Let me also add that when I say I want a future: better PvM, better PvM rewards, etc... I by no means am talking about evolving combat!


Yet EVERY UPDATE YOU CLAIM TO WANT LEAD TO THAT...EOC.

And bae, noe, according to the devs, the playerbase for OSRS is STILL GROWING, not PEAKED.

Want to relive all that crap you love? GO advocate for it in RS3 Legacy Mode...you could make that SO GREAT with all your garbage, and NEVER RUIN OSRS at all.

Why don't you?

Guilty, just got mums permission to sign up. No idea what i'm doing here.

Nor do I, when Legacy Mode has all the crap you seem to want here, already waiting for you.

This community is a joke lol. I agree :p

I cannot believe people think specialized polls would work. I also cannot fathom that people defend a threshold that takes all of social media, and multiple re-offers after tweaks of failed content for Jagex to be allowed to pass it. It's actually a huge pathetic joke. Joy is right, no one is this community knows what is best for it. No one. Not even me. Not Joy. Definitely not Avid nor Angel, who are likely alts. No one knows. So trusting 75% of clueless idiots to agree on something?

This is hilarious. It's almost like every poll is a Trump VS Clinton battle! Everyone hitting up social media like "make runescape great again - vote yes for D Claws!" And it passes by a mere %, meanwhile any decent proposal that fails gets forgotten just like Clinton. Hilarious. Absolute moron community.

I agree with Joy 100% when he says people are clueless to their own wants.

I don't want anything to do with RS3. I want a community that grows due to a successfully run game. Guess what's not happening? I guess your education and misunderstanding of analytics really outgrows me though. I cannot keep up with you.

The old school team knows what they are doing.
Yah, so well even, that they let 6hr afk go on for OVER A YEAR before their OWN DATA showed it was a gamekiller, and they stopped it...so well, they didn't fix dspear deaths for LONGER, because, derp, they finally realized how bad it was killing the wild...
Formerly Joy said :
I am worried that if we don't address the threshold we will not see significant updates, which will result in no community growth.


Yah, stop. WITHOUT those updates, the game continues to grow. Just because YOU don't think the things we've gotten are 'significant' doesn't stop the VAST MAJORITY of players from disagreeing with you, COMPLETELY .

Why not? It ALREADY HAS ALL THIS ST00F you want in the game? GO ALREADY! Change Legacy Mode to suit you, and leave OSRS to the OLDSCHOOL.

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.
