Maybe, but I checked and it wasn't a sticky. It should be. I think such info has to be more obvious to a forum browser.

erm peeps.. we are not talking about an insurance idea here (whatever it might have been, didnt read it) we are talking about this idea, plz stay on topic

The original trading system only had one accept screen. While the latest version has two. They have upgraded it, and rather than qucikly accepting a trade you should actually READ what is offered. Im sure most people are more than able to do so. Be greatful that there are actually two screens so YOU can be sure that it is correct.

i know that, but still alot of people get scammed, and i mean a LOT (including me :cry:, thats how i got the idea) so if they upgraded it 1 more time with this, i think that number will be greatly reduced.

 

 

 

if thats so, doesnt that make it well worth the trouble of updating the trading system?

Yes, it would, but I'm sure that doing a better job informing beginners, etiehr in game or in the forums, would yield the same result. I'm sure JAGeX is plenty busy with other updates.

i dont think it would be very hard to program, and if you have just been fishing for 3 hours or something, you are VERY bored, and you wont be paying much attention, thats when the scammer strikes, and you can say bye bye to all your hard work, even if jagex would have warnings for this scam on their website and ingame, (which would probably be more work too) a lot of people will still get scammed (and no, these people CAN read, and they are not morons, they are simply not paying attention at 1 o clock in the morning)

 

 

 

but with this trading system, these people will be forced to see whatever the scammer changes flash for 3 seconds, and theyll be forced to look at the second trade screen for 3 seconds.

 

 

 

if people would still get scammed with this trading system, then they ARE morons, and then they DO deserve it

if someone that is a member thinks this is a good idea, could he/she post it on RS official forums for me??

 

 

 

many thanks if someone does

It's a good idea, don't get me wrong.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But in estimation, I probably make 15 trades a day, and I'm not even a merchant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Each time I buy/sell a random item, I don't want to have to stare at a flashing screen. I already get enough flashiness from those ridiculous ads with the aliens.

isnt that a quite small sacrifice to make to put most scammers out of business?

 

 

 

but perhaps your right, maybe it should only flash when u remove/decrease the quantity of the item

Yes, it's a VERY small sacrifice to stop scammers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Honestly, I don't think your idea needs any changes, and I DO think it should be implemented.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can't really relate to the post-fishing spree boredom, because I don't play for very long at a time. Because of this, I'm not really effected by the trade scams, as I always double check trade screens.

thanks.

 

 

 

yay! another supporter, maybe i should make a supporters list.

looks like my thread isnt so popular anymore, come on people!! tell me what you think about it

if someone that is a member thinks this is a good idea, could he/she post it on RS official forums for me??

 

 

 

many thanks if someone does

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm sorry, you've said this so many times that I must ask: Why don'y you join the official RS forums?

well lpinkus, JAGeX doesnt look at tip.it forums, so for this to be done in the game, it should have to be posted on official RS forums. And im not a member, so i cannot post it there.

 

 

 

and did i post the question of someone posting it on RS forums several times?? because i am truly sorry if i did

I am proud to say that I have never been scammed in this way............... But I fully support the idea! Another alternative is to flash in the middle of the screen in big red letters, COINS REMOVED!

I'm sorry man, I didn't realize that only members can use the official RS forums. I should have been able to deduce that :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Funny, tho, I've been a member for a while now, yet I use the tip.it forums exclusively :)

omg, for all you people saying "this is a stupid idea, if you'd just read you wouldn't get scammed". tell me how this idea is stupid? it'd be good because people would be able to see the change better. but, i can't see how it could be bad in any way, for you guys flaming this, take a little time away from the computor, go do something else, come back when you can acctually be nice to people

Thanks for all the support people, keep em coming, keep em coming.

 

 

 

o and lpinkus, no problem, misunderstandings happen. 8)
