I'm not responsible for Jagex's decisions on NMZ. There was a fair community that endorsed it as a good thing, and others who believed it undervalued their accomplishments. They patched it either way. I wouldn't say Jagex doesn't know how to run their game. Jagex doesn't know how to cater to the tens of thousands of people who all think "they know what is best for the game." No one does, as Max put it. So the polling system is essentially a "we'll pander to you guys if you're willing to work together..."
Which comes back to the:
-There are over 100 unique account builds in game
-People hate updates that do not benefit them directly (hate towards pures/ironman etc...)
-People are worried about devaluing their items from previous content
No one will work together. We'll all get up in fists and say "NO! That's not what is best, this is!!" What you've refused to acknowledge is Jagex themselves, for the third time now, are admitting they are considering concerns towards the current polling system. It doesn't matter what you think, or myself. JAGEX IS SAYING IT MIGHT BE A PROBLEM! Obviously they are worried, and you aren't taking the hint. Nor have you offered a single feasible solution.
