I don't like it, it looks like a compromise between the people who want GE and the people who do want GE. What we end up with here is a mediocre GE as a compromise.

I don't want the GE personally, but I think it'd be best if you at least did an official survey poll on the Grand Exchange.

Well Im canceling my Membership, This is just the grand exchange All over again.

Having no G.e Brings so many great things to the game.

1. Being able to get items/materials cheaper

2. Merching

3. People Interacting

4. Makes game more hardcore (not as easy)

5. Botters with tons of the same item will cause drop in prices making it harder for legit players to make money

6. You just killed your auto typer

7. Items will be 1 solid price what everyone else is sell them for

Your taking away one of the best parts about old school runescape so sad.

Will return When Taken out.

When a player wants to buy an item, they will open an interface and search for the item they wish to buy, They will then be presented with a list of sales which show the price of the trade, quantity of items to be traded, how long the trade has been up and who the trader is.


^ Directly from Dev Blog.


The point of this thread;

The proposed system will create a platform for *SELLERS* to post their items for x-value and x-amount.

The proposed system will NOT cater towards offline trading, the merchandise has to be searched from a list of active items for sale by *SELLERS*.

*BUYERS* CANNOT post items. I repeat BUYERS CANNOT POST ITEMS. They can only purchase items instantly that are at the moment listed, no future buy offers will exist.

1. You can still get items cheaper with this sytem. You can add the player and negotiate with them if you want. There are also no market prices like the GE.

2. You can still merc*, this is basically an in-game ***** system.

3. Player interaction is complete bulls***, the most that is ever exchanged is "ty" "ty." Quit lying to yourself/cherrypicking for arguments.

4. Are you serious?

5. They have been banning thousands of bots recently. I'm assuming you didn't read the entire thing, because this isn't a GE and items aren't sold instantly when someone puts up an offer. You have to search for the item and accept a trade from a certain individual.

6. Their autotyper was doa (dead on arrival).

7. Um, not really, like I said this is just like ***** and it doesn't have one steady price. Go read the entire thing instead of instantly complaining that you're quitting even though you aren't going to.


Aside from that, I'm glad to see that once again I am laughing in the faces of the whiners who say "0mg g3 c0m1ng to 07" constantly even though this is nothing like a GE.

What about if the item you are trying to buy has no sell offers? Can you put up a buy offer? Either I missed it or you can only put up sell offers and look through sell offers to buy. Maxed Sept 24th, 2015 - 134th to max

Please remove offline trading and add a tax fee for each trades since this system is more convenient than W1, this way people will have the alternative of fast and hassle free trade by paying a bit more or instead going to W1 and pay a bit less (no tax) and still get the item they want by investing more time.


It definitely needs a tax otherwise there will be very few trades which happen outside of the auction house.
