"MTX is a major part of the game’s income"

Why can't you just double membership instead? I personally would prefer that and not having the scoreboard's having all the people that buy keys at the top all the time. MTX makes it almost pointless to go for a hiscore after comp.

There are currently over 250 people with 200m exp in all stats and the monthly/weekly hiscores always has someone at the top with an insane amount of exp during promotions.

The scores are already tainted by TH, removal of TH will not change that. Personally I would quit if they doubled membership and I suspect a lot of other people would too... as well as putting off potential new players.

LOL hell no. runescape is 9.49 a month...doubling it to 18.98 a month is insane. WoW doesnt even charge that

Why double? TH is only 22% of net profit, 20% more expensive would be ok, imho.
This is not taking into account jagex is already swimming in cash and could take the hit with no consequences to running operations whatsoever.

No support.

Unlike some ppl, i dont believe most of us here have enough to pay nearly 20$/month just for a game :@


Agreed, if jagex isn't going to get rid of treasure hunter, they might as well make RS3 f2p so as many people can enjoy treasure hunter as possible.
Don't forget – RuneScape members get TWO free spins a day instead of the usual one!

F2p has enough to be able to enjoy th.

Fletching lamps should be f2p.

Only tell Jagex to raise membership price when they make more content people can enjoy. Until then, they should lower it to interest more potential buyers. Raise the cost of Bonds instead because it's too cheap for the value they can sell for now.

Was $5 for a 7m bond, now it's $6 for a 20m bond,
