I've just been cruising through this thread, and the amount of whining is ridiculous and unnecessary. This game has so much more entertainment value than other games of higher production value, and I'd be willing to put it down to weekly updates and community involvement. They poll this stuff, and when they add it you're losing absolutely nothing. I personally love the update because it's focused on solo play, which I'm sure will feel very rewarding as everyone starts getting good drops on their Ironman accounts. One last comment toward the players saying "May as well make a pure/skiller mode" - I struggle to see how this is solely for mains or hybrids or whatever. You can still make pures and skillers, it'll just be so much more rewarding to figure out ways to achieve high skill levels. We'll probably see more updates as everyone progresses. Thanks to the OS team.

p.s. Please Please Please make Ironman accounts more recognisable in game and on highscores/forums. The admiration of other players is a kind of trivial thing but that's why we all love wearing expensive stuff - to show off!

Okay, so you can't reset an existing account for Ironman purposes.
Is there maybe a way that you can delete my OSRS account, so that I can recreate it and make it an Ironman? (Probably not, but it might be worth asking.) I don't care so much about my holiday stuff anymore.

I thought that you where unable to pick up other peoples drops as an iron man, yet while I was thieving at the silk stall in ardy i saw someone (not an ironman) kill a guard, minute or so later the onion seeds and bones appeared?

Have i misunderstood the rules?

Thank you very much for adding iron man :) I probably won't be playing it myself, but I feel it will make many people very happy.

Sadly certain people still have to complain about every update. Even though I don't agree with the way every update is polled, the 75% here clearly illustrates many people want this update. This update will also barely affect any 'normal' player in any way and the update didn't take much deveplopment time at all.
On top of that it might also boost community (stream,vid) activity and increase incomes from memberships which is benificial for everyone as these things can increase ingame activity and improve the osrs team.

Just wanted to point this out after lots of unnecesary complaints that were often not so well thought out it seems. The osrs team deverves much better.

On a side note,
if you could make it so that ironman accounts can trade items away, but not receive any, people could lock their accounts on ironman without risk of losing it if it is hijacked, and still allow them to sell their 17 armadyl hilts.

This will however bring more items into the economy which might not be good as ironman is actually a decent 'passive' item sink.

Need to fix the Ironman Emblem in OSRS, it doesnt carry over to chat or even on back clicking to know who is ironman and who isnt, it shows who works harder, i dont want to just know im an ironman, i like that other people know i am working hard for what i have

change to ultimate iron man on existing account please.
you that have an account, you deposit all of your itens and gold in your bank, than change to ultimate iron man mode and than your levels are saved, next you "lose" your lvls to 1 and start the iron man mode.
i think ultimate iron man mode is amazing but i dont like the idea to create another account, because if i knew that iron man mode would exist, might i waited to be an iron man
