I must say, all of these outlines have been put together so clearly and cleverly, especially the Herding skill's explanation - it did an extremely good job of engrossing me and encouraging me to read further. I have to agree, these are they key principles to have in mind when making any change or adding any content to the game as those sort of disruptions are a surefire way to make the players suffer.
However, after much consideration and appreciation for all the other concepts, I have chosen Artisan as my favourite idea. I like its similarity to the concept of Slayer as it primarily involves other skills to train it.
I will be voting NO if we are hopefully given the option as the originalty of the game is what counts for me. Most of the updates such as the Godwars Dungeon and the new items that came along with it I have much appreciation for, but I just believe that a new skill would destroy what Runescape is to me, even though I have the option not to train it. I felt the same with the arrival of Dungeoneering in 2010.
