About the death changes: I prefer an item sink compared to a gold sink. And I would like to keep it a challenge to return to the spot where you died. Back in the time we didn't have a bank in Lumbridge, for easy access to teleports or new gear. Usually it meant dying = losing the items. I would prefer a 5 minute timer + 30 seconds free for all looting.

These timer is ingame only time, and the free for all is on the world where the player is logged in when the timer runs out.



I don't do duel arena often. But that seems a better place to use a tax as a gold sink, compared to ordinary dying.

I think most of these changes are amazing, especially those that limit bots by setting more requirements. Banning toxic people and raggers is also crucial it should honestly be a huge priority, so I'm glad this is being enforced and monitoring should continue to increase.

However, in the case of ardy knights this punishes regular players for trying to combat bots and I don't believe this is the right solution. You will make several players unhappy when there are better solutions to be had such as making better detection systems. E.g. if a player is suspected, make them teleport to a random spot in east ardy, this might be dumb but it should clearly tell the difference... even if a player is relaxing/afking they will look at the screen at some point and run back even if its 5 minutes like redwoods, unlike an autoclicker who will keep clicking after 30min+.

Death mechanics...could write an essay on why the current system is not just fine but superior... I will just say I am largely opposed changing it.

Finally huge props for the team having an open discussion and communicating and taking time to think through before making decisions, I'm sure the community appreciates it and it will take runescape into the right direction.

hey jagex ive done allot of dueling an i think the problem there might be that in fights your able to spin or dance/click on the floor or click on others(other than your opponent) an re-time your attack to hit better ive noticed that from allot of people when i lost big. maby its a glitch or bug. so if you made the fights instance so that the players hit at the same time without possible interruption untill end of duel(only for fights with no food or pots) in hopes of voiding the possibility of re-timing bugs also a blacklist or rating for scammers(1-5 stars maby) automatically so people can be warned somehow and duel ranks maby? let me kno thanks for reading an gl

For pickpocketing I like the idea but I have a better suggestion. Instead, make the coin purses stackable but after you have ~28 or so, you must right click to empty them which would then provide a stack of coins. This way, you only have 2 inventory spots filled but still require the same amount of attention.

This is a good idea, that way you can still continue to hold an inventory full of food if you are a low thieving level and get stunned a lot. This is a signature

I do not like the idea of limiting the drops, i don't want it to be how it use to be in 08 where we could only trade a player what the item is worth. i currently enjoy giving my friends things that are pretty expensive (upwards of 50m). please don't limit that.

I am okay with most of these changes except the duel arena boosting stats because that will make the RWT'ing even more viable. The death mechanics are okay the way they are. I DC all the time due to you guys being ddosed or your servers being super laggy i don't lag on any other games but runscape i'll play anything on steam gw2 wow ESO not lag even a little then log in runescape out of all the games and lag dc all day long why would i have to lose all my items that i have worked for due to a 2 minute timer. GWD enough said P.S. im not an ironmen but for ultimate ironmens they would just lose everything? doesen't seem fair. The last one is the ardy knights situation i like the way they are and you should find another way to locate the autoclickers maybe launch an investigation go with your mod and message all of them if they don't answer back well do what you usually do to the bots i mean if you afk knights you will at some point notice a jagex mod messaging you even if you have your private friends everything off. The bag thing is a garbage idea what about us who are like me only 60 thieving both rcing and thieving are my lowest skills because they suck and are very boring ardy knights is the only thing that makes it not that bad. Most of us bring dodgy necklaces and food why should we have to bank a hundred times an hour and lost a bunch of xp because of the bots?
