I find it funny when the community all worked refusal of the company.
I mean, you are going the wrong way.
Hahahhaha Very funny.

The company has to understand that they do not work for them, but for us! Players.

I hope they change the thinking, if not perhaps may fail with the company.
Remember, the Rs2 had 200k players online at the runescape gold time, today not even add up all the players runescape old with players runescape 3, had not reached the foot of the runescape once was.

I predict the jagex breaking your company briefly.
wat Arguing with a moron is like playing chess with a pigeon: Even if you win, they'll knock over the pieces, crap on the board, and strut about as if they won.

It has the same issue the RS3 website has: everything's too freakin big. The gap between news articles is a pain, the world selection has a much larger gap from the top of the window to the first worlds for selection, the highscores have been spaced out and the skill listings have been moved to a dropdown instead of just a list of links.

The thing I like most about the current, classic design is that it's economical in how it uses its space which lets smaller browser windows still use the site comfortably. The newer design (and the RS3 website) are designed from the ground up to be viewed at 1920x1520 and narrower, which plays nicely with phones but does NOT play nicely with smaller windows. I frequently have the browser's web page view at around 1280x756 and almost every other website on the internet plays nicely with that, but the Runescape website looks terrible.

Colourwise I can't complain. Just get that layout fixed up and you'll have one-upped the RS3 site.

I can't express how much I am opposed to this redesign. I don't like the looks personally, but more importantly it is absolutely not in keeping with the old school spirit/vibe/feel.

And whatever else you do, for ***** sake, DON'T CHANGE THE HIGH SCORES!!! The current high scores are great for comparing people, looking at all the stats at once, and they load quickly and smoothly. The RS3 high scores are terrible in all those regards.

Do not want this redesign!
