Tell us your views.

The G.E. is great. Now I don't have to stand around to sell off my extra stuff. It's made merchanting as a profession obscelete but that just encourages people to actually develop their skills instead of just trading stuff.

I actually really like the Grand Exchange. I like how it makes selling and buying things so much easier. Like you don't have to be in a certain area to find buyers or sellers where it's more luck of the draw you find someone selling or buying a particular item you want. If what I'm trying to say makes sense lol I can't really say anything for the PKing aspects. I've rarely ever attempted PKing. Most of the time that I would, I'd end up dying.

I love the Grand Exchange. For me, it's the easiest way to buy and sell things. Before the G.E. came out, I hated having to sell or buy anything, due to the way a lot of buyers and sellers would behave during trades. The G.E. made it so there was no haggling involved. It also made it easier on those who didn't have the time or the inclination to collect a large amount of resource materials. Those with a smaller amount of an item often had a hard time selling them except at the absolute lowest price to merchants. Now they are able to put the smaller amount on the G.E. and get the same amount per item as people who are selling vast amounts of the item. I've never been into Pk'ing, but I do hope that the planned update to make pk'ing worlds turns out the way pk'ers would like it to. They will never get what they had before, the looting of items dropped by their opponent, but hopefully Jagex makes the reward system to their liking.

I love the Grand Exchange update. It's probably one of the best thing that has happened to Runescape. I was able to make 10m in 6 months through the Grand Exchange. I started with absolutely nothing because I was hacked and I was able to build my way up from nothing to 10m and I hardly did anything. I had to spend a week getting 200k to start off though.

I've quit Runescape, but I'll give my opinion on these updates. I didn't mind much when the wilderness was gone. In fact, I would spend hours at a time runecrafting through the abyss so the pros actually outweighed the cons for me. But, when the grand exchange came out, I was furious. The price of nature runes dropped nearly 80 gold within weeks and I felt that runecrafting wasn't worth the time anymore. Eventually, I got fed up with merchanting taking a hit, which is one of the main reasons I quit.
