Hello Mod Mark or any other mod who can answer this (if you are still here!)

Last month during the AMAA you said that this month Kharshai was going to get revealed. I personally did lots of guesses where this was going to happen. Lore book of the Kalphite King? Tasks Reward?

But yet we still have no reveal. Is the reveal delayed or still happening this month? Maxed Zarosian skiller & quester

In support of the players discussing the ease of xp gain (RuneSpan, lamps, promotions) I understand the pain. It annoys me to see people complain about a skill "taking too long". That's a ridiculous call.

Skills these days take nowhere near as long as they once did, and it undermines a lot of skillcape "bragging rights". It's a shame that people these days just want the best of everything in under a week, or else they complain. I wish more people would show dedication to their training and sense of achievement I guess.

Thank you so much for this post. I'm really looking forward to all the new stuff you'll be releasing.

I have a few questions:

Many players have been waiting for a Smithing and Construction rework. And now we are waiting for a Summoning rework (as you menitioned it in a live stream). Will we see the reworks in 2013?

@gruntamania, true, but this might have certain side affects that we could all enjoy. more players would come back to the game and stay longer just to reach that coveted "99'". maybe if you think about it, could you consider it only feels easier because of the kills being more structured, and uniforemed in a sense, kills take around the same length of time now. this makes it better for slayer (i.e) because you know exactly what youll need on a task.

Thank you Mod MMG and Jagex for re-thinking about a lot of things going on and apology accepted... somewhat :/ I like everything you wrote about and I'm sure a huge amount of players would agree with what I have to say

I'm from a small town were RuneScape is pretty much all we have. There's not much else to do here. We don't have a bowling alley, a mall, an arcade, nothing other than a Walmart and various gas stations. What really killed us was when RuneScape 2 seemed to take a turn for the worse with the EOC. I'm not saying it was a horrible idea, we all just feel like it could have been changed in another way. Why not just keep RS2 and make the EOC into RS3? This could have easily kept the old players who love RuneScape the way it was and it would allow for those players that like the new combat system to move onto RS3.

I'm sure Jagex has taken this into cosidration but didn't see any reason to do so, but did you ever stop to ask us what we thought? Why wasn't there a poll system for all of us to vote or a in-game petition for all of the RuneScape community to see? We still love the old RuneScape. It'll never be the same for us and it sucks, it really does. I think back all the time to when RuneScape was a huge highlight of my life and now that feeling just isn't there anyone.

Does anyone feel the same?

-Sincerely, Noob Steak

“Well said, we need to recruit more language support – in fact we are ....and if you’re interested head over to Jagex.*** and send us your CV " (Mod Murray, page 33).

The post was refering to the Dutch community, but there's no vacancy to support this language. Besides Mod Zach told our community that you Jagex wasn’t searching one. Can we get an update with some clear prospects? I think that Jagex already knows how badly our community needs some support and you guys want to improve communication. This is your chance! :)

This will likely go unanswered but I feel I should voice my opinion on the matter anyway, in the hopes it gets at least read and digested.

---------------------
There was never a definitive reason given for the buyable spins on the Squeal of Fortune. I feel it was the single most damaging update to the players’ opinions of Jagex as a whole and the future RuneScape was leading toward. Since there are clearly NON COSMETIC rewards in the form of gold and experience, no matter how you try to justify it, it is Pay to Win.

It has been said before, but why have you not seriously consider REMOVING experience lamps and gold from the SoF?

Players have... begrudgingly... accepted the cosmetic overrides on Solomon's General Store. Diverting focus from SoF and focusing on Solomon's and the Loyalty shop, standardizing them into one interface system; potentially an exchange system of Loyalty points for either of the above at a low exchange rate (~25-50 RuneCoins per 15000 Loyalty Points); would help make the systems you've put in place appear to be less of the rushed and disorganized grab for money they were on release, and still do.

Mod mmg ty for the post and update for 2013.

I have ran a clan for 5 years now and I have enjoyed every minute with my clan. The citadels could use some new skills like farming or agility and the avatars could be updated allowing ranks lower then admin to summon them. Members keep asking me if I will make more admins so the 3 avas are out all the time. I dont think its right to just throw high ranks out to everybody considering my clan has a well established ranking system. It would be nice if you could make it so sargents and up can be avatar wardens :p

Another concern im constantley facing is a dead clan chat at times. This is because people would rather talk instead of trying to type at a boss or while they are skiling. Also we have people who keep wrong chatting since theres too many chats in rs. clan chat, friends chat, private chat and public chat. With the release of eoc and pressing enter to chat, The / or the // or just enter has created many wrong chatting which has now directed many players to use skype. My clan doesnt allow skype and we have no way to police what happens there. I often get a private message from a clannie telling me about who said what on skype and i wish this was fixed. It takes away the in game chatting a clans suppose to do with all members and not seperate groups.

I would like to know if it is possible to add, for clans only, a live chatting system which can be policed by clan rules and jagex rules for the whole clan to use. This would, in my opinion, make my clan community more active with each other and get them away from hiding on skype.
