- In response to Earlover29

I would have higher confidence in the recovery system than that. The team reviewing recovery requests may be able to depict the time the account was compromised and single out the information that was compromised versus your other info which is only known by you, the account owner.

If they truly do not have email access, that is a good thing. May I also suggest you add two-factor authentication to help prevent a similar scenario?

It seems the owners are determined to add a new skill, even though it's been made pretty clear that the players don't want it. They're just going to keep changing their policies until they "get players to agree" that they can do what they want.
The last skills that were added before I quite RS3 were summoning, divination, and dungeoneering. They were horrible!! So bad that I can't decide which was worse. Given this record, I have little confidence that the Jagex team will come up with a skill that's any good at all.
Most of the new content they've added to this old game is just a pain in the neck.
- Raids. Hey, if I wanted to play WoW, I'd play Wow.
- Bosses, bosses, and more bosses. Killing bosses multiple times. Again, not this game's strenght.
- Great Kourend. I only go to the guilds (which have been very good additions) and where I have to go for clues.
- Fossil Island. Meh.
- New slayer master & slayer cave. These are fine and actually placed in decent places.

So, while it is possible that the Jagex team would actually come up with something tolerable, the odds are not good.

As Jiminy Cricket famously sang, "Leave well enough alone."

Does anyone know if there's an issue regarding skill points, particularly magic. I've noticed the past few days i get no skill points for using runes to teleport. I've had the same issue intermittently with range firing arrows and getting no range points, melee weapons too.

Thanks Been playing since the early 2000's, maybe 01/02, on and off in between but more on.
Playing OSRS lately on mobile is fantastic and keeps me involved when not at home.
Over 20 years and the game still fascinates me, well done all at jagex, keep it up.

Hello, that's strange, never had a issue with gaining experience points in skills. Try toggling your XP icon on your screen, maybe it's disabled so you can't see the XP drop as you teleport?

Personally I'm interested to see what a new OSRS skill would look like..

I've only been a member since like 2021, grew up playing the free version from about 2005 through to 2008. All of those members only skills have been new in a way, but to think about a brand new skill being applied to a 20+ year old game is just really fascinating to think about.

I don't really play for the bosses or whatever, and without going into detail I'm not a big fan of Runescape's quest structure. But for some reason, the skilling in this game is endlessly entertaining. Always loved mining and smithing, and I've really enjoyed having access to fletching because it also grants you useful items by letting you make them yourself.

Have your complaints or whatever, but I'm looking forward to having a new skill. No guarantees that I'll like it - not too flash on very grind-heavy skills with little/no tangible reward, personally - but giving that skilling is the lifeblood of this game for me, the prospect of a new skill is great in my book.
