Can we possibly get a poll to make ecumenical keys a bit darker shade of blue so it would be more noticeable on the ground for those people who don't use osbuddy?

Also, can we get a poll for an in game mini-map. The games been out for nearly 3 years without one, it would be a great help to find out where some places are (icons wise for a bank etc.)

support!

Mod Ash... I reported so many mistakes in the Quest Journals and Achievement Journals and the Legends' Guild and the Cooks' Guild...
I don't see any of them! There's a little line in the "Bugfixes" section for this week's update, but I can't see any of it!
I know for a fact that Kiere* and John have been fixing typos this week, but you'll appreciate that we get a lot of bug reports, and these minor grammar errors may not be the most urgent call on their time. Thank you for being so assiduous in sending the reports, and please don't be discouraged if just occasionally we have to deal with more critical matters instead.
Did they save these somewhere? Probably not... I didn't send that many. And last week, your team did seem to have time to fix the examine information of an undead chicken and add an apostrophe to Seers' Village (both of which I reported). They probably weren't busy back then.

Mod Kiere* & I spent a good amount of time working through the reports you provided and then correcting the issues, which are represented in the patch notes as "Corrected punctuation and grammar in a number of quest journals and achievement diary tasks."

As Ash said, these are the most trivial of issues and our priority right now is the two large projects being launched next week, we do keep track of bug reports and you should be able to understand that we can not simply drop everything to address every little obscure grammatical error in time for the next game update.
I actually meant if you saved them somewhere so you can fix them later, or would it worth it to send them once again?

The testers do save reports for fixing in future.

Those things would be possible, yes. Changing the colour of the item is easy - though you'll recall that it generally goes down quite badly when the appearance of an existing item is changed. Adding a built-in world map to the client is a rather larger job for the engine team and would have to wait while they do other work.

will the abyssal dagger still have a -15% damage reduction? or will it now be +0% damage and +25% accuracy?

Well either way, it would be a nice thing to see in the poll booth for the ecumenical key whether or not it passes.

Also, would it be possible for you guys to talk to the osbuddy creators about how they went about adding their in game mini-map to their client to make it a bit easier on you guys?
Thanks for reading this

The poll isn't offering any changes to the damage (or cost) whatsoever.

I understand we have the relevant engine code for the dynamic world map that RuneScape's had in both the pre- and post- RS3 eras. It's really just a matter of having the engine team available to install it. Except there's always a bunch of other things that players want from that team too, so a map just hasn't got to the top of a priority list yet.

I'm really dissappointed again with jagex and how they BUFF a new weapon again, IDC about small updates like more cosmetic or QoL but what's next a new lvl 80 weapon and 80 def gear, it's gonna be RS3 al over again, it's old school, people still play tetris allot, no new modes, just the same 30 year old game, no-one needs to have a new clear all block update on tetris... why destroy a game the community asked to bring back by updating **** like that... if people want new content i think they should go to a game thats not oldschool (they shouldn't update at all tbh) Jagex should really consider renaming OLDSCHOOL to RS 2 again, this aint oldschool no more.

These updates you're describing are offered to the community in polls, and require a threshold of 75% to pass. That's really very high. So, yes, the community asked Jagex to bring back the old school game, and the community also asked for the abyssal bludgeon to be buffed.
