@MOD ASH

I spoke to you a few months ago about removing this "World Hopping Limit". (Hop to about 15 worlds in a row then you get a message and you cant login for 2 mins)

I am in a PK clan and we Pk daily in the deep wilderness and when we all hop around worlds looking for people after about 5 mins everyone keeps getting this login limit exceeded. I know you guys added this login limit to help with your DDOS protection.

Would it be possible to get this removed?

I know Lava Dragons / Castle / 50 Ports / Scorpia use to be alot more active but the past 3 months it has died down alot since you introduced the "World Hopping Limit".

Thanks for reading the Multi Pk Community would really appreciate this.

@MOD ASH

Are there any plans for new quests making their way into OSRS? I'd hope for entirely new, not recycled content from RS3 but new stories from around the continent(s).

I think the questing community would be too small to get new quests across polls unless they had bigger better (likely overpowering) items as rewards- would new quests need to be polled even?

I think the questing community is important, yet small.

EDIT: Also would it be possible for the common player to have more power creating temporary mutes? If enough players (not necessarily PMODS) report a bot advertising at the GE within a small enough time, could it trigger a 10 minute, or hour long muting?

Sadly the need for that limit has not gone away, so it will have to stay.

Firstly, yes, new quests would need to be polled. We would be able to do this without necessarily posting story spoilers in the blog, like we did with the Easter 2015 event where I told you the premise of the story but didn't describe the puzzles or "boss" encounter.

Any quests added to OSRS would likely be:
- Path of Glouphrie
- Land of the Goblins
- Something completely new that's never been in RS3.

Those first two options were half-written in August 2007, so we have their near-complete code in the archive. We would be able to complete them, fix the known bugs, and release them if players wanted it. (This would implicitly bring a Slayer update in the form of the warped tar dungeon.)

Writing something completely new would be a lot more fun for us, of course. I like writing quests, and I think that'd be a more valuable update for players too. The new continent offers boundless scope for that sort of thing.

However, quest content hasn't tended to score highly in priority polls. That doesn't mean we don't care about the quest-focused community, but it's worth remembering that quests take a lot of dev time to create. In the 6-12 weeks it can take to create a decent quest, we might have been able to do a lot more things that would appeal to a lot more players, and also have more replayability too.

Nevertheless, I would be very pleased if enough players can show appreciation for quest content to justify that use of the dev time.

Hey Benvil, the Druidic Wreath will be unlocked (if you don't already have it) along with the Mask of Balance when you complete this year's event.

We have a policy of unlocking previous holiday event items in the following years' events, so should there be a birthday event in 2016 (which I imagine there is likely to be) then the War Ship will be unlocked =) .

Thanks for the quick response Krista :)

I'm glad the Druidic Wreath will be there, as it wasn't mentioned in the recent livestream, nor in the blog post.

I'm hoping the War Ship will make a return in 2016 as well. I tried everything during the 2015 birthday event, but for some reason I could only get the cow outfit, so I'm assuming the poor ol' War Ship was forgotten. It'll be the last event item needed to finish my collection!
