I really hope you stick to the promises. A lot of the community is fed up as of current and we needed a post to address these issues. I really hope the bot nuke works.

I notice a lot of cynicism and skepticism in the comments. Hopefully these will be allayed with the Q&A sessions and future news posts/content.
Bet ya 100 spins it doesn't.

All of that was PR bs, actions speak louder than words, and your actions have drowned out any meaning that those words might have had.
On the other hand, HTML5 is a huge step in improving the game significantly.

Hey it's Zmaster07, I'm going to start by saying in advance thanks for reading over my comment.
I think, and only I think, that player moderators would help a lot with botting and other topics surrounding that. For if you see someone advertising a gold farming website you should have the power to mute them, or someone using an auto-typer as well. As for botters you can never be sure so you wouldn't mute them and Jagex would look at how you use your powers. I myself am volunteering for the player moderator help and though I am quite certain you will politely decline this request to make me one, I have shared my opinion and that is what I meant to do.
Cheers, Jagex.

This letter seems really nice and all, but there is a point I want to make. If they say they will not be selling gold or experience in the future, then why are they selling gold and experience via the SoF now? This contradicts the statement Mark made.
As for the bot situation. Jagex made all the effort in the world to get rid of the people that develop the bots, yet they're still ruining the game with their masses. Why is that? Is there something Jagex isn't telling us?
This letter is about as reassuring as the sale of 50+% of Jagex to some investors.

"The management team and I have the heavy responsibility of ensuring the future of this incredible and unique game." - Mod MMG
Unique game? All i can do is laugh at this. Sure... that statement WAS true. Ever since this Micro-Payments came about, and, lets not forget the upcoming EoC, Runescape is far from unique.
Incredible? Well, I'd say it was when it actually was unique. Conforming to the rest of the MMOR** world is not the way, Jagex. You're just a few steps away from falling into that pit of filth every other game is in.
Edit: ^ Massive multiplayer online role playing game. If you can't figure that ** out.

Also just adding Jagex as another tip, maybe making runescape easier to use as opposed to having download many things, and getting a lot of information on your computer. Quite opposing these lines, perhaps send new players some downloadable anti-virus download along with a guide on how to avoid being scammed in-game or out.
Cheers, Jagex.

I am really glade that you guys are switching to HTML5! This is going to be an epic transition in the game and I think it is going to be great!
Also, as talked about before, in a past vote the players voted majority on bringing VoIP to runescape. Is this going to happen in the future, or not? I think it would be epic if clans can communicate over VoIP on RS , without renting servers and paying for other programs to do so.
Overall, I really enjoyed this post and put my fate back into Jagex that they are really working for the good of this game. Thanks guys

I've played RS for a long time, 4 -5 years and many people quit after about 1 - 2 years. I don't want to be one of those "Look RS updated. I'm quitting..." These updates are certainly getting bonkers and out of hand, and you could say I'm referring to SoF and probably EoC. EoC isn't going to attract new players and so is SoF. You already lost 9/10 of your players thanks to Wilderness and Free Trade removal. Then Dungeoneering update, many players quit. You brought back W&FT, gained a few more players then over the many updates such as skill nerfs, skills update, armour graphical update, bot nuke, and you could say you lost a few more players from that. This game which is slowly/rapidly progressing isn't really attracting more players. It's about maintaining the amount of old players in the game, which now of course many have quit since 2006-07. This is making me sad and I know every one who have played for a long time don't want to see their own game and hard-earned stats to go. I mean, if RS is going to go downhill, I may as well make up my mind and quit. One player down does actually make an impact.
