"Pray to ancient xp God, what would you ask him?"

Just ask if people want more BXP weekends! No need to (badly) disguise it. Surely most people who do not know this questions relation to BXP weekends will say quicker, it's just human instinct to take what is free.

Why dont you ask:
"Would you like the achievement of getting high levels lessened, the economy sent into shutdown and a ton of people grinding for levels over a weekend instead of enjoying the game?"

Guys - I wrote this weeks' poll (as I do most weeks!) and I just want to make sure we're absolutely clear - this is not in any way meant to be a direct feedback poll on the Bonus XP Weekend.

Don't read too much into it - I was just personally interested to see what some of our players thought about how much work goes into levelling. Of course our chaps in content will see the results and that may help them think about future events but that's not at all the intention here. :-)

Thanks,

Interesting to see the way other people play and I can't say that I'm surprised by the answers to these questions, but I was hoping that they would tell a different story.

Seems that a lot of people just focus on levelling these days, and while it would be nice to think that they're enjoying themselves doing this, I know that most people just bore themselves out of their minds grinding for a skillcape, and then when they finally get it, it's just a massive anticlimax.

About the last question though..

If you're asking for feedback on whether to do another BXPW, that question will give you the wrong answers. My problem with the weekend isn't related to experience, that really doesn't bother me. What I dislike about the weekend is the way it messes up the Grand Exchange in the days between the announcement and the weekend, as well as it pressurising people to play so that they don't miss out.
Cabbage? CABBAGE!

I would have liked to see an option for the last question along the lines of "Gradually increase along with new updates."

That would be more accurate than "Exactly the same as it's always been!" Seeing as most xp rates have gone up over time.

I like K_E_V_I_N's idea for the money poll! Maybe make some of his suggested answers more fun, though.

Add a question about what people do with their money: buy armor - only the best will do for a serious fighter,
invest in property - constructing my POH is only the beginning of my empire,
buy outfits - why risk my manicure by earning the outfits,
buy items low, then sell high - I'm a mercher at heart,
save it all for a rainy day - I love that it never rains in Runescape,
buy items to work on skills - I don't mind helping others reach their goals while I reach mine,
buy items for quests - I'm in a hurry here,
some combination of those,
other

I think it also needs a question about people's favorite way to make money:
picking up loose change,
picking up odds and ends to sell later,
smithing and crafting items to sell,
fighting the roughest toughest beasts and bosses,
gardening - I love the dirt under my fingernails,
performing dances and ceremonies for fellow Runescapers,
[I'm sure you can think of several others]

The new poll was good.

However, after looking at the results for the last question, I *strongly* recommend that you take careful notice of the difference between F2P and P2P.

F2P players overwhelmingly support faster leveling.

P2P players - your loyal, paying customers DO NOT want this.

Listen to those of us who pay (and have been for many years), please =).
