We saw essentially no positive responses to the idea of LootShare. The negative far outweighed the positive.

I'm fairly certain that the percentage of people who read the dev blog prior to voting is pretty low (probably not even 50%), especially in cases (at least, in the past) wheres there's 2 or 3 edits to it (with no indication on the home page) and/or subsequent dev blogs on the same topic. These forums used to be the one of the most active on the internet - that's certainly not the case anymore.

In short, I don't think the comments on these can be taken as the entire community's opinion on the topic. Plus it's a lot more likely for someone to post on a thread if they don't like something than if they do like something.

In response to the removing the LS offer and switch to shard share:

Jagex, I don't know if you've forgotten, but most of your community does not post on these dev blogs so even if you didn't see any positive response, IT WILL still be worth your time to poll these two options side by side. I will be rather disappointed if the only thing polled is shard share.

I really liked the options offered last dev-blog and was hoping that you'd poll all of the options and each specific tid-bit. I think the only way to do this right is to do it carefully and thoroughly which is not what you're doing by only polling one of the options*

This is stupid what the heck is shard share, like ok you claim lootshare had negative

feedback without even giving it a vote, then you guys come up with this idea, why?

This was suppose to be osrs, but its everything but that. Also when you propose updates and

go with the idea of the 75% community, keep in mind that some updates have no right to

even be judged by a percentage of that. Like d claws update, people cry of rushers and crap,

but you're in the wilderness....... It's suppose to be dangerous. You are going to get rushed/

pjed no matter what. I swear the way the group that comes up with the ideas, and the way

they are implemented is so unorthodox. No one cares about the excess gold in "OUR" game

but you. You do a slapdash job of even getting plausible solutions together to rectify

situations. Just do lootshare and coinshare, it's that simple. I look at rs3 and then I see

people playing w.o.w. Not hardly a difference, Runescape is no longer Runescape it's a

knockoff of the competition. Like seriously like this shardshare bull is even .000034%

feasible. Why is it so hard to be original? It's nice how most if not all of us were force to

restart our accounts in order to enjoy this game, only for you guys to jerk us again. You only

live once and I as well as others have spent more than enough time the first go around.

All of those heads and still not enough brain power to bring about something that's decent,

not even mediocre. SMH

Ill be voting no for this.. i was all for the original loot share option

IMO you should poll all 3 ideas and let the community in game vote on it then offer the one that passes.

I much prefer the idea of having the highest real offer in the grand exchanged filled for an item and the coins from that being split between your team first before turning it into shards.

- If your team gets a big drop it looks for the highest offer on the grand exchange, completes it and shares the split between your team in coins
- If there is no grand exchange offer the item then gets turned into 300 shards and split evenly with the team

Either of these systems or both together with the smaller drops having an entirely indiscriminate drop chance for everyone
this would be a great way to have it im not a fan of the shard by its self so if its just shard im voting no on it
