Trade button improvements.

I'm tired of being scammed because my finger moves faster than my brain does. It happens so often to me, I see that they removed a huge chunk of cash and I go to press decline but I've already clicked accept.

 

 

 

RuneScape has to continuously upgrade trading to make it more safe. I would be suggesting this on the runescape forums, but I'm not a member at the moment. Here's the next upgrade they should do. It would take about like 10 minutes to program.

 

 

 

Making the accept buttons (and/or decline buttons) so that they do one of the following:

 

 

 

1. Don't activate until a full click has happened.

 

Basically, what I mean by this is that you push the mouse button down, but the mouse button has to be pulled up before it completes the accepting action. That is what happened when I got scammed: I pushed the mouse button down and kept it down trying to drag off of it. It didn't work. This would be harder to program probably. Plus, it wouldn't be as effective as my next solution.

 

 

 

2. Make the buttons so that they must be double clicked.

 

Lots of things in computers are single clicked nowadays. Especially if you play RuneScape and/or use the internet a lot. The only thing that is double clicked is icons.

 

 

 

3. Make a delay before you can accept.

 

If an item is put in or removed, you can't activate the accept button before 3-5 seconds have passed. This would be nice because it would show that something had been put in or taken out. Also, this should be added to the final screen as well.

 

 

 

This update would probably help the most if it was a hidden update.

 

 

 

Combining all three of these suggestions together would be very nice. It would highly decrease the percentage of people that get scammed. The first one can be removed from that and it would still be a lovely update, though.

 

 

 

No pictures at the moment, but none should be needed because this doesn't involve any new graphics so far. May be added later for the double click so that it changes color after the first click.

Started free trade with 1.5m cash. 2 weeks later, have hit max cash 2x.

The first ones pretty useless.

 

 

 

The second one is pretty useless too, people like you (no offence) would double click 2 times resulting in the same problem.

 

 

 

The third idea, it a good one, and probley the only one worth updating.

all of them except 3...are kinda pointless. There's a second trade screen, thats all.

 

 

 

#3, i think that instead of a delay, if u click accept after they've removed items, it wont' go to second screen, and a message will pop up on the trade screen notifying you that items have been removed, and check carefully!

The best thing to do is to move the accept button on the second screen so that there is no why for you to double click. it might make people mad because of those two extra seconds, but i think they will live.

I will shoot down any one with my bitting wit, and sarcasm!

What POSSIBLE reason would someone have to make a fake like that?Does he profit from faking a picture like that? Does it help him at all?Jesus Christ, stop being so suspicious. This is Tip.it for God's sake, not RuneHQ. -_-
