Question 1: Why not both? Website for feedback and wordly feedback and in-game just the voting and rest?

Question 2: Yes, why not. But only if the system is so the targeted person have yourself as a target aswell.

Question 3: Yes, but make the duration half the time or something similar, (maybe abit more duration then the half of the original duration.) So you can choose from taking 1 mixed super pot and have more food but not as long duration on the boost or give those 3 food up for a longer duration. (This isnt really required but maybe a good add to not make it so overpowered.)

Question 4: Yes, because losing +1's because that you are stunned by 40+ players with dragon spears is pretty annoying and frustrating.

Question 5: Yes, why not? It's another good way to profit from pking even if its a small amount of cash dropped.

Question 6: Yes, I dont see why this update shouldnt be added if Alching already have it.

Question 7: I have no idea what it is so, no answer.

Question 8: Yes, if you guys add a item noter aswell but maybe change the way to get out of there, like making it more riskful to be there, and if you get cought its a hard time to escape?

Question 9: Yes.

Question 10: Yes, please!

Question 11: Yes.

Question 12: Yes. I dont think it would affect the game so much.

Question 13: Yes, that will help alot, and make it so fights dont go on top of each other, please.

Question 14: Yes, of course.

Question 15: Yes!

Qusetion 16: Yes, and maybe to make it roam around the house if wanted? Would look so awesome to have all of the pets roaming around the house and looking cute.

Question 17: Yes, joining the Minigame Chat seems abit pointless if you already are in a chat.

Question 18: Yes.

Question 19: No opinion.

Question 20: No opinion.

Question 21: Yes, but make it so it doesnt seem like the weapon have a special attack or add a toogle to it, because its already disbled in Orion.

Question: 22: Yes*

**: Maybe abit long but hey, its feedback ;)

My answers to the questions:

Poll boots: Yes it would make it a bit easier, as I personally misses some polls, because I'm more ingame than on forums.

Bounter hunter target system: Yes

Super combat potions: Yes, it makes "Potting up" easier.

Delay on "Shove" special attack: yes it Would make luring harder which is good

Recipe for disaster gloves: Yes Although I would much more likely see them on the ground and them only costing 100k, instead of 130k

Superheat and Enchant "Queue": Yes

Marks of Grace on all courses: No, it would turn some rooftop courses into dead content.

Furnice and Anvil in the Resource Area: Sure why not, more skills to train then.

Improved Barbarian Assault rewards: Sure, it would make them more used.

Penance Queen Pet: Yes.

Grind-X option on Bird's nests: Yes.

Ranged defence on Bandos boots: Given they are melee boots, then yes.

Arena for "No movement" duels: Yes.

Iban Blast auto cast: YES YES YES YES OH GOD YES PLEASE DO IT! (I hate clicking for every blast)

Pet Insurance: Yes.

Menagerie in POH: With the continous increase in pets available, then yes as it would probably provide useful, in the future.

Minigame Teleports, without joining chats: Yes, since some chats like Nightmare Zone or Shades of Mort'ton is mostly full.

Previous names tooltip: Yes.

Ankous increase in Dark fishing bait: No.

Graceful set bonus: Well 30% is perfect with the Stamina potion, which gives a 70% decrease in run energy falling when running (As it was probably intended to) so yes why not.

Special attack bar, without weapon with special attack: Yes.

Right-Click exit for pyramid plunder exits: Yes.

But that's just my opinion :P

You should consider adding an incentive for players to actually visit the wilderness on the Target world (s), 0,5% bonus experience while in the wilderness or maybe the long sought after brawling gloves which you are only able to receive from slaughtering your PvP targets.

Why would you go skilling on the Target system world if it wouldn't be any diffrent from the normal world?

Otherwise I think this is the best solution, even though I am a big fan of the EP system myself I do realise it would ruin the economy in the long term.

the in-game polls could be added in multiple places, so you can click a button OR go to a bank, so people have the option to do whatever they want.

I like the idea of 60% of the costs of rfd gloves being dropped, however, it would decrease it's money sink by 60%.

the grind-x option should come, not only for birds nests but for all items, something added to the pestle and mortar, not only one specific item.

the no-movement arena is a great idea, it will help a lot.

the pet insurance should defenitely come, it would be a great money sink.

the minigame teleport is also very useful.

the special attack bar should be visible when wielding a weapon that doens't have one, however, it should be a different colour or faded, so it's clear you cannot spec with that weapon.

Worldstream said :
Here's my constructive criticism for the BH target system:

The "point" of the wilderness is not that it's a place where you go to kill or be killed. The point is that's it is a dangerous place that you COULD be killed at any given time. Every moment is an adrenaline rush of "what if a white dot appears on my screen? Will i Run? Will I kill him? Will he kill me?"

For me anyway, part of the fun of the wilderness is the suspense factor. People have to hunt. The key part of this is searching. There are several places in the wilderness that players often flock to, so PKers often stalk these areas.

This target system makes PKing a non-skillful, run in with guns-blazing type of approach. I feel this would effectively remove all skillers and explorers from the wilderness, essentially emptying it of a large part of its usage.

*Waves hand* This is not the solution you are looking for. Move along. Move along.


edit: as an aside, and I'm all for you guys polling basically everything, but when it's for something like adding a crush option for nests, you could probably just add it. I can't see ANY reason this could be against anybody's wishes.


I agree with your original post, but with your edit, I disagree.
I feel that they should poll EVERYTHING , big or small.
I quote on the OSRS Main Page "A dedicated development team provides ongoing maintenance of this version for an intimate and vibrant
community who choose content updates
via regular community polls."
Ummm, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember voting for minigame teleports, which I hate because its additional teleports to a multitude of other places with only 20 minute cooldowns....sounds a little like the Lodestone Network huh (with the cooldown)? That was just something they added in a hidden update.
Jagex needs to poll everything so that we always know whats going on!
