Just about everything is out of place. For example the banking is too far, if they had a deposit chess in the cow fields and in the chicken coop, I can save a lot of time and in many other places where monsters are located like The Stronghold of Security to have deposit boxes/chess in places even in skilling places like fishing because it's a waste of my time doing many activities because the bank is too far.

At least for RS3, there are quite a few banks all around the world map. Having many deposit boxes around each and every skilling resource area would clutter the world map. There are quite a few resources that you could potentially use to ease the number of bank trips that you have to make: signs of porters, magic notepaper, portable deposit boxes, etc.

The RWT issue, I think the only way to completely counter act this would be making Gold Pieces and Platinum token Worth nothing, in example not tradeable at all.

At what cost to the community would this be? Jagex already tried restricted trades in the past, and it hurt the game in many ways. They eventually brought back free trade. Yes, open trade comes at a cost, but the real players must also get enjoyment from the game. Restricting the trade of coins and limiting the number of times an item can be traded would cause more harm than good.

I think if it where fused into one game with all of the idea mingling and putting away the game bonds being purchased through Gold Piece currency is a waste of time and profit to the company but hey that's just me.

I can imagine that members of both communities would not want this to happen. OSRS players enjoy the classic aspects of their game, and RS3 players enjoy the newer aspects of their game. Merging the two games would, ironically, likely cause more of a rift than a fusion.

Although OP seems to be talking about RS3 and OSRS, a lot of their "issues" don't really apply to RS3. For instance, we have far more banks and deposit boxes in RS3. We have porter signs. We have note papers. We have external banks for ores/bars, Archaeology material etc. We have Summoning BOB. We have all kinds of seed/herb/gem bags, ore/wood boxes. We also have Spring Cleaner which automatically alch/dissemble our drop on the premise so no banking is required. Of course we can manually dissemble most items for Invention gain any time anywhere.

RS3 and OSRS are meant to be 2 different games because they are going in 2 different directions. RS3 encompasses the past, the present and the future, as Jagex CEO narrated in the RS 20 Anniversary, and OSRS is as its name suggested Old School or something in the past. Technologies of the two games are vastly different and pretty much sealed the fate that OSRS can't be modernized much with its old 2007 technology stacks.

If you think the drop rate of Bandos or whatnots old school mobs are low or rewards are bad, there are better ones. We have a lot of choices in RS3. You may want to check out not just pvming, but also skilling and other new school minigames AKA D&Ds that give you much better rewards. Don't miss out on Necromancy. That will be a fresh start of many vital areas of the economy.

Adrenaline potions are our "special attack" potions in RS3 already. We use adrenaline and abilities in RS3. With Necromancy on the horizon, we are not just limited to melee/ranged/magic/def etc, we will have new "special attack" potions in the form of new Necromancy potions.

Yak Tracks are our Battle Passes in RS3. They exist long ago already.

OP, most of what you suggested are already in RS3 for a very long time and will only be getting better with Necromancy and new school Fort Forinthry. They don't exist in OSRS and perhaps it is the game where you want to offer your suggestions.

Let's continue to tell OP more about the goodies and truth we have in RS3 already and make them not "unfinishist" ;, regretfully not quite so in OSRS:

Completed levels in Fight Cave and Klin are saved in RS3 for years already. No need to repeat after we log out.

In RS3, clue scrolls don't always give "rare" items like over max cash dyes, but Fortunate items worth over 1 million gp each are very common rewards, even for Easy Clues. We get one like every 2 to 3 clue scrolls, and I have learned from some RSOF user it can be 30 mil gp/hr.

PvP are opt-in only now in RS3. We may have other new pvp content after the release of Necromancy, subject to opinions of the RS3 community.
