Merry Christmas from Jagex? I don't think so. All I *anted for Christmas this year was the EoC to not be live in game. How can it be a Merry Christmas for me if that didn't happen? Do you taunt me? Is this supposed to be some kind of sick joke? Why do you do these things? That is all I ask is why?

I am absolutely not happy with many of the changes this year. I don't like EOC. I hate that I'm forced to "get used to it" or not play. I want the option the play the pre-EOC version of RS. I have found that EOC decreases the importance of the cooking skill, because players need to eat much less in combat now. I have also experienced a much greater importance placed on combat than non-combat skills, where without it, many other avenues of the game are closed to you as a player, member or otherwise. I don't like the new skill level calculator, because it decreases the value of a high range & mage level, and makes the combat level largely melee based, with defense being a mandatory factor in the calculation. I also don't agree that bots have been decreased. I can't find a world where I can complete a grotworm task with mature grots because there is a 20 to 1 ratio of bots on every single world. In fact, I rarely find another real player down there at all anymore. I've personally reported more than a hundred of these myself since botany bay alone, and the numbers are ever increasing. Bosses, many slayer tasks, dwogres and dwarf cannoneers, and many other such in game monsters are overrun with bots, even kurasks and turoths. I'm not in favor of selling in-game advantages via Solomon's General Store or selling additional spins on the Squeal of Fortune. It appears to me that what started out as added advantages for members have simply become additional profit centers for Jagex. I don't play WOW and other such MMORPGs. I played RS BECAUSE it was different, and now, it's not so much. My family have been members for more than 5 years now, and my husband has played since RS Classic, but it's not fun for our family, anymore. We used to play all the time, and now my husband logs in a few times a year at best. I, while playing more regularly, am saddened that we can no longer enjoy the game as a family and am questioning the value of our paid memberships at this point.

Merry Christmas and God bless to all the employees at Jagex, as well. :) Thanks for such a fun year!

merry christmas everyone, especially the jagex team that make runescape possible, i have played for many years now and must say that with all the negative feedback you get from many people that don't understand updates at first, you always come through it every time and release amazing new content every time.

Kal Kringle - what do you mean by "understand updates"? First of all, I don't need to give a damn thing about understanding. As a costumer all I need to do is have fun with this game, but obviously there's no fun left in this game anymore(I hope that I don't have to explain why...). You should open your eyes!

:) Merry chrismas!

Now, im personally extremly exited to see how 2013 pans out. and im also very exited to bring this idea to the runescape community.as we all know in runescapes passed thair was a link on the runescape home page(ive started playing in 06 going strong=D)
were you could accesse original runescape. my exiting idea to the runescape community is why dont on the runescape mainpage we have a link to go to rs2. it would have all the quest skills items,that rs had 06.(plus it would knock 06scape out of the water) im sure old and new characters alike would flockback to runescape and knock those pesky rs wannabees(privite servers).you would have the same character but youd start all over agian this time in a 2006 runescape world. i urge you mods and game creaters to do this you would not regret it.
