External RSN Library

[Flamedog]

Hey guys,

This idea just came to my mind:

An external website becomes available where you can fill in all the RSN-names you have and link them to a topic on Sythe where you sell them. That way people can easily find the name they're looking for and see if it's for sale, banned or unknown.

I could've put this idea in a Sythe-topic which would function the same way but it's probably very unhandy for 1 person to update all the records on that post, so I thought it would be simpler to have an external website where you could update a names' record freely (with some sort of admin-permissions to check all the input)

Would anyone be interested in such a database/library and would it be useful?

(I've put it here cause the Suggestions forum will probably attract the wrong audience, I need opinions from rsn-sellers/buyers)

Sounds like a good idea but to do it you would have to go through allot of pages to get all of the names to even have a good website. But the name request page has something like this but it only tells you the rarest names e.g Colour, single digits, rarest names. But in some cases if someone bought a name two years ago I don't think he would want spam from people on runescape and sythe saying can I buy your name off you.

it would be up to the person to decide wether to put their names in the list. If they happen to be sold the seller can update it (with a 'last updated' record in some form to be able to tell if the seller is still active) and the buyer (if he wants to) can put it on his name (or remain anonymous by leaving it 'sold' with no further reference).

The idea requires a bit more thinking though, it might be account-based where the user can choose wether to hide or show his sales etc, with some sort of validation (some sythe mods idk). I might work out an image of how i'd visualize this

Really really really good idea.

people could add in their own names and then say which it is:
For Sale
Not for sale
Banned
Not for sale at the moment

Could have like

--- Name ----- Status
Daihatsu ----- NFS

for example.

Yea, but the thing is how would you know if a person scammed that name. Couldn't people just sell the name over there scam and keep repeating that. If you have a database it would have to be a forum or something.

you dont sell via the database, it merely serves as a reference for accounts and if its for sale as a reference to the topic. Claiming you have a name while you don't basically means nothing will happen cause sales will still go through sythe

You ignored my suggestion bro!

Good idea mate. Support.

You should make the database have a password or something so fagex wont see them

my bad but the thing you suggested is exactly how I'd picture it too. Ill make up a little design today hopefully, just to get a better idea of the functionalities/simplicity

Implying if fagex wanted it they couldn't get it from somebody who had it.

It's a decent idea. Obviously 1 person can't handle editing the name request thread. To be honest it serves next to no purpose. I have yet to see anybody have any helpful information somebody's had with a name request. 2332 was told that ricky does not own 4, 8, or Z... yet look at the thread.... still misleading as fuck. I'm not blaming 2332 directly, but most of the information on that front page is irrelevant. If sythe allowed multiple people to contribute to the main page or the database as a whole, the idea might function properly, or at least as close as it could get. With the idea sythe has laid out right now, it's next to useless and completely garbage.

Most of the names on the front page have no info at all. And the ones that do aren't accurate enough or don't provide any relevant information on how they could obtain it or something, if at all. Names get passed around so much it's impossible to keep track of them

MotherYar, thanks.. but it's really hard to have correct info when lots of people are telling me different info on each name, and many at the same time.

It's hard to keep everything correct at all times but most of the 2 digits have CORRECT info.
