Should we remove the 200 Defence experience given for mounting Kalphite Queen and King Black Dragon heads in player owned houses

Absolutely not wt*!


Grow a backbone and say no to pure catering.


They
CHOSE
voluntarily to be 1 def pures and those accounts are for PKing not PvMing!


If you cater in favor of them one time,
they will forever go back on that
and say "Well you gave us this and that so
why not give us a little more
?" Do
NOT
give into them, grow a backbone.

Support btw :]

It's not exactly catering to pures as pures are already able to kill the KBD and KQ. Its an arbitrary amount of experience that was so obscure to people, it was only brought to anyone's attention because a pure went to mount his KDB head and it ruined his account.
If I can kill the KDB or a KQ and get the head as a drop, why shouldn't I be able to show it off?

This is a completely different scenario that asking to go back to Ape Atoll, that would be catering to pures, not this.

If you can't see that, it just goes to show how narrow minded you are. Believe it or not, Pures also enjoy pvm because it offers more of a challenge.

All looks quite nice although I don't think we need to remove defence experience on construction heads. I presume pures want this but they have chosen to play without gaining defence XP, if you want to show off thier KBD or KQ skill then they can get a pet.
Also I think the unlimited sherlock teleports is rather powerful. Perhaps we can have a timer added to it like home teleport and minigame teleports. - Also please consider this with the duradel teleport RIP Forums :(
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

I don't see why those with OSBuddy would vote no. Most people already use the OSBuddy client so its not too much of an advantage. However Jagex can't really enforce that it be removed from 3rd party clients. While OSBuddy obeys what jagex says since it is run by a former JMOD. They cannot enforce any other clients that may and most definately will be made if OSBuddy were to remove it.

People with OSB would vote no because by keeping the roughly half of the game who doesn't use OSB from having this feature, they would have an advantage over them in almost every situation. You can catch people while PKing quicker, catch the next boss quicker, hop worlds to the next runite ore quicker. If the client gets this feature, everyone has this option, not just users of OSB.

Jagex most certainly can enforce rules on OSB, that is why they have rules governing 3rd party clients. If OSB does not follow the rules, Jagex just makes its usage bannable and ruins its business. The fact that a former J-Mod works(worked?) for OSB is irrelevant, it's Jagex's game and what they say goes.

I hate pure catering, and I support removing defense exp from mounting heads. This is such a trivial issue, I remember the thread that caused this, the poor guy didn't even know it gave defense exp.

While you are on the topic of quality of life updates, please add the option to "ground X" on various items such as chocolate bars.

After months of farming harralanders, I then proceeded to manually buy thousands of matching chocolate bars in order to use them for herblore.

Just imagine how mad I was after I found out that you have to manually click the pestle and mortar/knife and then the chocolate bar everytime, for over 3k chocolate bars. And if you missclick and left click the chocolate bar instead, you end up eating it.

Fix this please, it is very annoying.

This ring of the gods buff is ridiculous. Seriously, don't even bother. I'll be voting no, because time should be spent on better things like 255 buckets.

I do wish for the ring of the gods to be buffed, but I mean an actual buff, not a buff to laugh at.

What Mod ash said on stream for example is what I liked: the ring restores your prayer verrrrry slowly.
This would still be balanced considering the price (it is 8m+ atm, being useless, imagine the price if it had a use).

Also, making it
an actual ring of the gods
, meaning it is an item of all gods (GWD).

If they really enjoy PvM as a pure, then they can get a pet, surely? Nobody actually tours houses saying "Wow, this guy has a Kq/Kbd head what an awesome guy!" The 200 Defence exp you get for mounting it is just a tiny incentive for people to mount it and it shouldn't be taken away because some pures are mad they ruined their PKing accounts. That's most certainly catering to pures. Taking away an incentive because it doesn't favor their 1 defence? Didn't THEY choose to stay at 0 Defence exp? You make sacrifices as a 1 def pure, end of story.

I don't want to be rude but some of the sugestions, not just in this thread, but in the past ones are going in the direction of making this game easier, doing shortcuts and stuff so the players don't have much to do to, everytime there's a complain about something being a little bit hard you guys rush to make it easier, what in my opinion is not good for the game. That's why RS3 is what it is now.
