this makes me so angry the only reason why i started playing runescape again was because it was the way i enjoyed it pre ge pre pvp and bh worlds and pre god wars this will be the final straw runescape will yet again lose my money. i have a idea if ur account wasnt made in 2007 u cant vote in the poll!!!!!!!


It's rs2, not 2007scape. Seems like so many people that were proponents of that 2006 rsps are also the ones who can't accept good updates from 2008+.


From one generalization to another... that's like saying the only people who want all these changes are 2k12 prods.

See the problem?

I've got a great idea for incentive for skillers to skill in these PVP worlds. Instead of offering an "xp boost", you could simply recolor or make slightly variations to the existing models for the most popular methods of skilling and/or item collecting.

As we all know, people have their own training methods. Some value the fastest xp/hour, while others want the most profitable way to train a skill, while others want a balance of both.

Pvp worlds for skillers must offer additional rewards for the risk of being pked. Pvp worlds will offer "optimal experience per hour, profitability, or a balance of both" but only for those players who are truly cunning and skilled at the game who are willing to sneak around the world, and have the ability to elude the pkers.

My idea explained:

Creative descriptive word- popular resource name here, with changes made to color, etc with slightly higher level requirements then non pvp resource that offer slightly higher xp/hour which can be made into weapons, armour, etc that have slightly higher stats then their "normal" counterparts. They also look more aesthetically pleasing for the most part.


For example, "fine yew logs" at level 65 woodcutting on PVP worlds could offer slightly higher xp/hour rates then chopping normal yew logs on a non pvp world, and they'd offer higher firemaking, and fletching xp /hour for the logs. To fletch "fine yew bows" you'd need "fine flax" which could be made into "fine bowstrings" etc.

For fishing going the "profit route" on PVP worlds, you'd have giant lobsters that give more cooking xp so therefore can be sold for more, and they heal slightly more then regular lobsters. For the fastest xp, I'll use barbarian fishing as an example, you would catch "leaping rainbow trout", and "giant leaping salmon", etc that would offer slightly higher xp/hour rates on PVP worlds only.

This content would need to be balanced to ensure that it doesn't become "dead content" or overpowered, but it could work

"good" is subjective.


I would agree.

''Pvp worlds for skillers''

Nope, couldn't get past that oxymoron to read the post.

''Pvp worlds'' are NOT ''for skillers''.

See the problem?


You make a valid point, but I remember reading the 2006scape (I think that's what it was called) forums and it seemed like every player on there was automatically against any update past the cut-off date, even if it did help the game out.

Perhaps one of the obstacles is that many have different perceptions of what might ''help the game out''?

Anyway, my point was that it's not reasonable to generalize any particular group.

You really do like to twist words, don't you? :@

By helping out I mean creating a healthy atmosphere that promotes the longevity of the game. I know I wouldn't have kept playing rs if it stayed stagnant for all those years, and weekly updates are what made rs the great game it is.

What words did I 'twist' (according to you)?

I see none. I simply offered that NOT everyone shares the same view on what 'helps' and what 'hurts' the game.
