No but it's an EasyScape update. Just like lodestones. But it sure made the pures happy, they could finally access Morytania without giving up their pure status. Of course, if you want to argue with someone that has a pure account that playing with a pure account is easy, then go ahead. I'll grab the popcorn and have a seat to watch.
I didn't think about that. I concede that point.

I've seen nothing in what you've written so far that would qualify you to be a well-known or successful author, or even in their league. You're also breaking forum rules by using vulgarity. FYI. That's not the point. I use swear words to emphasise something I'm saying. You don't have to be a successful author to do that. Some Forum Moderators also break forum rules and get away with it. FYI.

With the water vials and feathers, you can only buy so much at each shop, then have to go to the other shops to be able to buy more.
Have you tried the Grand Exchange?

With the mining spots, those mines are *rarely* crowded, which means you can stay there longer and get better xp rates. Same goes for Ice Trolls and Moss Giants Sure thing, I'll go mine adamant ore in Tirannwn and limestone in Arandar right away.

And judging by the amount of articles written and videos made about pet rocks, they are very popular. Therefore, your argument is invalid. lol k

And you just provided the explanation yourself. The requirement is being removed because DoC takes place in the 6th age. While I personally would have preferred the original quest to remain and DoC to be a completely new quest, I can understand why Jagex did it the way they did. And I don't agree with you on player expectations. Maybe the expectations of players like you whose only reason to play is to do quests, but...that's not the entire player base.
Well Mod Stu gave a decent enough justification for removing the BKF requirement for Recruitment Drive, so I'm content with that.
Questing is all I have left in Runescape. Yes, I know that most players aren't like that.

Fair enough on the first part. On the second part - again, that's *your experience*. Just because you're not getting exactly what you want does not mean the game is bad. Jiminy.
Fair enough. You've provided adequate justification for most of the reasons why you still like the game and its direction, after all.

It probably is not true that Jagex took the easy route/were lazy with this content.
Maybe.

And you do realize that:
-There is a separate tab for private chat, and that you can now one-click to turn game messages/different chats on and off to narrow the view? And that you can now do split chat? And that in RS2, there were also separate tabs for separate chats?
It's not the same. I don't want an unclickable rectangle around my private chat!
Original message details are unavailable.
-That the option to lock customization so that it would stay the way you put it existed from day one?
And you expected me to figure that out on day one? My in-game friend had the same problem, he complained about it to me too. But it's fixed so all's good now.

Frankly, I figured out how to change my combat style and my title in just a few minutes. But then, I took the time to explore the NIS and familiarize myself with it.
It took me that long because I kept clicking on the menu sub-tabs at first. And when I did click on the Combat tab itself, I was brought to the Prayer sub-tab, which didn't have the combat style options. It was only on the 4th or 5th try that I clicked on the Melee, Magic and Range sub-tabs and found what I was looking for.
I logged into the NIS beta in early July, and gave up after 20 mins when I found myself unable to speak in private chat, use abilities without clicking the action bar, and turn off auto-retaliate. Like I said, it's not easy to figure out at first.
And there was a post I saw by someone who had server issues following 22nd July, and was unable to do most combat tasks. I'll edit it into here if I can find it.

Again, judging from my limited experience with programming, it's likely not that simple to have both the NIS and the OIS within the same game. And I for one think they waited long enough to implement these things.
Probably. Which makes it all the more worse with those who are encountering lag or graphical issues. I don't think it was ready for release, though.

I refer you to my point above, that according to a website that tracks active player accounts on MMORPGS, the player count of the game is the highest it's ever been.
You deserve an ASCII facepalm.
No seriously.
Players online back in September and October was on average 90-100k. Then EoC came around, and the number of players online fell to a low of 40-45k, and a peak of 85k-90k, with an average of maybe 60-70k. Since 22nd July, it's been (like you said) 27k or so with a peak of 50k.
Please don't come and tell me that's a sign of a healthy, growing game, and that the player count ''is the highest it's ever been''.
And by the way, I was playing during BXPW in October last year, when there were 120k people online, and the lag was horrible .

Sorry, I'm not a hive mind personality.
Jagex's treatment of its players have alternated between a middle finger and ''Adapt or quit''. And since it's always the case that people will at some point disagree, eventually all but the most blindly supportive would become cynical. Of course, maybe you fall into that category.
