Whats the point of doing smoke boss atm? I dont care about splashing,you can delete nma afking too, good idea. Rework staff now or just delete smoke boss from the game because killing much stronger creature just to have a small chance of pathetic 1-2m drop is worthless.

I wasn't aware that the RS forums were a place for grammar ***** (we got a character limit I need all the space I can get) but seriously you make more money with slayer and slayer is nowhere near as painful or annoying to do as runecrafting is so saying slayer is a slow skill compared to runecrafting is a laughable comparison. As for Eoc try 14 years and there was way more people back in the day.

There is a huge different between using grammar 100% properly and using basic grammar. I don't mind people using abbreviations or playing the wrong comma/full stop etc, but you posted a wall of text with literally no grammar whatsoever and it was actually annoying to try and read it.

Let's take a look at the numbers, shall we?

From 44-91 Rc you need to make 650k natures and from 91-99 you need to make 792k nats (but double the amount you receive due to double natures)

1442k pure ess costs 36.05m (ess being 25 ea)
2234k natures is 536.16m (natures being 240 ea)

Basically bang on 500m profit . Having gotten 26m slayer exp before eoc came out and currently being 200k from 98 in OS, I can tell you for a fact (and other high level slayers, please join in here) you make no way near 500m, let alone 500m profit.

"slayer is nowhere near as painful or annoying as runecrafting" and I would hope not with the profit you make from rcing. It's one of the slowest skills in the game for a reason.

"saying slayer is a slow skill compared to runecrafting is a laughable comparison", what are you talking about here? I posted this a few pages ago, 80% of people when discussing about exp rates literally have no clue what they're talking about. Depending on the way you slay changes the exp rates completely, but it averages out for most at about 10-25k consistently an hour and that's with a cannon. Rc is about 20k/h on average, so to compare the two is perfectly reasonable.

What's the point in polling these "issues" if you're going to ignore the outcome of your poll.

People didn't want splash casting "patched", so you patch it anyway.

Over half of people want either no change to commission staking or for it to be polled, so you just make it against the rules. Again, not something we voted for, and also you contradict yourself...

"The premise of players being able to give their friends money who will stake it on their behalf is something which is really positive and not something we want to discourage"

"commission staking is now against the rules."

Nice....

The final point on dying with untradeable items doesn't even make sense, you've not made it clear whether when you die above or below 20 wilderness items appear as gold, and I'm not entirely sure if you have made any changes at all, despite you saying you haven't. I was always under the impression items like Torso and Fire Cape always appeared on the ground to be recollected.

I also got to say essence have not been 80gp to 100gp each since NMZ came out in fact I don't recall it ever being this price. I am still waiting for Jagex to fix NMZ as well as it is only a matter of time. The amount of time you put in for Runecrafting makes it not worth cash even before NMZ came and took an axe to nats people were still debating whether or not they wanted to do it. Slayer also trains combat at the same time which has many uses while Runecrafting is just Runecrafting so that it makes it even worse to do.

You never played since the start of OS then, essence was 80-100 gp each. "the amount of time put into rc makes it not worth the cash", so 500m pure profit isn't worth it just from getting 99? How greedy are you?

Of course slayer trains combat at the same time, why do you think it's one of, if not the most overall popular skill?

Thank you for fixing splashing, now please fix AFKing NMZ in guthans and OSRS will be headed down the right path. You couldn't do it back in 2007, you shouldn't be able to now. Why even bother playing the game if you don't want to actually play? Stop being lazy and actually train your account like everyone had to in 2007 and like everyone does in every other MMOR**. The only people against fixing it are the ones exploiting the AFKing. AFKing was treated as macroing back in 2007, and it should be treated as such now.

I keep seeing this type of comment "you couldn't do it back in 2007". Some things that should be changed using your logic;

Do you want one minute logout timer again? That was in 2007, should be put that back in so you have to click before every minute to avoid logging out. It will make those "afk" skills like fletching/cooking etc a lot more annoying.

No slayer points/slayer helmet too. Did you enjoy having to do a burthorpe task everytime you wanted to skip a main task? No kraken boss, no smoke devil boss, no nieve cave in 2007 either.

"Why even bother playing the game if you don't want to actually play? Stop being lazy and actually train your account like everyone had to in 2007".

This is also something I'm getting tired of seeing. Splashers obviously do want to play rs, hence why they are splashing. It could be they have school/work, not much time to sit at the computer, so they can splash for a tiny amount of exp and work on something other then magic when they have time to play for example. Most people are acting like you get 99 magic in a week from it.

Do splashers whine about people afking cooking/fletching/woodcutting etc? No, so stop whining at them for using a game mechanic that has always been there.

"Anyone who is saying "who cares about staff price", you obviously aren't 93+ slayer. I have 8 staves in my bank atm collected from slayer"

False, 20m+ slayer here, couldn't be happier with the update.

Btw tip, you might want to sell your most valuable slay drops instead of hoarding them in the bank, prices always fluctuate.

And crying about it only shows that you only care about your little slayer profits and not well being of the game.
