Becouse you dont take 99% feedback from player ideas and
becouse you dont remove bots and fix wildernes and becouse you dont
remove flower game/scams/lurers/spamers/dung trols.

Many players have started quiting this game.... but your biggest problem is
that even video makers on youtube have start quiting. You have no idea
if runeshark quit that you will loose 50% of your current members
in few months after them... but afc simon is to much of a g33k to quit any time soon,
so make sure you make him happy. They are growing older and when simon gets
little taste of woman hood he will start thinking about spending less time with rs
and more time with his future gf, so make sure you take his feedback !

as you can see silentc0re and few other youtubers dont even want to log on daily
anymore, becouse there is just to much ***** updates and to many bots online.
Thing with green brutal dragons and mithril dragon bots is way to much.

You can easly solve this problem by removing free membership when new acc is created.

xAsmirm, I strongly believe that JaGex simply does not wish to stop the bots. Many things could have been done to stop them, then another wrong direction was taken.

People could pay for an unban, I don't know if this can still be done, but I'm sure many of the people botting higher-skilled things would use that to their advantage.

I believe there's a three-strike system now for getting banned, at least that's what I remember reading.


If they really wanted bots gone, they could take a strong initiative and do hands on work ** themselves just by going in-game.

I keep track of certain bots *hat I've reported, some multiple times, and they're still around. The only ones that seem to be getting banned are the ones that are advertising websites. Seeing as they're not actually paying a membership fee, they are of no use to JaGeX.

The sheer amount of time it takes for the company's staff to address something about the bots makes me think that they just don't care. As long as they're getting that monthly membership fee from the people botting, they are probably happy.

It's stunning at the amount of hate on here. If you don't like it, why are you even here? And I actually like EoC (and I'm a longtime member)...it's one of the things that made me come back (along with the quests, voice acting, ports, and RuneSpan, and Premier Club), and 2013 sounds like the best year RS has ever had, with HTML 5, 2 new skills (that aren't glorified minigames like dungeoneering is), the 200th quest, construction rework, Wildy upgrade, tons of god content (which also includs an epic Guthix grandmaster), etc. And then in 2014, Mourning's End 3 and the Elf kingdom.

And no, the worst thing to happen to RS was NOT SoF or EoC, it was the Revenants in the Wilderness which they thankfully eliminated and made Wildy more like it used to be. And free trade doesn't even bother me; I NEVER trade with anyone, I ONLY use the Grand Exchange.

And all the hate about Squeal of Fortune? Really? You don't even pay to use it! Well, if you want more spins...but really, are all of you that impatient that you can't wait 24 hours for more spins? Premier Club members get 3 a day, members get 2! Not to mention you get an additional one after doing EVERY daily challenge as well as completing the new quests.

And they ARE getting rid of bots. Have NONE of you actually participated in the trials where you sentence bots to death? Those are REAL bots and they continually pop up for you to destroy from the game.

I'd hope that in the spirit of Christmas, you'd actually show some dignity and respect and maybe give 2013 a chance when you don't even know what the year would be like, but that must be expecting too much from an MMO community who always feels entitled. You should be happy they're still making a game 10 years on and still being popular despite WoW and TOR and not having a $15/month fee or only releasing an update once every 1-3 months and even then the only good stuff is in expansion packs/DLC.

And honestly, I'm kinda happy that the amount of players online at one time is smaller than it was a few years ago. It makes doing certain things far easier and with less of a wait. Also, in regards to all your hate about bots...you do realize that if they were human players, you'd STILL have to compete with them to collect resources or fight enemies, right? It would just be harder since humans are quicker. And it would also probably mean less players would "quit", which means that rune rock has suddenly become much harder to mine.

This is still the best MMO by far, so I feel sorry for those of you who, in your misguided anger, will pay 50% more a month for content that only gets added, at best, once a month and which, for most of them, only update every 3 months or more - forcing you to spend more money for content (sound familiar? Oh right, the thing you're already complaining about in RS but which you'll happily do for WoW!) And the past two WoW expansions combined had less content than an average month or two in RS. And RS still has the best storytelling and questing of any MMO, ever.

And EoC DOES take skill...maybe more than before. Before, all you had to do was just hit attack and maybe turn on prayers. But there's a bit more strategy than before. Which ability would work best, should I save up for 100% or use adrenaline on a 50% ability? Hell, it took me forever to survive The Elder Kiln, and I'm combat 175. I can't speak for PKing, since I never PK and it's the least important thing for me, but for PvE, it's more fun.

And look at it this way. If this year is really the worst year ever, like all of you say it is (and it's not. I'm pretty sure last year, the year I quit, was the worst), then that should make you want to play 2013's content. After all, it's not like 2013 could be worse than 2012, right? And here's the problem with nostalgia...once you actually get what you wish for, you realize it was old for a reason. Happened to me already.
