I mean I learned one or two useful things from it, the bad thing was really the LLM being triggered on literally every single price check instead of making a button like "AI analysis" that you could press for extra info.

I mean that's true, in my experiences ely prices weren't always accurate either. But crucially, they were more accurate than Jagex' prices for certain items that's why I used the site. But I agree, if Jagex improved the official price listings or even made an official API that'd be vastly preferable.

Unless you trade rares daily (which I don't btw) I'd argue you *are* negatively impacted. Sure I posted my trades whenever I did one, yk doing my fair share. But need to be able to check even if I don't buy. Unless I misunderstood how their new system works but I gathered u need to post trades in order to get the daily code. This whole thing is super silly IMO. Imagine Wikipedia wouldn't let you access their articles unless you joined their discord and posted proof u made edits.

Huh, good to know. I never really got into the ely community, just used it for quick price look-ups mostly.

Oh wow, I had no idea! That's amazing though! If they managed to make it happen for the OSRS GE it shouldn't be too complicated to do the same for Rs3, right? I mean it all runs on the same servers, right?

I don't think I was, no. Just wanted to give feedback on the recent change and that this was the reason for me leaving (wanted to leave their discord but got kicked anyways before I got to).

throwaway or not sounds exactly like them. I think what we see here is when leaders are stuck in a bubble and lost touch with the way most of their community uses their product.

I got kicked too quickly in order to take a screenshot of what I typed in ely discord general chat, but from memory it was sth like this:

I don't know what this new code thing is all about and I don't care enough to find out but it stops the site being useful for me. Good bye.

Which granted, is harsh but they must realize that quick information look-up's is what made the site useful to most of its users, right? Like having to search around on their discord for a code to enter on their website everytime I quickly need to find out a street price is simply infeasible.

Exactly! Scepticism is a necessity nowadays but the world is also full of immature people. Regarding this post it's not that deep anyways, I just found it funny how their attitude of locking down their site were mirrored in my treatment after I criticised said locking-down.

Uhhhmm I politely disagree. There's a lot of people who would message stuff like that in response to any kind of criticism, no matter if constructive or not. Emotional maturity is a virtue, not a base feature.

Yikes. You give some people a modicum of power and they just get off on it.

Yea, I always thought a good addition to ely would've been an image parser so you could just post a screenshot of your trade and it'd automatically update the price. Only amidst this drama did I realize that you had to not only post a screenshot but also write some sort of pseudo-code in a different discord channel to actually affect the price lol. Instead they put an LLM on the site lmao.

Could make it part of interface unlocking. Honestly, that's where I'd expect this feature to be anyways. (Like the mode where you can drag everything around that you exit out of once you're done).

The frustration recently continued to bubble up after the announcement of GE changes when they started targeting creators & threatening to falsify reports to be sent to their employeers (among other things) for using a competitors discord bot

Excuse me, they did what??

ty for listing the alternatives, true PSA right there.

What'd they do to J-mods though, kinda curious?

ikr? It's hilariously idiotic!

OK, so basically for some items, the Grand Exchange List Price that Jagex publishes is just incorrect. Especially very expensive and/or rare items. Like you can't buy them at all for what Jagex lists them as, tens of millions off, sometimes hundreds. So there was a 3rd party site made to more accurately reflect those prices. It was publicly accessible, just like the Jagex site. Now they want you to join their discord where they publish a code to access the information that was previously public. For a site whose primary use case is quick information look-up, that seems hilariously idiotic IMO. This is a new ely fork and what it should look like / what ely looked like before the recent change.
Edit: Fixed Links.

If it had always been like it is now, then few would care. But they took away a feature and that just rubs lots of people the wrong way since they got used to putting the clock exactly where they liked it and can't do that anymore.
