i am for giving you, jagex, more room to change things without a poll. I do however have an issue with you changing speicific content you have polled. Makes me feel that your like: "we want this done, just throw in a poll, if it doesnt pass we will change it anyway". examples of this is the nmz afking, splashing which u polled, it failed and you did it anyway. later on you reduced drops of zulrah scrolls and this was more than a yr after its release, balancing you called it. you make a bunch of "game changing" updates such as the 1 minute pots and how smite works, you call it bugfix. range void is a "bug", karambwans too. but they have been around for long that they have grown into their "bugged" versions. things that have been around for ages and majority of people use are not bugs just because they perhaps dont work as the dev should have thought. i also reacted on the change to twisted bow you made. you polled a sooo specific item, people voted yes on its stats, fire rate, bonus and all. yet you nerfed it after it was released. you called it balancing i reckon? dragon sword which came along with raids are very underpowered, should you just buff its stats to be better than hasta for stab? but i get it, u just nerf dont buff. you could have tweaked the drop rate of twisted bow as that is the only thing u didnt poll, the other stuff: no. THEN you changed the stats of bandos and supreme. monsters that have been around for decades. without a poll. idk how you explain that one? supreme should be good against melee? and bandos was intended to have alot of mage def on his armour rather than lvl because bandos armour is known for having high mage def (irony)?
alot of these, tweaks, balancing, bugfixes and the integrity of the game changes scare me sometimes. what happened to the integrety of democrasy? you already have alot of power in that sence that you can poll what you want, write it how you want in the poll, and given alot of freedom when deving content: wintertodt
