How can you nerf something that has been in the game for so long, my account and so many other people's accounts have been built around void and then you go and nerf it to the point where it is useless! I understand void was overpowered but so many other things in the game are. Updates in game that can effect someone's entire account should be polled. This update should of been done at the release of osrs to save people from wasting so much time! Unfortunately I don't have the time to build a new account or the confidence in case you go and nerf what ever it is I decide to build my account on. It's a shame but I have no other choice but to quit!

they are killing the game! qbd was profitable as a solo boss. zulrah should be too! we dont want skiller bots to make all the money. give us the old drop table to even make it worth our time... don't change existing updates, vote on and add new updates... or leave the game like it is, like said multiple times above, dont kill the game like last time

Even after the post today about "Further Balancing Tweaks", this still seems like an attempt to shoehorn players into raiding (and prepping them for future raiding content) and leaves Zulrah as dead content. I appreciate that you were willing to "re-tweak" some of the changes to try to compromise with the community, but I'm still VERY disappointed that it was never polled. The vast majority of Old School players were around for restriction of trade, the release of EOC, and the microtransaction updates and we play Old School SPECIFICALLY because we want our feedback to guide the direction of the game. If this was a "balancing issue" it should have been addressed years ago. It wasn't. Once content becomes an important part of how the game is played, it needs to be voted on when changes are suggested.

Ash: You're right, it probably would have failed the vote. Too bad.

Keiran(sp?): Sure, you reserve the right to make any changes you want without community support. We reserve the right to spend our money on any of your competitors' games as well. If you want to design the game around the OS team's vision without any input from the community, I'm sure you can run it on a private server of your own...Don't expect it to pay your bills though. OS fills a niche as a piece of nostalgia for players who grew up with Rs2. As soon as you ignore the community or make drastic changes to the content, players lose their nostalgic feelings towards the game and move on.

I think this was a well thought out update. Serp helm, nothing should be a clear option, there should be comparable equipment. You're right on the void being op for it's requirements. Wildy dropping is a given, i always wondered why you could do that, before.

The zulrah changes has a lot of people angry, and you should listen to what they have to say. As an iron with a main and an obby, I'm not bothered by it. You just made my game harder, I'm fine with that.

I have no opinion on karamja store.

The world map is fine, it does the job. I love the search function. Nitpicking, I'd like a toggle so my map doesn't move with my character. I'd also like to be able to see the whole map. And a toggle to remove individual map keys.

All in all, I see what you're doing. I'm still here eleven years later, if that tells you anything.

Thanks for crashing my bank, bad enough both my hard drives failed this week, but then I wasn't even able to dump my shit.. My bank is gonna be worth about half of what it was originally thanks to this shitty update. My fault for investing in a money method I haven't even made 5m off of yet though obv. Also the Void nerf is stupid, the point of Void is that it doesn't provide defenses, if the requirements was the problem just raise them. Nerfing it's offensive capabilities leaves it useless, and is only gonna make high end ranged gear that was already too expensive even more so now.
