That is a really interesting point. I just want to clarify some things that might be useful here.
SoF and MTX updates have given us the ability to invest heavily in our content team updates. I do understand that recently some people feel there has been less updates and more promotional ones. I get that. But please do not for a second think that the content updates are not going to benefit. The content specific team (the team that deal with quests and Al kharid updates etc) has grown massively (I want to say doubled but I am not 100% sure and they aren't all here to go count heads). :P
The developers working on content are not the same people working on SoF and MTX. SoF and MTX *DO NOT* effect the content release schedule and instead is a benefit to it.
I know you don't get to see some of the future updates but there is a lot of stuff in the pipeline which will get people really excited but I have to be bold and say that SoF and MTX allows us to do that. These types of updates are ones that I know the community will love.
I do also get that people think that there are a lot of promotional newsposts, that is true and the feedback has been heard. However, remember that promotions etc do need to be ... promoted? Ultimately these additions are there for people if they want to participate.
On the content side all I can say is there are some really exciting projects in the works and I am sure you will all get more information on these soon.
Finally though, as I have said a few times on this thread. Remember this isn't really a promotional thread rather than keeping people who are a member informed of their free st00f.
Thanks for reading this epic post. :P

Im staying member until october because i bought 3month game card for the flaming skull... if there isn't good content by then i'm perm quitting this game.
All the Solomon & SOF updates are making me rage.
Even still if there is good content i may quit regardless, because of solomon & sof updates.
Best wishes to all.

mm i saw another one like that zach, while its nice that SoF funds all of those projects, i still hate that i have to constantly see that you're rolling out new promotions on the homepage, pushing the "real" updates back.
Of course i have my personal opinion which i believe you can imagine about this that SoF funds the new dev team members, but that doesn't really matter as long as the constant promotions doesnt make them less enjoyable, such as Sizzling Summer gives a million xp while WGS, one of the most epic quests in rs gives around half that.
That and i hate pop-up ads.

Free stoof doesn't exist, someone pays for it, and customers are used to seeing every second ad spouting about free stuff with their purchase. I'd not hype the free stuff too much. Maybe a relaxed Craig Ferguson style could pull it off.
Runescape isn't an infomercial, though it seems be evolving into one. And that fundamentally destroys Runescape. Imagine Harry Potter books with an ad every five pages.
The ads are insulting to me. It would be great to turn them off.

We all want to see a month that comes with 4 decent updates that adds something to a game, and without any buyable success/advantages/gear added.
Since SOF was released you've been telling us that all the money came back to supporting the game and that you've hired twice as many people.
But since then i haven't seen any updates i enjoyed, the penguin quest was dissapointing and overall as fun as One Small Favor(One of the worst quest, designed to be frusterating and repeatitive).
You also counted many things I would put on the patch list as updates, Sizzling summer, 10 year vet cape, Clan avatars that so far don't seem worth it (Hey everyone!!! The person with the avatar is on world 48, if we log into that world we get a 3% exp boost!" And after 5 minutes, "She logged out, exp boost is gone."
