Hello Jagex!

It's Helazoid back with another small suggestion to improve Runescape!

This suggestion involves the Slaying Skill and you guessed it, my suggestion involves Wyverns.
The current status of Wyverns is more than grim. And people are camping Wyverns like it was the new Apple Iphone. I've never seen so many hateful people at Wyverns.

It's very difficult to find a free world to complete your Slayer task. Also people are constantly fighting over the spot. "I was here first", etc etc etc are common comments heard by players at Wyverns.

There are several solutions which you can consider:
1. The most friendly solution is to change the location into a "Slayer Only" area. Only players that are on a slayer task can attack Wyverns. This would dramatically reduce the number of people in that area (which is so desperately needed).
2. The second solution is to change the schematic of Wyverns. Wyverns no longer have a "safe spot" and even Rangers get hit by an icy attack. The attack can damage even the most distant of players for 0-3 damage. The second part of this update is to the elemental shield and the mind shield. Both these shields will have a "special attack" that protects the user from this icy attack up to 50% (elemental shield) or 75% (mind shield) of the original damage. The point is that these changes force any player regardless of level to make some kind of investment to be at Wyverns. Eating food, using prayer potions, etc. Every player would have to eventually bank because of these changes. Note: these changes are only hypothetical and would need to be tested\changed\adjusted to fit the intended solution.

Hello, This has been a problem for a very long time, hunting bots.

I know you guys are doing a great job flushing out bots as many as you can but let the players of runescape also be a part of this hunt =p

Currently I have had success shutting down hunting bots by using flowers to keep them from hunting in their scripted spots.

Currently this is more like a bandage solution as the flowers disappear after a short time.

I suggest to have these flowers stay there for at least an hour so long as the user is logged in and in the current spot.

I understand bots might use this as well to hold their hunting grounds but in most cases it will help true hunters dispel the bots currently on almost every world.

Please consider this idea and use it to remove the plague of hunting bots on OSRS.

Thank you

My suggestion is to not let the player drop their glowing fungus during the boss fight in "Haunted Mine", or at least start a warning message. The obvious temporary fix would be to not drop your only light source during the quest, lest it turn to ash, but it's a completely unnecessary pain to go through (considering the cave stays lit without the mushroom but you can't progress to finish the quest)

Hi I'm a Hoarder and don't sort my Quest items in needed/trash and I was wondering if you could Update the Wise Old Mans sorting feature to include Items from Member quests and maybe even letting him delete the stuff rather than just him telling you what's useless

how about we make the stray dog of varrock able to change depending the care it recieves from the community. for example, if everyone just shoo's it away then it will become what it looks like now (possibly add in a feature where it shies away after awhile of being neglected). If atleast 75% of the people the dog comes into contact with decide to feed it, let the dog become big and called the dog of varrock or healthy dog or something. i offered this dog lobster and bread and its not interested in either of these. the only attention i am allowed to give it is shoo-away's. thank you for your time.

Buff Mithril Dragons! I really love the monster and enjoy killing them as I camp for a DFH, but it saddens me to see that very little of the community kills the monster. What I believe should be done is quite simple. Note the Mithril Bars (Not as easily camped as Steel/Iron so it won't be OP.) and maybe add a better amount of stackable loot to them. Chewed Bones should also have some rework done to the rewards they give other than DFH or add a tier above chewed bones that'll give good items with no chance for DFH.
