When did they change the abbreviation from RWT to MTX?

It only took them 1 year to realize EOC was a mistake and give us RSOS. Why did it take them another 6 years to realize RWT for XP was a bad idea?

How about dealing with the Twitch BS? Over-reliance on a service which works in only a few countries is absolutely ridiculous, and bordering on racist considering how many countries exist in the world. Believe it or not, there is more to the world than the USA, Canada, UK and Germany. God, they don't even support the entire of Europe.

Why is it a problem? Because Amazon don't like equality too much. They made their name by forcing the little guys out of business. Amazon (and therefore twitch) don't give a damn about the people. It's a problem, because all the Twitch promotions you're doing aren't available to most of the world. And the ones that are (watch Runescape streams to receive free goodies), you can't even do because Runescape refuses to connect to the twitch account. Errors every single time when trying to link my accounts.

i have same link problem. jagex won't even acknowledge it

If a J-mod is reviewing comments on this thread, that means they can't be working on TH promos.

tl;dr - there is no J-mod reviewing comments on this thread.

I don't have any major stake in this issue. I log in once a week, paroose the forums every now and again. I quit when everyone else did; I liked playing minigames and socializing with other players. Bring players back, I'll start paying again.

As soon as RS started running into problems, it should have looked at what made this game popular and profitable to start with. The roots of the game must have had something good going for it in order to have it grow so much within the first 5-6 yrs.

The challenge of a game is what makes it a game and the difficulty is what makes players wanting to complete it.

Anything giving players a free hand out to make it less of a challenge only shows to hurt the game in the long run.

This has been shown in all games as they rise and fall through out the years.

Thanks for hopefully reading,

What's amazing is how many of us were scoffed at for predicting this reaction, and the ever swifter descent down the mtx slope along with suspected decline in quality/quantity of updates the last time Jagex was sold to its most recent controlling interest.

Predictions fulfilled -- in spades.

Sadly. MTX is one reason i dont go for the Rank anymore. Why be #1 in anything if it can be bought with keys of exp and bonus exp. Although we all use it.

why not start out the update rating system with players getting to rate the game itself as a whole? how low would rs3 rate on average? 5? 4? too scary even for halloween. i wonder if that's why jagex never put rs3 on steam. perhaps afraid to let one of the first things potentially new players see is negative reviews rather than something like a huge inflated account created number or something
