You are CEO of Jagex
Quick find code: 14-15-261-66211888
1. I'd abolish Jagex Accounts and Jagex Launcher; there was nothing wrong with the old system aside from people falling for scams and getting their
own
accounts hijacked, and all Jagex Accounts/Launcher do for me is add a huge dependency and point-of-failure
2. Operation integrity: Any macroing is an non-appealable ban. Any auto-chat is a ban. Any RWT is a ban. Any behavior anywhere that is general anti-social or just hard-negative trolling is, believe it or not, a ban. I'd take the SQEX FFXIV approach and extend it outside the game too; you want to be a goblin on Twitch and think you're safe just because you're not doing it on RS forums? Nope, ban. You people know who you are and what your behavior is, and I find it abhorrent. Get ban'd
3. No 3rd-party clients (3PC). They only foster a instant-gratification entitled community. I'd be generous with temporary bans and warnings for a few months after loudly announcing the 3PC ban, and then outright ban anyone still trying to use it afterwards, non-appealable. I'd C&D client makers too.
4. RS and OSRS would be on consoles, Linux, and anywhere it can reasonably play. For consoles I'd immediately launch on consoles that allow only keyboard/mouse and no controller play (not sure if Xbox or PS allow this), and touch-only on Switch (assuming they allow that). I'd dedicate some employees to handle controller support more ideally. I'd quietly support homebrew efforts in this regard prior to official support.
5. Immediate release of "Old School" OSRS servers; no GE. Future content will continue for OSRS and RS, but for people that truly want an actual Old School experience (including myself), here you go. I'd also open RSC back up too; don't know why that's not available currently.
6. All in-game books would be available in physical prints or pdfs.
7. If all that goes badly financially or i get bored, I'd open-source server emulation code and allow people to run their own decentralized versions of RS and OSRS.

Dilbert, you really need to step back some fella. Having a few fantasies is one thing but you are taking it to extremes. As it's obvious you have no real world experience in these matters let me clue you in a tad.
The CEO serves at the pleasure of the board of directors, and they in turn serve at the pleasure of the stock holders (doesn't matter if public or private, there are still "shares"
. You, as CEO, will do whatever the BoD tells you to do, or you will be replaced.
From a practical standpoint the BoD sets the strategic direction for the company. The CEO executes it tactically.

I am the CEO not you. I have my life outside my job as the CEO of Jagex too. It is my responsibility to bring the best to the company as well as myself.
In case if you don't know, there are two people in the Board of Directors, me, the CEO and the CFO. So I am just listening to myself as my CFO is subordinated to me.
