The problem is OSRS patronized those streamers. They paid them money to create content. OSRS Jmods told us explicitly they are happy to help the big content creators to make money. They even told the entire OSRS community to vote for certain streamer in their pursuit of personal fame instead of OSRS and Jagex themselves.
OSRS painted themselves into the corners when their patron saint, their most popular streamer and multiple time Streamer of the Year Golden Gnome winner turned against them. They lived by streamers and now die by the streamers.
Damage is done regardless what OSRS do now. It is very very bad PR to the game regardless they say or don't say anything, so why should we expect them to make a statement? For those who expect OSRS to make a statement, what do you expect them to say? Do you really think some Jmod in the high place will come out and say damn right, I ordered Code Red?
