Runescape Gold Swapping

ghoulman · Feb 7, 2014

Can a swapping sub-forum be added in the Gold Exchange forum?

This could be added as 2 new sub-forums: "Swap 07 to RS3" and, "Swap RS3 to 07" or it could be 1 new "Swapping" forum which would be a catch-all for swapping.

I feel that the buying and selling forums for EOC/07 gold don't cater very well to the swapping of gold to/from their respective games.
It just looks really out of place to see swapping threads in the buying/selling forums.
I think buying/selling/swapping should all be able to stick to their own sub-forums.

It's already suggested and it was suggested few months ago, didnt receive enough support.

rage @ my poor search usage.

It honestly makes perfect sense. As of now you would have to post threads in two different sections to ensure that everyone sees them. I count 14 threads spread across the four section's front pages that mention swapping. I think that is plenty active enough for it's own section. It would most certainly help people find what they are looking for.

I support. Worst case it can be removed if it's not active/used enough. No harm in trying.

Sellers and buyers are allowed to put 2 different threads, one for RWT and one for swapping which is a way of cheating i can tell because you can bump twice instead of one and in that way you will get noticed more by people. In my opinion there should be a specific thread for RWT and for swapping.

Definite support, but not going to happen probably, as staff have said no before :/

I totally agree/support. I find it quite unfair for the gold sellers who don't swap or make a thread dedicated ONLY to swapping and one ONLY to rwt, as about 1/3rd of the threads that are always being bumped are swap shops. I'm pretty positive it would be an active and useful sub-forum. ^_^

Can we add this to a list of things not to suggest?

Like it's been suggested about 10 times now, if it's going to happen then it will, it's not like it hasn't been brought to people attention...

Or we can just approve it already. I see no repercussions. There is only room for growth with a suggestion like this. If we approve it now and let the section grow, we could expect to see new users come in after legacy mode is out to use the service.
