just make an ironman only world and dont allow ironmans to play in other worlds that way we dont affect them they dont affect us .. they cant trade so i dont see the point in havin them in our worlds

Not a bad idea.

Also, re-poll a skill total requirement to prevent vote manipulation. We don't need any more repeats of what happened with the green dragon bots in 2016.

75% to pass a poll seems fine for me, but if the community wants that to change I'm fine with it.

However, making polls easier to pass for pures and ironmen is huge. A lot of the potential content is held back by people who choose to vote no simply out of spite or because it doesn't affect them. Yes, these accounts are limited and we understand that, but that doesn't mean they should be devoid of updates.

I help moderate/administrate an active pure community forum, I can say on behalf of the pure community/pure clanning community that we would love to see this happen from Jagex.

I don't just think, but I know that there is nothing you can do to fix Democracy. It is a failed concept and a few game developers along with a gaming community aren't going to prove history wrong.

75% is fine. Do not fix something that isn't broken as it strongly opens up the possibility of pushing mediocre updates through. Honestly speaking, do we miss anything important, which is balanced of the 75% limit?

In my opinion what made runescape 3 the way it is is like said by others: overupdating, and passing through unfavorable updates. Increasing the threshold to 80% would in fact made it better for the community on long term as it blocks more disliked updates. If the overwhelming majority SUPPORTS an update it is good. If just a majority supports it, on long term it would be negative.

Also, Do not even consider pulling more updates out as updating the game every week with a semi large update. If a weekly update is pushed through, dead content will be created too quickly, not even to mention the speed the game changes. Example would be again, what happened to RS3.
