''@Yassin of 72 the reason jagex are so slow at getting rid of bots is because they pay memberships which cover SOME of the memberships lost from bringing in EOC''

And then the goldfarmer claims the CC as stolen and JaGex has to refund cash + costs. as well as paying an entire team + equipment to combat bots. Doubt there's much if any profit.

Hope you read this.

Updates like Solomon store wasn't as bad as Squeal of fortune, (although bank boosters are seen as an item which can give an advantage) because it's good to let players purchase non tradeable clothing and teleport animations with cash they may have irl, because you're a company, and as long as it doesn't effect players ingame, i don't see much wrong with it.

Updates like the Squeal of fortune however was really bad, and it's sad that in a livestream you refused to say it was real world trading because players weren't buying it for the cash value. You know it was, no matter how much value difference comparing to 3rd party sites, players get free exp and tradeable items for real cash, which is something RS felt so strongly against.

Sizzling summer was bad, i was on holiday, and didn't believe my friend when he sent me a message on Skype saying you was giving away 700,000+ exp to every member.

I fully support trade limit, because then the gold farmers and gamblers would diseapear, although the limit should be greatly lifted, 50k or whatever it was is way too low. You obviously done this to keep your members when you released Solomon and other micro-transaction updates, exp devalues overtime, the worst thing you could of done is award free exp.

I quit playing because of the EOC, not micro transactions, i don't enjoy the content and never will, but i'll still play on F2P

Tips for 2013 is to start looking at what the players WANT, read your recent updates forum, it's full of rants on most content you release.

If you guys, are indeed, reading what we say on the forums; why have more than half of the community's (before the EoC launch) plea been ignored. We didn't ask for the complete obolishment of the EoC, we simply asked for a second server in which the older players could continue to play the game we likes, and the people that wanted to move on could play in the EoC type game. We wanted to keep out childhood game with us, while you guys could continue to update the EoC. The day of the EoC launch, I know atleast 25% of the REAL players quit the game for good. They might have logged in to try it out, but the new system is just not RuneScape. RuneScape was created to be a simple game with frustrating moments latched into the story line. Now you have to master combat, you have to face-smash your keyboard to kill one thing, and when you don't, you earn lesser XP/HR because you don't hit as high. There should be no penalty for sitting at Armoured Zombies for hours on end and just watching your character auto-attack w/o punching your computer's keyboard repetitively.
As I've said, all we want is a server in which we can play our old game and have fun doing so. In fact, you said you can easily create a server to replicate what RuneScape was like in 2006, but you don't ever plan on doing so. Why not? Are you scared to see that many more people would transfer to that account, or would be more willing to create new accounts to play that server than continue on with the current game? You don't continue to progress without mistakes, that's true, but you don't continue to progress unless you fix your mistakes either. The EoC was a mistake, and you said it was. Fix it and bring the broken community back together.
