No support for player council. Just look at those player J mods, terrible idea imo.
how do you even know what the player council does
Giving any player any sort of "power" or anything that inflates their ego just turns out bad. Not once have I seen it turn out good, in any game.

Edit: I don't mean John C or Alfred BTW. I was talking about those youtuber J mods that everyone knows their player account.

I realize John C and Aflred were players, but I'm sure you know what I mean

The question should be if we want a new skill rather than jumping straight to PDC. My answer is, and will be for a long time unless something drastic happens, no.


What they lined up is based on the priority poll and it was one of the highest priorities on the priority poll which would indicate that people do want it, do 75% of voters want it though? Maybe not. But we'll find out when its time for the poll of the skill.

Player Councils is a terrible idea. Like a poster mentioned earlier, it's just going to be a popularity contest and will only give advantage to people who are popular streamers. I understand that you guys want to try and bring balance to the Runescape community but this isn't the way to do it.

NO NEW SKILL. Why do we need a new skill when the majority of players have yet to reach their level goals in the existing ones? A new skill inevitably alters the rest of the game, whether it is through changing ways XP can be gained in other skills or introducing new items that disrupt the current combat or skilling balance. I really don't think it's necessary, and I hope that you will include an option in the polls to vote NO.

I have the same concerns regarding the potential new "uber quest", such updates have in the past brought with them radically overpowered new items/training methods/prayer books etc that drastically altered the existing mechanics of the game. If this new quest is implemented please make sure the impact it has on the game as it is now is minimal.

Please no council. What's wrong with the current system of polls?

tldr No skill no council no new overpowered quest rewards

I feel people on a player council could potentially abuse their position to further their own aims, so I'm not so sure about that. I'm not entirely sure a new skill is necessary yet, certainly not before F2P is released that's for sure. New quest, achievement diaries and trade solution are definitely the things I am looking forward to.

I hope you guys actually let us decide whether or not we want a new skill at all before you start collecting design ideas.

That sounds like the intelligent thing to do.
