I have no words really, I can't even be bothered finishing my 200m all combat goal because I know there will be protean bones on TH within a week of me getting it.
I really hope Jagex doesn't read through this thread because if they find this protean bones comment, they'll be in the game next week.

They'll come soon regardless. They're clearly (slowly) making proteans for all skills. .

Dragon bones with a medium-blue filter on top? Or will they bother modelling a new item? Lampshades have an absolutely shocking attitude.

Lol modelling a new item

Their attraction is AFK XP, so looks don't matter - they'd just take any bone and colour it blue, bam protean bones created. They would just take Rune dragon bones and rename them.

Reminds me of what a now ex-Jmod friend of mine said on release of Heist:

"Why do we bother making content? We could literally make a tree, put it in the middle of nowhere and have it give xp for standing there - and as long as it gave the most xp/hr, people would do it" (paraphrased a little)

It seems that is now the case. Unslain Bosses - Clan

It's sad but it's so true

Stuff like waterfall fishing, silverhawks are an example of this. If it gives massive XP, it's popular and is extremely well received.

They literally could just throw any object into an area, give it a name and as long as it grants high xp/h rates, it will be popular. .

The thing is, I can't blame players for only doing the fastest xp/hr, but at the same time... Whatever happened to playing the game for fun?

I'm not sure how Jagex could fix it, even if they made every method give the exact same xp/hr, players would just do whichever was the most afk or needed the least supplies.

That's the mentality players are in and that mentality is so easy to exploit with Treasure Hunter, sadly. Unslain Bosses - Clan

I can only really be bothered tryharding for combat. I see skilling as something to do when you want to "relax" and not pay much attention. Of course it wasn't always like that, but nowadays skilling is basically either do dailies and/or afk prod. .
