What is the poll for? I don't have a total level of 100 yet... grinding out my first 99 :/

--------------------------------------------------------------
Stuff like option to remove roof, have f2p-items-only-pk worlds, change unids to grimy, allow you to press TAB to reply to priv message, Easter event, etc

Most of it except the Easter event and unid change is just for small UI changes, nothing too major

It is interesting that so few people have answered the poll, just short of 70,000 at the moment as opposed to about 450,000 who voted for OSR, or less than 1 in 6. Where are the other 380,000 original voters? Did they vote for OSR but could not be bothered to try it? Or were they never real votes at all? You do all realise that if the number of votes is indicative of the real level of interest, then Jagex are not likely to put too much effort into even minor updates?

Original message details are unavailable.

It might be almost impossible for you to get 75% Yes on anything if abstainers are counted as No votes.


Exactly. This needs to be taken into account ASAP. I have made a suggestion thread on this. Although my suggestion was to increase the voting requirements.

Ideas!

1. Rotate camera with scroll wheel
2. Profanity filter toggle on/off
3. Bank tabs
4. Bank search option
5. MORE BANK SPACE
6. All F keys are changed to match how they are in EoC
7. Rejoin clan chats automatically
8. Adventurer's log!
9. Withdraw all but one
10. Fix pathfinding
11. XP to next level
12. GWD + Clan Wars (Even though I know you guys will say no :( )
13. Castle Wars right click "light" option on barricades if you have a tinderbox
14. Shortened respawn times on Castle Wars Tinderboxes


Change Abstain to "Don't Care"

Hi Mod Ash

Many thanks for the opportunity to vote on any additional features we would like put into the game. My only hope is that players think carefully about their votes and choose on what they truly want/don't want.

Selv,

1. No because there is no need, not enough camera space.
2. Yes, this is an option in current rs so it should be an option.
3. No, sorry not old school enough for me.
4. Yes, no tabs but search is alright with me, it wouldn't ruin old school too much
5. I don't really know how much bank space we have now so....
6. I would be ok with that
7. Yes, I agree
8. Definitely agree!
9. Don't think it's needed
10. What is there to fix?
11. No sorry ruins the old school spirit.
12. Personally I don't mind but ill have to go with don't care on this one
13. Ok haven't tried castle wars on old school yet but alright sounds good
14. Don't know haven't played

Great ideas, I support some of them, and others I don't but either way I definitely support the adventure log!

After reading a couple pages of responses, I've come to a conclusion on how dense and stupid the RS population is.

You have the people who are so skeptical and fearful of EoC that they think any small change will result to that (Really? UI changes are going to be that severe?). And then you have the people that don't read (i.e. - F2P worlds are going to be members' only).

A game like this is going to need updates and changes, otherwise, it'll just eventually rot. Think of it as a caveman perspective: if they never invented anything new, they would still be cavemen; living life with constant hassle and annoyance. Maybe as of right now, since everything is fresh, nothing feels boring or needed yet. But as time progresses, you will want new things; to further progress your character and to keep yourself entertained.
(what's the point of getting 70+ attack if there's no new weapon to wield?)
(what's the point beyond 75+ defense if you don't get any new armour?)
PKing things like only whips will lose it's flavor in due time. I'll bet my life on that.

By the way, not ALL changes post 2007 was a bad one, in fact, I think most people only quit after the release of EoC. Why? Because the combat system is something they like (and that it counter the idea of pures, which a lot of the population dedicated a lot of time into). Personally, I loved RS pre-EoC and wished the backup server was dated then, but yeah. :(

I don't understand how you just don't put f2p pking already it shouldn't even be in the poll!!!! Why are you jeponizing the 40k (at time of post) people that voted but you going to favor only 10k people cause WE didn't make it to 75%. Jagex i hate to say this but if you don't put f2p pking back in the game it WILL HURT YOU in the long run. I know members pking is great but not everyone likes it. Me i find more comfort pking in f2p anyday. Please just give it us.

By only a 100 total requirement you can easily have people jeoperizing the vote and your going to make a mistake!

Next poll you need to be more strict by game time amount or letting the REAL veterans (the ones that had accounts before August 10th 2007) only to vote. I mean its really unfair that were gonna lose if not the MOST important thing that keeps an economy together is by adding F2p based worlds.

I don't know why people are saying no and I have NOT seen a single theard on this forum explaining why no to f2p pking is a bad idea.

You will lose a nice pertange of subscribers if you don't add it in. OSRS could be the next Classic and i don't want that happening..........
