"We have seen an awful lot of excitement coupled with an awful lot of questions", from the way I see it the majority of posts either took this so called proposed skill as a late-April fools joke or simply responded negatively towards it.
Also, responding to the part where you mention how Dung/Summoning will take OSRS to a similar path as RS3, that is not specifically true when it comes to Dung, there is a broad circle of tweaks that can be made to allow it to suit OSRS and not take a similar path as RS3. Changes can be made to the reward systems, the raiding style and its uses outside of Daemonheim (i.*. the dungeons you have access to while PvMing).
Not only does adding a skill similar to Dung save hours and hours of dev time it also does not need so much questions answered with dev blog after dev blog and countless debates on how it'll impact the economy/PvP etc. *HYPOTHETICALLY* you can add rewards similar to chaotics which are tweaked and could ONLY be used while PvMing (similar to the trident of the seas), that's just one example of how Dung can be tweaked.
Another point that I'd like to mention is that there is a huge debate going on on whether Zeah should be repolled due to the time needed for its release. If this poll fails sailing will simply be obsolete due to the continent of Gielinor constisting mostly of land.

One last thing that I hope the devs and community take to consideration, do not rush this new skill because if it were to implemented there's no going back. Remember that.

Wow, the more I read in this thread the more convinced I am that I should vote no.

Y'all don't try to convince anybody as to any reason to vote yes. You only criticize anybody who won't vote the way you want.

@ the idea that revenge voting needs dealt with..

Shouldn't give anybody reason to do it lmao "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -Martin Luther King Jr.

When explaining why you didn't offer us Dungeoneering or Summoning instead......

To be honest I think copy pasting stuff from the main game shouldnt be happening anymore, I understand GWD, Corp but thats pretty much it.. If were gonna get new content to this game it SHOULD in fact be new and fresh , not just copy about something we've already experienced in RS.

Summoning shouldnt even be considered to OSRS, and what comes to dungeoneering, it should be minigame or something like that, not a skill.

E: Im not saying sailing is amazing and should definately be added in OSRS no, but that was my opinion about summoning and DG.

To the people who keep saying "voting no because lack of information". A JMod said on reddit that they will release another dev blog packed with new information and details this friday. Hold your horses and stop jumping the gun.

Somebody read this; if you wanna add a skill do it right. The community want a raiding skill period.

Sounds good to me! It's something else entertaining to do. Everyone should just stop complaining about Summoning and Dungeoneering. If you want to do those skills there's this cool game called RS3 and what do you know? They have these skills on there! WOW

Feedback: If sailing will truly be an enjoyable experience I hope that it won't be fast to level. Slayer is a skill that a lot of people enjoy even though it has mediocre exp/hr. Hopefully the exp rates will be on the low end for sailing.
