Will RS ever be Scaled Up?
Quick find code: 16-17-926-65091295
As previously mentioned, nearly 3 years ago, this is not something we are planning to do. It is something we raise in our "wish list" discussions and look at for feasibility quite often but is significantly more difficult to achieve than some players seem to feel it should be. It is certainly not just a case of mapping down some extra forest between locations to make it bigger

This is very much true. Take for example the co-ordinate system for treasure trails. Each point is individually mapped. Thee are countless lines of code for each single point. If we were to say grab the confines of Varrock. To move it, you would have to rework the entire code of the map to accommodate for that movement, as each line has it's own relation to each point. I would love to see it happen, and will agree it is sorely needed, but the scale of work is much more immense that it first seems to be.

The opposite of Justice is simply another Justice. What is Evil is subjective to each person.
YOU

so it's possible
Do you guys not like being games developers or something?
Isn't half the reason you do your job because it's challenging?

It depends what you mean possible - almost anything is possible in the development of a game but it has implications in the decisions you make. Such a project would be beyond huge - several times bigger than Elf City and NXT combined. That is just not a feasible project, in time, the number of devs that would ahve to be involved, or the impact it would make to current game content/development.
