"I am very focus on looking for additional ways to provide even more members benefits, a greater say or perhaps enhanced services or response times"

@Mod MMG, this is a joke, right?

Do you remember this?

"We'd also like to clear up a few issues surrounding the free game. RuneScape is different from all other MMOs in that the free game has an epic amount of content (we'd estimate over 2,000 hours worth to get all your skills up to 99 and complete all the quests) and isn't merely a demo for the members' version. If anything, we see the members’ version as an expansion pack for those that really love the game and we feel both games are substantive in their own right. I want to apologise for habitually over-promoting the benefits of membership to our free players. I strongly believe if you love the free game you will equally love the members’ content and that is sufficient promotion to me. If you can't enjoy the free game in its own right then we're not doing our jobs properly. We will continue to improve the free game and, crucially, make it as fun as possible because we know that this is the way that everyone first discovers RuneScape."

MMG, what are you going to do about the advertisement of Runescape?
MMG, you need trailers on gaming sites and game review sites showcasing Runescapes new graphics and combat system. Also in the trailers, don't make them typical fantasy MMO trailers like the ones you already have, make them showcase what is unique about Runescape like the quests with real plotlines, the many skills to train, the many mini-games and us having a multi-class characters that can do everything in the game.

Removing gambling and releasing bank spaces to Loyalty Shop; would be a step in the right direction to gain your trust and respect again.

Hey I don't post in the forums much but I think it's awesome that you finally admit that you have sometimes been wrong! As you said, no one makes the right decisions all the time! :) You always bring loads of great updates but some of them the players dont always want, it's great that you have said that you are going to make more of an effort to take more players' opinions into consideration, RS2013 will be a great year I am sure of it!

I really enjoyed reading this post (first thread I opened today, on my daily general section surfing).

I'm really looking forward on checking out said investments on graphics that were mentioned in the first post, after all, if you have been playing the game with it's starting graphics (back in the days the game worlds didn't have numbers but names like Peer1 and United Layer), there's nothing more pleasing and enjoyable than watching it bloom graphically (and game content-wise, but I think you guys knew that already).

I have been playing this since late 2002, on and off, and it's impressive how the game has progressed and how one has lived through these changes. Everything being so gigantically different than it was 10 years ago. Guess it's a shame some people believe these updates are killing the game while the only truth is that they mean nothing but progress.

I believe I have nothing else to add, just thank you guys for the effort put in a game I've been playing since I was 9, nearly 10 years old (I'm nearly 20 now, haha, guess time goes by quick).

(On a really, really, really side note, are you guys at Jagex thinking on setting up Latin servers? That'd be awesome. Other than that, I hope I get to meet you guys soon; I'm studying videogame designing and I'm very likely to send my CV to Jagex once my studies finish :P )

Game on!

@ Princess Rae,
"So that's the UK summer, yes?
We think so but its not set in stone at the moment, We are looking at a lot of options, we have a huge player base in the US so that's an appealing location, however we are also considering smaller events in multiple territories. Others are adamant that the UK is what makes it special.

Never the less we plan to give you guys at least 2 months notice so you can plan for it properly
