I'm not too sure about 120 skills.....
While it may be ok for max players, it might be a bit overwhelming for newcomers.
I am hoping for Jagex to focus on contents that will encourage new players rather than contents that support max/end game players. If all skills became 120, I think many players may be discouraged on joining simply because it would take months or years just to be a decent player in Runescape.

Even if skills were increased to go above 99 to 120. It would be unfair as majority of the people would be maxed to 120 considering they are above 104m XP.
So it's really defeating the object. And Jagex couldn't roll back XP.

Skills should be kept as they are in my honest opinion. Scapin' Since 2007 - @RS_Stoney

These have always been my biggest problems with them raising all skills to 120. It works with dungeoneering because the content actually goes up that high. I could only see all 120 skills being viable with a MASSIVE update to ALL skills providing 99-120 content at the same time they come out. At that point it might as well be an expansion.

The only saving grace to 120 capes right now is that they're optional. If all skills were expanded to 120 with level benefits to match, I feel like it would cause more harm than good because it would be an impossible goal for 99.99% of the community.

Combat xp is so easy to gain you can get 99 in a month or less at best xp creatures Also you can afk them so. And are you also forgetting how easy it is getting to max on accounts these days? In the near future i can see players getting max cape in a year or less so why not add these down the road?

Just going to be blunt about this: Most people have lives. There will always be a very, very small minority who no-life the game to an extreme degree (people who have nothing better to do, people who have an extreme addiction to gaming, or a combination of both), but there are far, far more people who can't even get the current max cape. Expanding the game to the point where getting all 120s would be the new "max" just to cater to the extreme minority would be incredibly senseless imo. I feel like it would just cause more harm than good.
