Will be voting no to everything. NMZ magic training does not hurt runecrafting that badly. Want to know what does? Runecrafting bots.

As far as the timer is concerned, no. Afking has existed in Runescape since I started in 2003. I see it being more of a detriment than a problem solver.

The last question is just silly. People who have quests done should be able to choose the bosses they want. This will eliminate boosters in itself.

Stupid poll and it will fail.

who the hell wanted it polled in the first place??? not rly anyone truthfully. Most people just want I nerf I still don't get why they didn't fix it yet without a poll.. Jagex will never hear the end of how op this minigame is.

Now it's official: you added the best melee and magic training methods without asking us first, and now you are requiring 75% support to remove it.

Yea, seems weird to poll it. It's an unintended side effect of an update which should be fixed and treated as an exploit. Its a bug and a nerf.. If the health bar wasn't polled why should this be polled? They aren't to good with their responsibilities towards the game to be honest.

Question: Being able to train magic effectively in Nightmare Zone without the need to use player created runes is having a severe effect on the runecrafting skill. To allow you to keep getting the current XP and maintain the value of the runecrafting skill should you only get magic XP in Nightmare Zone if you use your own runes?

I can not believe you are actually polling a question whether or not one of the skills will be devaluated. You are basically saying you are prepared to sacrifice runecrafters if that's what the community wants. I just can not believe it.

Please tell me why runecrafters are suffering from NMZ? You would think prices of runes are dropping, but they are not.

Sadly the prices are dropping.

Why are you polling something which should never have been in the game in the first place?!

We never voted for these stupid xp rates, nmz was meant to be fun + social to beat quest bosses, not the broken xp handout it is now, I would have voted no if I knew it would turn out as bad as this, and I know a lot of others would as well.

I agree I seriously think that jagex are starting to not even care about the health of the game anymore which I honestly don't get why they aren't anymore.. We already voted for nmz whys it being voted again, I thought the reason to a minigame was fun..exactly what you said but jagex doesn't care about the game anymore so what could we even do.....completely nothing jagex is going on their own ways again doing things on their own and not caring about feedback about the games health.

The poll should require 75% to keep, not 75% to remove.

ya I have noticed that I don't get jagex's logic towards that It rly seems unfair on the game it doesn't rly make sense in all honesty.

Polling these questions the way they are being polled seems stupid.

These xp rates were introduced unintentionally and without a poll (aka a mistake), so why should a poll be required to remove (or 'fix' them). Granted it's been a long time so players have adapted to take advantage of this, but that's no excuse.

Considering they were introduced unintentionally in the first place should be reason enough to change the function of the poll.

Either:
a) Change the poll so that it requires 75% to keep the 'unintentional' xp rates in. (therefore compensating for them not being introduced with a poll)

or

b) Change the poll so that the MAJORITY vote wins. It should be quantity vs quantity when it comes to such a controversial topic.
Im starting to think jagex cant really take responsibility at all for their mistakes.. Either the jmods would only poll it and how their polling it maybe because they support the high xp rates, or they simply don't take responsibility for their mistakes and are scared to admit it. And nerfing it would be admitting.. Be a man not a mouse jagex and nerf it already.. Prove your the better person I mean get real.

dont poll the 5 minute timer you know the 10 year olds in game who want free xp are going to vote no to it do not poll it. this game is full of lazy people

Trading also allows for free EXP.

Should trading be nerfed too?

It honestly should be.. It allows people to bot and rwting.. If you fix that it will fix the botting problem gp swapping clans scamming hacking and rwting as a whole.. Overtime people would actually accept it and adapt to it and the community would be in a healthier state of mind and in general the community would probably be a lot friendlier to one another rather then how crappy it is now adays.

I hope the 5 minute logout doesn't pass. Moving an arrow key will be no different from clicking the square under you, just more tedious and annoying when you're training. Aswell as the 6 hour logout, you may not know you're about to be logged out during combat and may simply be kicked off to log in to a death awaiting.


Think about the aspects that may HURT us instead of the things making the game better. The point of OSRS is that it's laid back and not as hard to get into a zone. I hate the fact people are taking away the AFK aspect of this game just because they feel like it's unfair. I don't think you should be able to afk nmz like that but I don't think you should get kicked off for not moving your camera angle which has been in the game for a very long time



TLDR; I hope the 5 minute and 6 hour logouts aren't implimented as said because you'll log out and into a death and it's tedious. You made Eoc "More engaging" and look how that turned out. You're making "Old school" Into a new school RSPS.
