Remember when your developers said "99s are too easy, how about we introduce a prestige system"?

It's because of things like double XP weekends.

In addition to devaluing the game itself, they mess up the economy for months and months, and encourage unhealthy gameplay.


But, since you are determined to go ahead with this, please, please make the following change:

You can only get bonus XP for the first 10 hours of gameplay - after that, you get normal XP.

This will encourage players to at least be healthy in their gameplay, as they would only have to play an average of 3.3 hours a day.


Edit: Realized you are not doing Friday, which you normally do. Perhaps you should make it 6 hours of gameplay before the XP is removed.

So I recently got my quest cape, quests being the main reason I play this game. All of them being finished, all that's left for now is grinding my skills higher. The long grind to just 90 even is brutal for me. And I still don't want this bxp weekend.

You said you were done with them. They **** up the economy. Just don't do another.

During the last one, which was supposed to be the last one anyway as you clearly indicated, I used it to get 99 Herblore.

Please leave out Summoning out of it. Make it 1.1-1.2x rather than a flat 2x. I just hit 99 yesterday, so this one will hit close to home if you do this now...
