RuneScape has ran for years now, and there hasn't been a problem, there is no need to change the trading system.
As for the number of players, there is a specific reason for the limit. If players were to run servers on their own machines (and this is why most people have never heard of famous private servers - as they arn't big) - they could only get say, 50 players playing (with lag) with an extremely good connection and CPU speed...
The computers at JAGeX are professional Linux dedicated-server machines, so they have much more efficiency when it comes to allowing users to play on the servers hosted on them - But there are still limits, if you made the limits higher, you would thus increase the lag.
In conclusion, it would be a bad idea.

Agreed.
If Jagex raises the limit, there will be more lag, if Jagex lowers it, there will be too many autoers per world, if Jagex leaves the limits alone, there will be more people asking for a limit change, meaning we're stuck in a vicious circle and can't get out until someone finds an alternative to moaning.
How about doing something about it, there's no way out, so there is no way to end the vicious circle, therefore there will always be people moaning for a change, a cycle that never stops.
People ask for changes, decide they don't like them, and beg for something even more outrageous.
If we think of something now that sounds better, odds are, it won't sound so good in the future.
World population is saturated around the first 5 worlds of both members and non-members. If Jagex raises the max, it will become that everybody goes to lower-number worlds, and that makes the problem even worse. If the max is lowered, the problem also gets worse, as the first five worlds will have even less people in them, causing the other worlds to get more lag.
As i said, it's a vicious circle, and there's no way out.
