I appreciate the thoughts and insights you brought to this thread, OP. But Runepass doesn't appeal to me in any form and I won't participate in the trial or if they put it in the game in the future.

I'd rather do TH because then I can unlock 3 chests and get back to playing the game the way I want. And if I miss a day, I'm only out 3 chests and no big deal. From the way I understand it, you have to complete so much xp in a certain skill over a set period of time. That's too stressful for me and so I just won't do it.

You also said they should have stopped TH during this promotion. But why shouldn't I get to use my 3 keys just because they're trying a new MTX out? If they do shut down TH, they should give people plenty of time to use up the keys they might have already bought as well.

Idc if they stop TH, but not if it means we're coerced to do this other MTX.

TH is not just a source of free keys and therefore free items/xp but also an obligation tied in many things Jagex advertised like Premier Club. Stopping, even just for a week or 2 of TH will have impacts on terms of contracts with the players and other companies. Removing it is just unthinkable.

I also get your point that a lot of players won't want to grind for the RP xp as this can be seen that TH gave Jagex the most MTX money among other sources and xp items primarily come from TH. Those who want fast track leveling probably won't take a bite at RP. That I see Jagex is not likely to run RP as well as games with primarily proactive action based players where game participation is crucial. They will lose a lot more income without TH.

However, a condensed version of RP (say 1 week) with a more balanced rewards that runs once a while like every 3 months may be an idea. And no TH promotion during that week as RP will be the promotion just like what's happening now, and more importantly that's what Jmod actually meant and clearly so to me.

This is well thought out feedback and as such will not get a Jmod response.

Even a quality, well informed post by a fmod will not ever be responded to by a jmod.

Understandable reaction, both of you, though I choose to remain optimistic .

I am ***NOT*** a Jmod.

However, as a random person in the world, not just a player. I won't even bother to respond to accusations like this without exact facts being provided:

"In this regard, I think the one thing I and many others are missing the most is honesty and transparency. Tell us why you are doing what you do in regards to monetisation as opposed to keeping us in the dark. If RunePass, for instance, really is an experiment to potentially replace Treasure Hunter entirely, why is it not presented as such?"

My suggestion is while expressing your idea is fine as a player, but provide your points for the arguments/discussions, but not accusations without factual references. Did Jagex actually say "RunePass really is an experiment to potentially replace Treasure Hunter entirely"?
