@Mod Sabre No never anything Saradomin. I hate Saradomin stuff on principle. I like how it is for looks but never to wield :P Also most gods stuff now since 2 are liars, one tried to kill me another we know next to nothing about and the last wasn't a god to begin with. Leaving only one of the main 6 left.
Lol I like the latter suggestion for the store. One of your competitors has it in their game. You need to implement /emotes for all the dance emotes though :P
Edit: I like Bandos the best too dispite his trying to kill me.

This is what bothers me. A player earlier in this thread wrote: "... since [double spins] weekend, up to now (this adding any more lamps obtained from purchasing additional promos) I've been able to bump my Hunter level from 93 to 96, a massive amount of exp from lamps, and not one of them were large or huge. Each small lamp nets me 8k exp, and medium lamps about 12-13k exp."
The point of the post was that spins help players level up and a lot of those spins are being purchased. In other words, players are paying Jagex to level up their accounts. As that player wrote, "many peeps out there that feel they're achievements being nulled."
Jagex shouldn't accept money from players to level up their accounts.
Is it right for teachers to take bribes in exchange for better grades? No. Is it right for olympic judges to take bribes in exchange for better scores? No. Is it right for Jagex to take bribes in exchange for higher stats? No.
Please stop selling spins.

but that doesn't change the fact the runescape economy is already torn up. what about the money and items like rares for example that gets destroyed when you nuke a bot account? or the addition of the money pouch so no money is lost when you die? not to mention the stuff people sell to shops? not everything can be sold on the GE mostly due to the fact nobody will buy it but you can still get money from a shop I've even seen items selling for less on GE than the shops will pay for said item. all of that stuff does have an effect on the long term economy. also i think that if a bot has/had a rare item it should go on GE for sale then that GP can go back in to the shops' GP and that would be less money created by shops just funneled back in to the game by sales on GE.

Thanks for answering these questions. :)
I do have some other concerns though. We have had a lot of SOF and Solomon's store updates recently, about once per week there is a SOF or a Solomon's store update, does this mean that the Jmods working on the website needs to prioritize this before other projects such as updating the forum for the community?
Many forum users, including me, have waited a long time for the forum to be updated and it feels like these SOF and Solomon's store updates are slowing the process down. I'm just speculating but it would be nice to see some forum improvements soon, I think more players would enjoy it than SOF or Solomon's promotions every week.
I would be grateful if this could be answered.
Thanks,

Ecologic - You raise some good concerns there. I cannot give out too much information regarding the future of the forums, but rest assured that the process of updating them has already started behind the scenes, hopefully bringing about more features and automation in the future.
You don't need to worry about SoF updates taking dev time away from other ares such as the website or in game content like quests and events - we have a large number of teams working on all kinds of projects, so nothing gets priority. Some teams are even working hard on updates not scheduled till next year!

Thanks for the answer Mod Sabre. :)
I understand that you can't say exactly when the next forum improvement update, I really hope that's it's within months at least.
I know that you guys got a large number of teams working on different areas but I just don't want the SOF and Solomon's (or any other similar updates) to take time from any other team.
Thanks again,
