    Make a rule so that vouches must include $$$ amounts

    As we all know, vouches are used to show the reputation of a member in handling trades and whether they can be trusted or not.

    However, often when browsing through vouch threads, I see people saying "bought 30M rs3, smooth trade" or "Sold 500M to x, great trade" or even "Bought 300k, vouch!"

    The obvious question is: What was the value of the trade?!?!? Was it rs3 gold? What was the price of rs3 gold in 2008? Was it rs07? Was gold really worth 100k/$ back then"

    Heck, back in D3 days, I used to deal in "hundreds of billions of gold" but its obvious that i'm not as trusted as the trading barons in the runescape section

    Occasionally, I would see some sensible vouch such as "Bought 500k rs07 gold for 40$ from xxx, great trade"

    I think it should just be a rule that the real life value of a trade be included in all vouches because why else have vouches?
    It's similar to how certain trades cannot be vouched such as gfx.
    It would only be logical that vouch threads should have the dollar value of the trade because only then, can the buyer buy as confidently as possible.

    Just my 2 cents :)

    Impossible to micromanage every vouch. If you're not satisfied with amounts not being shown then don't trade em.

    Why is it impossible?
    GFX cannot be vouched and we do fine with managing that.

    Because the gfx market is small, there's not a lot of artists or a lot of work being done. It's not difficult to keep an eye out for those.

    The rest of the market however, is massive, with Vouches being made every few minutes (possibly more or less, just making a generalization)

    Micromanaging all of the Vouches in the market would create an unnecessary workload.

    Denied.
