This is not an oldschool update, but an update forced by 'the powers that be'. I've warned about this before. If the boss at jagex decides there isn't a poll needed for content because of economical reasons (a partnership with WWF), there won't be a poll. Not a good foresight for the future.

Agreed. People will defend it because "muh charities", even though they could just donate directly to WWF.

The update itself is very cute. I think it's nice that jagex takes the time to support such a worthy cause (and gives their players a chance to do the same).

I do understand the comments regarding the lack of polling being an issue of integrity of the game (when the players were promised no additions without a poll). Had they done the event with no in game reward tho, nobody (or few) would have bothered to even look at it (and it IS cute). It's a fine line.

It was disappointing that the reward was a toy rather than a pet (as if jagex only supports pvm as a means of obtaining pets; which kinda shoots yourself in the foot jagex).

I think it should have been (and should be changed to) pets.

I also think you should add the seeds to the game. Or at the very least... have courage enough to poll both. "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -Martin Luther King Jr.

Not happy about this, bonds on oldschool are meant to be used for membership, and nothing else, as polling has shown even name changing using a bond failed to pass.

This event directly manipulates the demand of bonds, without asking for a poll. Oldschool bonds have a very different economy and this kind of promotion is not appropriate for it. Very disappointed.

Please give us an ETA on when zooming, resizable chatbox, and the upscaling of the UI will take place. Week after week after week I hope it comes...just to be disappointed again.

Also wondering when we'll get the GE price history on the website. There hasn't been much communication on any of this stuff so I'm thinking it's been abandoned or forgotten.
