U guys can for example have the 100k pay mechanics for ironmen of any kind separate and 2 min death mechanics for normal players. so everything is settled. If i would be you, id set a vote for ironman to be on a sepparate world just for them so normal players dont interact with them at all, like permanent. so they dont interfeere with oldschools mechanics.

I'm not sure how I feel about the pick pocketing changes.. Thieving is already tedious enough.. For skiller's, pyramid plunder is far to risky of combat exp, and blackjacking is a no go, it feels like a punishment to take away the best way for us to AFK thieving. Also, it seems like a really out of place thing to target to stop 'auto clickers' and adding an open all button makes the whole thing pointless, I can't imagine it'll be hard to add an extra 2 clicks into an auto clicker to open the purses and carry on...

I've made a post talking about a few specific updates that was mentioned in this regard, and it would be cool if you (guys) would check it out. It goes in much more detail then what i would be able to just type alone on here, but it's main topic is the Thieving / Hunter aspect, since that is what would concern me the most, considering my account is skiller based. If you are interested in checking it out here is the QFC.

The TL;DR is basically as such:

I dont think going the way, that it described in the blog, about it would be the right choice. It would effect a lot of players in a negative manner while not really solving the issue. I've personally done a lot of thieving over the past few weeks, and my experience is quite the opposite as of what it is believed to be. Auto clicking, bots, there will always be people who want to cheat, and break the game, but just because 1 person (or however many we are talking about), is doing something wrong, i dont think everyone should get punished for that.

The last part i want to add, that i haven't talked about yet, is something i cant help to wonder about. Doing thieving i've been talking to a lot of players across many of the available worlds, and have yet to come across a person that "seem" to be breaking the rules. I understand that people are or at least sometimes "baby sitting"? i think it's called, their bots or programs, but everyone i've bumped into have been very talkative, and responding.

With the weeks i've been thieving, i've managed to claim a decent rank on the High Scores, which i would see as proof that, it's not as big of a issue as it's being made up to be. If there was a ton of players breaking the rules, or abusing a certain part of the game, which is thieving in this case, i would think that a lot of players would be on the High Scores and therefor make is super hard to climb, which it really wasn't.

Best wishes, and check out my post!.

I thought the changes to the DA would be neat but I wouldn't want any cash taken from me to be honest. I know what you're trying to do and it seems like a good but that just takes money from people that don't have much to begin with. I know it's not a huge amount but any little bit helps. I'd love to also see something like the practice worlds implemented into the DA, that would be neat, like a level 3 would have all 99s (attk, str, hp and def) and choose the weapons from a preset that they can click on the menu. The choices should be the items that are mostly used like Whip & DDS, Only DDS, Only Whip, DH fight etc, that'd be really interesting to see.

I love every single one of the proposed changes, especially the staking tax and being able to stake at max stats without being max. The tax would be an amazing gold sink, and getting more players into staking would only make the tax more effective!!! I love this idea along with all of the others! Stop the bots! Drain the gold! I love this!!!

I would like to add that as well, when you are a skiller and need like 26 cakes in your inventory then good luck ever doing thieving, you wont be able to carry any purses at all, and it would Litterally ruin thieving for skillers. I still recommend people to check out my post about it, but i just wanted to add that to the list. Ruin game content for all 10 hp accounts like skillers etc is not somthing you should do at all.

When are these expected to be implemented?

It seems it is taking too long to put this forward. At least the least controversial ones like the anti-dragon botters should be implemented as soon as possible.

Green dragons are bot infested. It feels terrible to go through them. Would a JMod care to provide scheduling details on this much-needed integrity updates?

Thank you,

the problem with death atm (in non pvp situations) is that in most cases it dosnt remove items from the game. my suggestion would be that youre inv goes on the floor for 2 mins. then after that 2 mins the items disappear(gp dropped is lost forever) and you can reclaim maybe 70% of the value(in gp) of the items lost from an npc neer a respawn point.

i think that would make a reasonable balance between death being meaningful, some cushion against server/isp related deaths and making a really needed item sink.

ironmemes could reclaim there items instead of the 70% gp value as ironmeme items dont effect the economy.(gp dropped on death is still lost).
