I honestly think the most important thing right now, is to consider that this is a different world than it was in 2007. DDOS attacks were essentially non-existent.

Why not allow players to buy an item back like a fire cape (set a steep price), void (also a steep price), and other items such as a fighter torso from the person in lumbridge who finds lost items. We completed the challenge to get the items, we spent the time, why make us do it again?

I understand people would like the game to remain the exact same as it was years ago, but we must also understand that years ago these problems really were not anything as prevalent as they are now. Players do not lose a fire cape or void in PVP since they can pick it up (unless in deeper wilderness of course), so why should we not be able to simply buy them back in any other situation? I think this should be polled, with a detailed explanation on why it is even being polled.

I don't believe skeletal wyverns need a drop nerf, and this is why:
- Requires 72 slayer to kill them which is a grind and a half!
- They barely drop there best drops frequently anyway I spent 6 hours+ at wyverns and only walked away with around 20 bstaves.
- Why ruin a money making method for people like me who spent ages grinding to 72 slayer just to get it nerfed.

Dear Mod Matt K, I was wondering why doesn't the OldSchool Client have a world map on it?
Few times i've been struggling with some locations because the lack of world map. I think it would be ideal to add the world map for quick use. =)

Because of these DC issues, i was doing the Haunted Mine quest last night. Was on the final boss fight and the boss was below half health, to which the server induced a Disconnection and costed me my Guthan's Spear, Helm, Obsidian cape and my Dragon boots!! After the server came back online i tried to run all the way back to the boss for my stuff but couldn't get in due to needing to do the glowing mushroom part again! I'm very frustrated about this as your Server Problems has now caused me to loose items which I've worked hard to achieve. THANKS A LOT RUNESCAPE!

From A Frustrated & Angry Customer!

The attacks seem to stop during certain times of the day, It seems to be getting better but like Mod Ash said on twitter "The sysadmins are out at the hosting facilities overseas working on that. Restructuring a network is not a quick job."

I haven't disconnected today at all thankfully. I also seen on their twitter where they threaten to attack old school that one of their members was arrested for something else, karma is sweet.

No! Please leave zulrah alone. I don't see any indication that he has ruined the economy and he is very balanced with his drops. I want to cover the cost of doing him with some profit. Some of the drops you walk away with 36k leaving you wonder if it covered the cost of flake usage and other supplies. I don't want zulrah nerfed to where you just break even or a hair above like everything else in the game. I go to bandos and its a joke because i get low leveled items worth nothing mostly. I go to abby demons and i get steel items, useless herbs, and if im lucky a good rune item to alch thats worthy of my nature rune. All you people crying for a zulrah nerf quit ruining it for people like me who greatly enjoy this boss. If you put in the time and grind you should be rewarded for it as long as your not cheating. I'm with jagex on this one. It is perfectly balanced as it is and don't ruin zulrah for the people who put the time into it please!
