I am glad they voted no on prestige it is pointless and we will see many more high level players leave runescape to have put all that time and effort into a skill to feel a little on top then loose it again and have to grind all over again. I believe increasing lvls to 120 would be the better option still having 99 skill capes but also having the mastery skill cape for 120 just like dung skill it will open endless doors for new content for the game and also give the master skillers the respect deserved i have said for a long time now increase in lvl cap to 120 is almost a must for this game to continue to grow
i did not vote for prestige. Reason being, as i understanded. even if you have 13m exp or 200m exp it will be like losing extremely much time to start with prestige 2.
a suggestion from me is. What is stopping us from raising the exp roof? or even having one at all?
i could see prestige coming into the game. i just dont want my 50m str exp (the 38m ich more then 99) will be wasted time in the new system.
i can also imagine there being no exp roof. (although problem here can be that rank 1 overall. can be achieved by only doing one skill after lvl 99)
down with rs3! WE WANT PRE EOC ACCOUNT STATS ON OLDSCHOOL! THE ECONOMY WILL BOOM! PLEASE! I WASTED YEARS TRAINING ON RS2 JUST FOR IT TO BECOME RS3 WHERE I CANT PLAY BECAUSE I WANNA PUKE. MAXED ZERKER WASTED THANKS! MARK DONALDS! MUTE ME AGAIN F IT!
Personally, I’m pleased with this outcome. I’d much rather start from scratch than release something that doesn’t work for the players it’s supposed to please.
Why wasn't the EoC polled in a similar fashion then? I'm sure it would've failed (and still would today) if it was.

Just because the majority voted for it, doesn't mean Jagex should have listened to them...simpletons failed to understand the concept, and Jagex didn't explain it as they should have. It would not have reset your xp. It wouldn't have taken ANY content away from players. But no, children listen to whoever complains the loudest.
It was a very close poll. 40% did want prestige and I think that's a very big percentage considering the amount of active players in the game now. Please don't forget this update. Somehow put a prestige system in placed and may I suggest to not name it prestige so that people would not backlash?
Jokes aside (it really wasn't a joke), the prestige system should have been explained in a better detail and in a better light. When you use the word "reset", the majority of minors here in Runescape will automatically relate it to being negative because it has a negative connotation. And when you do not highlight and repeat that prestige is JUST an option, many will just ignore it. I think this was a perfect example of marketing gone wrong. Please learn from this and do better next time. Hopefully that next time, you'll sneak in a prestige system (not named prestige) and not get it polled.
