Just making the skills 120 isn't a good idea in my opinion.

I personally think it would be a good idea to add sub-skills to skills so like a skill within a skill with its own content ect.. and you'd only get access to it once you are 99 in said skill. ofc it would have to be a big update but i think it would be the best way to do it because all the maxed players would start on a level playing field instead of players with 200m xp or 120 instantly unlocking all that content if they just made the skill to 120

They could do it, as we're seeing with Slayer, but an awful lot of skills (including Slayer, let's be honest here) have major issues with 1-99, varying from just being plain useless to nonsensical balancing (elder trees are 90 Woodcutting and make level 60 ranged weapons) that need to be fixed before they even think about 120.

There is also the issue with xp rates. In order for 120 to not take utterly forever, the top-end xp rates have to increase quite a bit, which just leads to skills being maxed faster, so I don't thik 120 skills really fixes the issue of a maxed community.

the reason I hardly play anymore I don't see the content worth playing as it is now. in other words the game isn't really fun anymore. look at a lot of other mmo's and how they keep player base and do something similar to keep your player base. at this rate your gong pull off what cod did and lose it to a old game sorce because u got greedy.

The 99 grind is boring enough with tons of free xp thrown at us nowadays


Um, that may well be true, but I would have thought that the "tons of free xp" help make it less boring, rather than making it worse.

I do agree, though, that throwing "tons of free xp" at us is the wrong way to fix a boring grind to gain levels in skills. In my opinion, the right way is to ensure that people have a fun way to develop their skills.

But I do not think that minigames, a form of content Jagex seems to be fond of, are the way to go about it. Basically, instead of grinding at skills, what I'd like to be doing when playing RuneScape is making progress in my character's adventure - advancing towards fixing what's wrong with Glienor, saving it from being the plaything of the gods.

Some quests, though, I find overly challenging. And quests are a form of content that takes time and effort to develop, so I don't think it would be reasonable to ask Jagex to please add ten times as many quests to those we have already. So my favorite suggestion is to rework and extend Dungeoneering instead.

NEVER DO THIS.
I WILL RAGE QUIT.

Seriously though, the thought of the time required to start this game and get anywhere, would be so much more absurd than it already is, deterring people effective immediately from wanting to play longer than a few months.

Just because you're "maxed/comped" doesn't mean you deserve "more challenge", give back to the game, entertain others instead of expecting the game to constantly entertain you. Go replay some stuff. Create your own in-game ideas to do. Dang. It's irritating to think anyone that high could "get bored" with RS, yet keep logging in and complaining about it - go play something else awhile. Something. IDK. Just quit asking for "more" in terms of levels and stuff. Content is always coming, but the era of "instantly gratify us now" needs to die.
