All I can say is that if I wanted to play World of Warcraft, I would've played WOW. But after EOC Runescape turned into a boring WOW-like game. I loved runescape just before they added that many easy-to-get overpowered weapons and tools and made our 10-years-long achievements be too easy to get and do. I never got used to EOC and many other things before that, as I was already pretty much a high level and had been playing since 2003-2004, it was really hard. I decided to quit and start again, but now Old School Runescape is what I want. As boring as it is.

small update ideas that would make a huge difference:

being able to rest for energy.
gravestones.
experience counters so we can track our xp. also have xp drops.
when I'm fletching, there should be a 'cut all' option so we don't have to keep typing numbers.
level 3 skillers and people with low combat stats should be able to wield items such as rune axe and rune pickaxes but they won't be able to attack anyone with it until they reach the required level to wield it.
crimson swifts should have a lower fail rate so you can get to higher levels quicker while training hunter.
there should be a fishing shop in the barbarian village so we can buy a new fishing rod if we lose it and the npc should be able to note all your fish so we don't have to drop them all.
when training the fire making skill, when you select a log to burn, it should burn the first logs instead the log you click on so we can bring the tinderbox to the bottom right of our inventory and just click on the one log so we don't have to keep moving our mouse as much.

The new dev blog only has 1 question regarding the new rings dropped by the wilderness bosses. I have talked to other players that have expressed that they will vote no to the question because of the Ring of the Gods but agree with the other rings. My suggestion would be to add another question that would be along the lines of, "If the new wilderness boss drops question passes, should the Ring of the Gods only represent 1 God in the GWD at a time?" Another option would be to have the rings name change when it is chosen to represent a certain God ie. Ring of Armadyl, Ring of Saradomin, etc. I would like to see this question pass but i also don't agree with a ring that would devalue other items like God D'Hide Chest/Chaps and God Prayer Books. A Ring that offers that kind of power in GWD would offer an unfair advantage that isn't comparable to the bonuses offered by the other rings. A ring that represents a single God that would still offer a prayer bonus seems to be a more viable option that is comparable to the bonuses offered by the other rings. An option for selecting a God for the ring to represent could be simple like a right click option that opens an interface that asks what god you would the ring to represent, or more complex like getting Kill Count for the God you want the ring to represent and then use the right click option on the ring. The kill count could be high (100) to make the ring less sought after for low level players or around the same for entering a boss room (40). Another option instead of imbuing the ring for additional prayer bonus could be the high kill count associated with aligning the ring with a certain god. Please take the time to think about how the Ring of the Gods bonuses described in the dev blog would effect the economy of god related items before you poll the Ring of the Gods with the other rings. Thanks :)

in 2013 minus all the drama of evolution of crap. we had several ways to work as friends and community.
1. special creations had a non combat side that people could play associate talk and have fun while doing something.
2. clan chats - were able to make friends and communities threw out the game. and do things together. but there is nothing currently in old school to bring people and communities together. I miss this friendship areas.

and I do not condone or participate in murder. I want summoning to help me do quests and slayer and skills.
examples are
1. fremmy isles quest little more food
2. charging air orbs having summoning hold more orbs. if murderer aka pker attacks me and my summoning attacks them that was there fault not mine.
3.pack yack for auto banking ash' exc or fighting other things and holding more food or item to stay right at a slayer task till done. not banking every chart full.

Resting and gravestones NOOO. This isn't 2009 scape. It's 2007. Get energy potions and stop whining if you get killed, that's part of the challenge.

If Fletching as a Cut All, we're going to get Bots. Makes it too easy nonetheless. Just smash your hand on the Keypad when the option comes up. Also, if that skill would get a Cut All you would have to do it to every skill. Way to make the game super easy and even more AFK'able.

Level 3 skillers create their accounts knowing they won't get 40 attack so they accept the fact they won't be able to wield such items. Don't cater to them, that's their choice in playstyle.

Crimson Swifts are fine as they are, by the time you reach 35 Hunter you never fail anyway.

Run to Port Sarim if you lose your rod. Or buy 10's of rods and keep them in your bank, so that if you lose it you can replace it.

Don't be lazy about Firemaking.

No, this is 2007 scape. Not 2009 - Scape. 5,7,8,9,10,18,19,20,23,24,26 all would take out of the nostalgic value the game has with players. The only updates I would want to see EVER are the ones that came out roughly around 2007 and don't overly change the game. Fist of Guthix and Stealing Creation are right around the same time.

500 Gold Nuggets in Motherlode is too small for a Dragon Pickaxe. Try maybe 1000.
