I think i've got a great suggestion to reduce the number of scams

 

 

 

everybody knows that you're supposed to read the confirmation window, but after you've been standing there trying to get a buyer for half an hour, once you get a buyer you want to just breeze through the whole thing. As a result you miss the confirmation window and you get scammed sometimes. I say that Jagex should put a countdown timer on the window and hide the buttosn for 5 secs or something to make you slow down and read the thing.

 

 

 

I think it would be really helpful to the people who constantly get scammed. And since i'm not a member, I can't really make a suggestion so if a member reads this could you please make the suggestion for me?

 

 

 

thx

Very good idea!

This is one of the best suggestions I have ever seen! I really hope this goes through. I have been scammed on this second-window-fast-away thing sometimes, so this surerly will prevent alot of people from being scammed!

Moved.

Its a good idea but i've got a better one,

 

 

 

line em all up and shoot 'em :XD:

nice idea, I'm a member and can't get on the forums lol thats why i use tip.it.

I dont want to wait because people are dumb enough not to check the 2nd trade screen.

agreed, instead if making jagex make a new update for the people who refuse to check the screen and blame jagex, why dont you use a little thing i like to call common sense?

Well it's good, but it's probably a better idea to force the removal of an item to be 2 seconds or so and apparent.

not a bad idea it will give people time to read the other stuff instead of just clicking through.. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

notice that i said going standing there trying to sell something for an hour. After waiting for that long, it's very natural for people to be like

 

"yes! i got it i'm finally gonna get [insert item here]" and they get so excited and they start clicking through the thing.

 

 

 

and thanks a lot shane for suggesting it:):)

also from lag, this is a mistake ive made once or twice :oops:

 

 

 

clicked accept a few times on the first screen because it was lagging and without me even seein that anythin has been changed they got away with my... i duno, rune... thing

 

 

 

i think its a good idea

I have a little story-

 

I'm in world one trying to sell 10k airs and one guy trades me a zammy skirt for 10ks airs. We both accepted and it was a fair trade.

 

I didn't want the skirt so i decide to sell it.

 

I get a trade from one player and he offers 500k. we both click accept and then he clicks decline.

 

We trade again and again and the same thing happens.

 

Then i trade him and and he puts up 400k for the skirt and clicks accept on both screens

 

After waiting half an hour trying to and sell the skirt i thought 'fianlly' and click accept without thinkng.

 

Turns out he only put up 40k and 12 swordfish.

 

 

 

Some people are eager to get a trade because of scammers who always decline and this gets annoying.

 

 

 

Overall, I think it is a great idea to stop scammers.

ive just read this whole thing again (oh god i must be bored) and it occured to me, what if someone joined runescape today with the new system in place then tried to trade somethin but didnt understand you ad to wait for the trade?..... just a thought

 

 

 

maybe add trading into the tutorial at the very beginning

This is a really nice idea. You have my full support. :thumbsup:

Better be safe than sorry. You've got my support.

thanks for all the support guys

definitely. So far, I've never been a victim to any rule-breaker, of any sort, scammer or otherwise, but I know lotsa people who have.

 

 

 

All for it

I agree, it would definitely stop thousanbds of scams a day... scamming would be very uncomomon if it happened.

That's a very good idea! :D

 

You have my full support! :D

 

No more scammers! :evil:

no way... ess runing will be to slow... and i can make many many trades/ min and why do you dudes dont look the second trade screen?

great idea i think a time would get very very very annoying but it will definitally help a lot.

For it :)

 

 

 

Me me laugh when someone said 'Im not waiting' - Its five seconds :roll:
