at first, i was really against the eoc, now i can see it has brought some good things to the game, for example pvm. however their are some things i'dd like to see updated.
first of all, the wilderness is really dead right now. with the release of the eoc, the fun of pvp has really disappeared.
also, i really liked how every weapon had it's unique special attack, so i was hoping that instead of the ultimate ability's u might reconsider bringing the special attack back.


best regards

yu dead.

Dear Jagex,

It brings me great delight to include the RuneScape entertainment into my life. After a decade of community involvement, I have personally witnessed the changes of both company and audience alike.

These changes have not always transitioned smoothly, but as any reasonable art critic will know, each expression has inspired an emotional response and should be as appreciated as the next. Smoothing over these social reactions does not come easily, but with time all tidal waves calm as soon as they quicken.

Years after the fact, I still find myself giggling about an old April Fools day joke regarding the introduction of a new demi god. Alters still pending, no?

As always, thank you for your time, dedication and persistence in publishing one of the worlds most highly acclaimed venues of entertainment. It's certainly made my life more interesting.

the best thing you could do for Runescape and the community would be to admit that EOC was a horrible mistake, has lost you many paying players, and either offer us Non-EOC worlds that we cn play in, or just completely delete EOC from the game. You claim to have a huge staff to support...well how about splitting them into two teams..one to work on a Non-EOC game and the other to try to fix the horror that EOC is? When Coke came out with New Coke years ago, they thought they could force it down their customers throats if they just "hung on long enough people would adjust". It didn't happen. They lost major market share, and had to back down and re-issue "Old Coke" to try to reclaim all their customers who went elsewhere. Even that didn't completely work. But at least they are no longer a failing entity. EOC is runescapes "New Coke", and it has landed with such a thunk that it literally drove loyal players to other games. Some of these players privately e-mail me to tell me about the fun they are having elsewhere, asking me to join them. Some say they will come back if EOC goes, either with Non-EOC worlds to play in, or is just deleted completely. A few say they no longer trust Jagex and runescape to care what real players think, an that these forums are produced as "propaganda" and are populated by "tushie-kissers". They will not come back until they see a real change. I really miss all the people who used to play. People who earned their respect and xp the hard way. People who didn't have to have the game "dumbed down", so they could "achieve with minimal effort". What they are saying is making real sense to me, and because I miss them, I will in time be going too, if something isn't done to delete EOC in at least some worlds. Not happy with os

That post is the best bit of written communication from Jagex in my time playing. Honest and informative.
I hope it serves to demonstrate how easy it can be to keep us in the loop and that they'll continue it in future.

Propaganda and an attempt at damage limitation.

My friends list is empty since eoc and i have only done a bit of fishing since then (6 to 8 hours)

300 to 400 players on most worlds that includes bots have never known rs to be so quiet.

This is my first login for over a week, will probably cancel this subscription before next payment is due is 3 weeks time (missed this one so it auto renewned)

Jagex I would love for you guys to read this, now I have a great idea to keep the economy stimulating and that's with real estate. Generate huge plots of land with random scenery and sell plots of land for gold where players can make buildings and put a key/pass code on the door, these houses will have benefits such as a kitchen with a bank in it ways to upgrade the house then sell it on to other players who might either decrease or increase the value of the property. This could somehow fit in with player owned cities but you would have to make the land cost a bit so not everyone can buy them out fast. Being able to let others in to your house could benefit other players who might not be able to afford one such as myself.

Lolling at Jagex....

MMG: We care about the community.

1/2 community doesn't like EoC.

-MMG* Looks away and simply ignoring the community, goes further with stating the whole community likes the update.

Seriously Jagex?

Havent seen a mod reply in like 60+ pages? only hiding messages. :|

@ RS Slayerer

You wrote on page 211

You all need to stop living in the past!!!

"Runescape 2006 Servers" are not going to happen!

I know people have problems adapting to change but I don't think you realise how different the game was back then to how you remember it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And your opinion is fine because you want to adapt to change and continue playing the game... The thing is this isn't runescape anymore its a completely different game. So you want to play 2013scape whilst the majority want to play the game they grew up with just as it was.

What's wrong with this? Jagex would profit from it and the community and believe me we are a massive community of players who just want to play the game as it was, get what they want aswell.
