eventuly, you at jagex will keep asking players if they want things, they will keep saying yes yes yes untill we are at eoc again. we don't need updates oldschool is just how we want it.

Must agree, yet some people that play get bored with the way things are and want new content. Some changes may be good, although watching how some draws bots in.

It does seem that they are slowly going in the direction of the way eoc/rs3 runs. Having pvp worlds didn't go well then, and adding like an extra xp bonus to go into those worlds for bait, well, sounds like to me, that is also going in that direction. Why don't we have worlds that has no pking including in the wilderness. Think that would be awesome and the busiest worlds.

Fresh idea without all the pvp or extra xp would be something to look into. Seems to me that massive adventure game is becoming massive killer game!

RuneScape feels like it's stuck in a regressed state because of the lack of content updates and the playerbase is dying as a result, and the joy of new updates/content was always a BIG part of RS. Yes in a sense it's basically playing out that timeline again albeit at a faster rate, but if worst comes to worst the undesirable things should just be limited to a small amount of worlds like some individual posted. As long as the end result compromises with as many people as possible, because implementing new things into "ALL" worlds will never be perfect for everyone EVER.

That said, content such as PvP worlds would still have an effect, as for the solution MAYBE not adding bonus XP in the first place but something else that still attracts non-pkers/skillers etc.

#1 i like teh idea of wildy tag but liek people said make it playable in 1 world or 2. i think you should make a rev cave in wild again and make some pk arenas in wild also like make the mage arena have an underground ladder where players can mage battle each other for items and tokens.

PvP worlds and wilderness with the grace period sounds like an incredible idea. Being able to fight someone without having to worry about being pjed is a great feeling. I know the wilderness is supposed to be a place where anything can happen and if you don't like being pjed then get out and quit complaining. Let's get real here, bringing back Old School Runescape was a great thing, but along with the return of Old School came the community of 2012 which was major rushing and pjing. Old School came back but the community of 2007 is not here. I have been playing since 04 and there have been many many changes to the game (Old School being the best change) and pking has always been the reason I played. I am sure others feel the same way. In my opinion, putting in a grace period during and once the fight is over would bring back many players who have quit because of rushers and pjers. It allows more players to enjoy the pking aspect of the game by cutting out the people who have made pking and the wilderness a lot less appealing than it truly was in 2007.

I would like to have the grand exchange back because it is nearly impossible to buy easy quest items when you don't need them in bulk. To get the items needed for quests you have to make/get them for yourself or spend an insane amount of gp for them. I had to spend 50k for only ONE cooked bass and it took days just to get it. Spamming in w301 was not helping at all. I had to post my request on the online G.E. and it still took hours. Also selling things from slayer drops is incredibly hard unless you are selling whips, rune boots, black masks or herbs above level 20 so you have to keep most of your drops in the bank as if they were junk. The G.e was surely used for merching and it could be said it was not fair for some players but it did make everyone's life easier. Please do consider about adding it in the future even if that future is a year or two away :|
My final request is that you add the quest "Smoking kills" because slayer is not as profitable as it should be (for reasons I stated above) and it helps with the experienced gained an hour, even if is only by like 5k at best.
