Looking at the Bestiary I see one thing Missing.

List of Possible Drops from the Creature I am Inspecting.

At my High Level I want to Know of the Worth of even Spending Time killing these Creatures... Beyond the XP.

Lets face it... A Chicken is not worth me even looking at now.
But what about that Mithril Dragon? Is he worth me Risking anything at all? (including time)
Please make a link/list of Possible drop to one side of the Creatures 3-D graphic island.

(sry, I made a thread of this before I noticed this Thread existed)

Some suggestions:


The
News
category on the new homepage navigation could include a link to the
Recent Game Updates
forum,
Developer's Blog
,
Patch Notes
and
Social Media
wiki page.

And the
Community
category could include a link to the
Community Hub
or the
Wiki
.

Also, I think the
Player Power
should be renamed
Player Polls
.

And I noticed there is a duplicate link to the
Membership
wiki page - one under Game Guide and another one under Shop. To avoid clutter, I'd suggest removing the one under Game Guide.

And finally, it'd be awesome if we could have some icons for the drop down menus on the navigation like on the Shop category.

PS: I'd like to add that the new homepage looks better than the old one. :P

Hey everyone!

As you can probably see I'm Mod Shadow ;) and I'm a Web Systems developer here at Jagex, so naturally this thread peaked my interest.

This is a great thread for website improvements, I've been going through each of the suggestions and looking at the feasibility of them all.

I'll be visiting a bit more in future and hope to give you guys a bit more direct feedback. There's a few things here that are really interesting and I'd like to explore, whilst others may be a bit too infeasible (but that doesn't mean they will stay that way!)

Shadow.

One suggestion that I thought could be commented on...

Possible to have a list of most-used forums shown when hovered over the Forums button at the top?

My initial thoughts are as follows. On the one hand, it may help direct players to the sections they may enjoy most, and could be useful to regular forumers who can use the drop down to navigate around more quickly. On the other, it may funnel players into sections that are inappropriate for their thread topic and hide the existence of most other forum sections.

Personally, I would add drop down links to Community Home (or the Forum Help thread specifically) as it is otherwise quite a pain for new forumers to find it for help. Welcome to the Forums and General could also be nice to have. Yes, there's the risk of an influx of misplaced threads, but I just get the impression General has also become a lot more quiet on all other fronts since it was removed from the drop-down list, which is sad to see... -

Considering that General was supposed to be rarely used in the first place, with most common sorts of topics having their assigned subforums, this hardly seems like an issue.

A MASSIVE APOLOGY!

I have actually been settling into university! I am now set up with my laptop ready and will be doing all of my foruming in the evening! Excuse the mass of replies that I am about to create and thank you for maintaining such great activity - I won't be going like this again! :)

Feel free to donk me on the head for being unable to view threads with a rubber chicken at Runefest next week ;)

Thanks,

Misty Fuzzy ....
