As stated previously, noe.

"unless you are speaking of the mouse in your pocket, you dasn't EVER say 'we want' around here, where the truth is, no matter the topic, the base is divided. Even among those who MAY agree with you that they wan't summoning, don't all agree on what aspects, or how it gets done in this game.

Instead of miring through that garbage, let's just leave it out, k? Original to OSRS instead, thx"

Can't we get Dungeoneering or Summoning instead?

When discussing possible new skills for Old School Dungeoneering and Summoning always come up in conversation. While there are elements to both of these skills that many members of the community would like to see in Old School, we have several reasons for not pursuing these skills.

One of the key reasons for us not wanting to release Dungeoneering or Summoning is that we would like to take Old School RuneScape in a different direction to RuneScape 3. The community have told us time and time again that they want to see more content that is unique to Old School rather than re-creating content from RS3. Creating a new skill, rather than taking ones that have existed previously, gives us the freedom to make a skill that truly fits Old School and will continue to take the game on a path that is distinct from RS3.

On top of this, Dungeoneering and Summoning both come with their fair share of balancing issues. Introducing either of these skills as they were would change Old School in a massive way. The impact that chaotic weaponry or the Summoning skill would have on combat is huge and big changes to the way combat works in Old School is something that the community have consistently been against since day 1. Creating a skill from scratch allows us to mould the balancing around Old School to make sure we aren't turning the game on its head.

means no.

Nope. Pretty much what every person has said thus far.

But before you retaliate: "chill"

We wouldn't want your second flame bait thread locked, after all.

Chill

Does that list you've made somehow make you feel better about yourself?

Seriously, chill out. Is my thread really that threatening to you?

You know after seeing how dragon claws turned from a joke back in 1 April 2015 to reality just slightly one year later, I have to say YES - it's kinda threatening.

Joke suggestions when left unopposed become reality.

If we don't register our strong opposition, who knows one day they might just poll Summoning even though they say they won't add Summoning. After all, they initially opposed Dragon claws too.
