@ mod sween

Is it possible that you can share this data with us?

Please don't leave us in the dark here.

Also until mid March (which is still a month away), is it possible to at least settle on a middle ground drop table for revs/ re-allow cannon usage in the caves?

Currently they are no-where near the polled 2m/h.

Not going to lie ... this feels like a huge slap to the face for every pker and anti pker out there.

Osrs's 5th birthday, you could have picked a less subtle timing you know.

It's been almost 4 years of false promises since the last wildy rejuvination, yet you still don't want to give the wilderness proper dev time or attention?

If you're really serious about this then delay raids 2, and give the wilderness a proper rejuvenation.

Marginalizing a sub-community of your game leads to them inevitably becoming a minority.

If that is indeed what your company wants then keep going, you are heading in the right direction.

Removing cannon was smart, although it was stupid you could use one down there in the first place...

Everything else you have done in your "hot fix" is just another awful, ill thought out update by notoriously useless company, with a track record for doing horrible updates and "killing" there own game.

Either way removed members from all 3 of my accounts, and i intend on quitting this game once they run out, if not before.

Modsween, how is it possible that* you guys believe you*re doing the right thing till mid march??
Take it as a business perpective, lets say Mcdonalds removes theyre mccaffe which mostly everybody loves hence the revs drops, if ud be removing the mccafe your employees will stop going there and go enjoy coffee at starbucks or tims etc. By removing revs people wont be playing anymore hence all the replys on this post by coming back to osrs to play and enjoy the caves.
By waiting till mid marh which is very very unproffessioonnnall, is not logical. Youve witness on this thread 99% of people are mad.
The number one thing in a business is NOT TO have pissed of employees and to DRAG IT FOR WEEKS hence whats hapenning with your mid march??
Put it back as previous like legit now and u wknt have any more pissed off people
And by stating in your message * the right move* clearly it is not, how is the activitt in the revs now? Dont tell me its an amazing update since theres like 3 people per world there. Rip

I've given it some thought before replying and I will say this. The GP per hour, was completely fine, just not the cannons. Now onto my next frequency, it is very safe to say that the resources dropped was not good for the economy. None past or present was a good idea for this level of update and wildy rejuvenation.

I've never seen this implemented in any other content, but I'm sure others would agree that since no good unique items were dropped the best way to deal with the resources was to just change the drops strictly into coin drops. Every now and then I'd randomly get a dragon dagger drop, cool that's 18k coins now.

I seriously think that by changing the items into simply cash drops close to previous rates / prices of consumables / resources would be the best fix. I will also say that since the update I've not even bothered to go waste an hour finding out for myself because clearly people have done that for me. I would love to see revs back at 3-6m per hour, but I seriously think your approach is wrong. Why not remove rev caves completely for now and just work on it... test it yourself before launching it live because as said before flip flopping and changing your minds is just insane.

Do you mods remember pre eoc? You go to the revs and spend 6 hours you get a unique worth over 25m, that's what I remember doing when I was forced to rebuild and the feeling of overwhelming joy I'd get when I received something like a statius war hammer. Make it good money per hour, keep it fun, keep it alive.. please just figure out a good way to sort this mess out. Also I'm sorry but a 16m statue doesn't cut it.. but I have faith you guys will get it right by 2019!

No!! you haven't done the best thing!! You severely reduced chance of getting any drops and i quit killing them since 45 minutes for 200k is not even close to 2m avg.

You should come and kill thme yourself!

R.I.P revs!!
