may be similar to your item of wanting, you could click on his name, and his buyers/owners page would show up and show all the things hes buying or selling, and possibly fulfill his , or your needs. that would make player interaction so much more involved, and helping players out.

that's all I got and I hope you guys see this post, and take my listed ideas into account, and poll the ideas of myn, and others with wonderful and helpful ideas!!!!

looking good osrs team!~!!

There's one thing of improving the wheel sorta speak, this is just reinventing it.

Get rid of automatic and overnight trading - just make your own **b trading board and more people will be happy with that than giving the extreme instant gratification people their way and saying ***** you to the people who are here for Old School .


So you're saying you want people to sit and auto-type for 2 hours trying to get a trade when they could get it in a matter of minutes? I know I wouldn't lol.

I think this is a good compromise. Would rather not make trading easier, but I'd WAY rather have this than the G.E.. The reason you can't put the G.E. in 07 is cause it would make it way too easy to get all the items you want for quests, clue scrolls, bossing, etc.. making skills less useful and obscure areas more ignored.

I think we should also have a Neopets-esque player shop system on the RS website where we can list all the item's we're selling in our own "shop" and you can search all shops at once for an item you're looking for (you'd still have to contact the seller in-game)

The majority of the players voted for a trading solution, so making it kindoff like you are trying to spoil the fun for the majority instead of the other way around...


There was no vote, it was a survey. And there is no fun in autotrading. There is fun in finding a buyer/seller because thats actually playing the game instead of having a bot do it for you. Many people use bots on runescape, doesn't mean they should automate the game for you or hand out free xp. If they had a poll to make anything easier do you really think itd fail the poll? Even if it was bad for the integrity of the game?
A lot of people dont care about the integrity of the game - only what gets them to endgame quicker so they can get bored and quit. Look at the whole fiasco with nmz.
