And their response was "no." Why do you keep the thread bumped?
It was only one JMod - I pointed it out because it meant that at least some of them are aware of the idea. Not only do JMods often say different things on the same issues at the same time, but Jagex as a whole has shifted its stance on subjects they definitively stood before.
I did check my answer with development and design teams before giving it...

From page 35 for those who haven't read it:
"Scaling up the world, as various people have described and suggested in this thread would be a huge project - not only would it require a complete redrawing and designing of the whole world but it would have enormous knock on effects to the balance and economics of the world. As such it is highly unlikely to be something we would work on in the foreseeable future."
Well Mod Matthe, RuneScape is a progressive game. I am sure we all know that to be self evident by now after all these years. Much content has made its way into RuneScape. In the end, the content is there, being released almost weekly for the sake of the game, so that it may thrive. That is essentially the bottom line as to why there is content.
What this thread is suggesting is of the exact same nature, for the success of RuneScape as a whole, I am sure you will agree. Wouldn't you want to see the world expanded with newer areas to discover and explore? I am sure we all would love that, the elf city is a big manifestation of that.
We think it is vital for the game that in the future, however long it may take, and however long it needs to be, that the world be expanded further into the horizons. This type of content is something which cannot really go wrong. This is a dying game. Everything about it is just gaining XP and levels for a stupid cape, it's not about the unlocks. The skills are broken, combat system is dull and repetitive. And the MTX...lol.

The new Runelabs video was very demotivating to be honnest.......from a system where "ANYTHING PLAYERS WANT GOES,AS LONG AS IT DOESNT BREAK THE GAME OR IS PLAIN TROLLING" we went down to "OK,so we got this spare time guys,and we wanna make a new quest/boss/item for you.....leave your suggestons here....and see you in a few months".
so very,very saddening
......Sure there is still hope there will be an "ANYTHING GOES FOR A MASSIVE GAMECHANGING UPDATE" criteria some day.....but unless its so,i cant say i realistically see this GRAND IMPROVEMENT to the game,scaling up the world,coming to life.....*
******* update like that would be even bigger then EOC......but it also would level up the game,BY ALOT. its really hard to have "your greatest adventure" in a landscape you can RUN across in about 20-30 minutes......the world is just too small as it is today,theres not enough to explore......can you imagine how AMAZING would even a plain,simple place like varrok would be to explore and adventure through in a scaled up,beefed up world-but with runescapes simple and effective map and interface and gameplay? oh man
