Increasing the level cap (this does not necessarily mean to level 120) is only useful if you already have the created content to put within the previous and new cap. Making content for the sake of having something to put in there for all skills is the last thing that should be done, as this would mean bad quality content and a overall lack of balancing. 120 symbolically that doesn't provide anything, well we already have that with the so-called '120 capes' so there's no need to actually increase the cap. Otherwise the cap could even be made level 126, because that's what 200m xp could allow. Feel free to take a look at my suggestions: 200m xp prestige

I've thought of this and supported the idea since Dung was released with a 120 cap. Now, there are so many more reasons why this should be done.

My second major thread on this subject is here:

The most important thing about this idea is that it does not have to be implement with fully filled out content. When RS started 99 was cap and there was barely any gear/unlocks over level 50.

I think they should increase the cap to 120 now and slowly add in the content over the next few years. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

Runescape isn't just a game for high-levels and veterans. If the skill cap was raised from 99 to 120, that would be a tremendous grind for players who are already maxed . I know because I got attack to 120 and it was extremely difficult.

Now imagine how much of a grind it would be for players who just started... or have only been playing a short while?

Runescape already has the toughest grind of all MMOs... To make that grind almost 10 times harder is ridiculous.

So what if more people are getting maxed? That's going to happen as a game gets older. New content doesn't have to be "more grinding". New content like raids, PvP content, quests and events is more than enough to keep a maxed player occupied...

If you're already maxed or have a pretty high total, or perhaps even have a 120 skill(s) yourself, then yes you might be excited to get skill caps raised from 99 to 120. But this is just some of the high-level player population.

To the new players, potential players and probably most of the average players on Runescape (and even high levels like me), this would make "true maxing" an impossible goal and "normal maxing" much less valuable.

I'd like to one day get a max cape. However, I can't play all day everyday and I know many of us cant either. This game should have goals attainable by all kinds of players. Even if maxing is already a huge grind, its still a possible goal for even busy people. But getting all skills 120? After getting Attack to 120, a fairly fast skill too, I know this would not be worth it for myself and for the huge majority of Scapers.

I vote no.
