I relate to you so much , ive been playing for 10 years myself.. this is the first time i write on the forum... because enough is enough! i understand the GWD.. i understand the GE..I understand the pets... i even understand the toxic blowpipe ( amazing weapon btw please dont let it drop more! :P ) but changing the website is like saying changing the graphics to the UGLY stuff they changed before EOC ( like rune armour, GSs,,,, ) please pitch your Ideas to rs3 and leave osrs as it is ... the main idea when OSRS started was because a lot of people left EOC including myself.. which was enforced to us by JAGEX Illuminati propaganda ( kidding about the Illuminati thingy ) the next thing youll see is having Torva back! which will kill the game...Stay Oldschool...

Though I'm positive about an updated site with responsive design and HTML5 standards, there are a few elements of the draft Id like to change:

the font to look more like the old school font, instead of the RS3 font.
The navigation looks too modern and does not fit the rest of the site.

Hello, yes I am in the same boat as you, as well as many other people. I started playing Runescape in 2005, played for years, then quit when EOC came out. The game had just changed too much, and I was no longer interested in playing. When I heard Old School was free to play again, I joined up and I've been playing every other free day when I'm not at work or studying!
That being said, after spending hours and hours playing and hearing what other players have said, I feel my story is no different from theirs; a large percent of people on OSRS are here because we couldn't deal with RS3 and the EOC anymore. We enjoy the old, nostalgic way of the game and don't wish to see it change, functionally OR visibly!
Lastly, truth be told I never post on the forums. Yet I have taken time out of my day today to post here, and to make sure somebody in Jagex hears me when I say enough is enough, let the Old School community have their old game, and keep your updates focused on your baby RS3.
Thank you!

I signed into the forums just to comment on this and I NEVER post. I'm speaking for people who are too lazy or too busy to comment on the forums. I do not like this new home page set up. I think it looks too RS3ish as many people have pointed out and I think you guys need to leave it as it is. I'm tired of seeing these updates to the game. I remember when you guys said that you didn't want any GE posts on the forums when the game first started, and now we have our very own GE. Personally, I hate it, but it's whatever. Keep the game OLDSCHOOL.. PLEASE. There is a reason why so many people quit this game back in the day and it is because of your updates. If anything, you guys should be working on reverting the forums to the old style, like it was back in 2007. You guys should be working backwards if anything, bring more oldschool things back and quit trying to move forward and change the style and look of the game.
