I usually try not to complain too much, but I've been really disappointed in the last couple month's Behind the Scenes. In fact, besides the World Wakes and some of the small technical updates that make certain tasks a little easier, I haven't really found any updates to be excited about so far in 2013.

I know you guys said we were getting TWO new skills this year, but here we are nearly halfway through and nothing has even been hinted at either one... Not to mention any news on the new elf quest, and you're already getting opinions on whether you should continue the gnome, dwarf, or pirate quests?

I love this game and have always thought of you guys as great player-focused developers, but it seems like the improvements are starting to slow down to a grinding halt, and you've been focusing on content that nobody is really asking for...

I have been aching to try out the new RS3 beta! How will we know if we get a chance to try it out?

Also, a little problem I've been having is my weapons don't do as near as much damage as it used to. For example, I train on Mature grotworms in the cave to the West of port Sarim. 2 weeks ago, My Zamorak Godsword killed one in less than a few seconds, and recently, I can't barely get a hit on them. Like my accuracy dropped or something, Please tell me what happened :)

Excited for the beta, Other than that, nothing in it for me ;) I appreciate all the work you guys do, keep it up!

Hot on the heels of last year's *Mad May* comes this year's *U Mad Bro? May*, with even less content and more community-alienating microtransaction promotions on top of even more broken promises. Looks to be a smashing month.

But remember everybody, this is OUR year! jagex said so...

Where are those pesky 'TWO NEW SKILLS IN 2013'? Nearly half the year gone and no further MENTION of them.

Time to nix the cluster**** known as HTML5 beta. It's obvious jagex has no one capable of programming such a thing. Let's get on with CONTENT, and FIXES to what YOU (jagex) have recently and over time BROKEN.

Where is it you recruit those Keystone Kop programmers from?

Your weapon didn't really get nerfed but your skills matter a lot now. I just looked up your skills and they are all 70+ in combat so this is why you are not doing as much. Also the combat triangle got much more strict which is why your hitting less. Correct me if I'm wrong but grotworms are a magic based monster, since your using a godsword, and grots would be strong against mele. This would make you hit less, I hope this helps you out!
