Firstly, I do not support the idea of a player council for reasons that have already been stated several times.

Secondly, I don't think a new skill is needed right now. Don't get me wrong, I'm not entirely against the idea. I'd just rather see pre-existing skills get revamped before the introduction of a new one. Too many skills are unbalanced, impractical, empty, or simply dead content. Look at the smithing tables for a prime example.

The PvP updates don't effect me since I don't PK so I don't have an argument in favor of or against them.

New clue scroll puzzles and rewards sound great. I can't think of a reason not to support them.

A new continent is something I've wanted in RuneScape for over a decade. I can't wait to feel the excitement of exploration in my favorite MMO all over again.

All of you kids whining about updates needing to "slow down" need to shut up. I only play osrs for the classic combat, and the nostalgia, the addition of a new land mass, or new weapons and skills won't take away from the nostalgia, it just makes more to do. All of the memories i had of this game were kinda blurry anyway, i wouldn't even care if the made the XP rate x10. When osrs isn't updated for a long time, i sometimes take a break until the next update, because it gets really boring, fast.

Also, if we did have a new skill, it should be something that opens up new areas for training every skill, sailing to different islands, and diving underwater and all of that stuff.

Also, a lot of you are saying how we should "add more uses for firemaking or construction", I say no. We need something that makes training these stats FUN, not just easy. Whats the most fun thing you can do with firemaking? The new mining update makes mining easier, but it's still not any more interesting than clicking on iron for hours. Maybe some new melee training areas, with prerequisites of course, or even just a simple double xp weekend would help us out with annoying stats.

Another point, we need some kind of survival minigame, or a hunger games type thing to bring back some of the community that left us. That would definitely bring people back.

TLDR : Osrs needs new content, theres no need to "slow down"

^ Need to shut up? When last I checked, "Hellraiser" SKYLlNE doesn't speak for all of us. Don't think your opinions are above anybody else, cause none of ours are.


Apparently, that doesn't include streamers though. They get all the favoritism.

How about a skill named CURSES which negatively impact a players str attack and def including negating and turning off a players prayer? Ability to make CURSED ARMOR which when worn automatically decreases opponents stats?
