Hi everyone,

As you may have spotted, as part of this week's game update we converted two worlds into Skill Total worlds, requiring players have at least a total skill at 2000 and 2400 to get access.

Back in late 2012 we asked you for recommendations for updating the world list, and this resulted in the big refresh in December. Even though there were a many requests for more Skill Total worlds, we had to leave them out of that update due to time constraints.

However we hadn't forgotten your feedback and have now been able to implement them. We chose to replace worlds which had a low average population so this change should have minimal disruptive impact, but we're sorry to anyone who was displaced.

This is a bit of a test for us; there was a big demand for Skill Total worlds, but there is also a chance for segregating parts of the community. We'll keep an eye on how it goes and also be very keen to hear your feedback over the coming weeks.

thanks!

The worlds were requested mainly because players wanted to have; Less bots, and no gamblers on their worlds.
Players don't want to hop all the time to find a place to train, because certain spots are used by lots of players or some bots, they also don't like getting their chats spammed with gambling messages!
In my opinion this shouldn't only be for players with a 2K+ and 2.4K+ total level, but for everyone, and I do hope you agree with me on that, Pips. :)

Solution worlds: Add new worlds instead of replacing some?
Solution gambling: Remove Mithril seeds from the game, or make blue, yellow, black seeds etc.

Cheers dude. Goodbye everyone :)

Thanks for giving us a high total level world :)

Ok, but tell that to the 2007 servers. I know a few people high up in Jagex are concerned about a "catastrophic split in the community" over the 2007 servers. So please, do not go back on this decision for skill total level worlds when there are much larger issues.
