I think this update is great, honestly I am glad to see the time and effort that is being put into OSRS and the improvements to make it great again.

I was just curious if this means there will be an application list for Pmods?
I always wanted the honor and am curious as to what exactly will be happening since it was posted about.

Good work guys! :)

I honestly think the outcry over the gambling was overwrought, but I can understand why you guys did something about it.

Unfortunately, I predict this won't have as much impact as people suspect. There are always going to be elements of chance in the game, and the people who want to gamble will just find some other way of doing it.

Appreciate the update on bots as well.

Overall, the communication here on OSRS has been really great, much better than it was in 2007 for sure!

What happend to Voting before any major changes? And why is gambleing so bad all of a sudden? Squeel of fortune anyone? I don't gamble I think it would be silly to, but as long as it's not for like Real world money, I don't see the problem in people having a little fun. It is your choice to particapate or not.

So glad to see that you guys have sorted out the issue with gambling in game. I hated seeing the constant spam from them in the grand exchange all of the time.

As for the bot busting thats just awesome. I have definitely noticed quite a lot less bots in game now then at the end of last year so something must be working. WE ARE...

This whole game is based around chance.

Mithril flowers and toy horses have been around long enough longer than most players here I bet, if people for some reason think it is a good idea to bet it on it now then why stop them.

Also, why did you not just put this into the first vote with the other poll options? The poll closes on the 20th it's not like it would have delayed it if you seem to think the community support this move so much.

And to top it all off, you have modified the right click options without a vote to include a report option, which is just bound to cause hassle.

1.) I couldn't agree more with this decision, gambling ruins the game for those who actually try to make an honest earning. When running flower games, people are simply taking advantage of others making it seem like you could make money, but instead you either get scammed or lose over and over again.

2.) Nice to see that the staff is trying to make the game fair to eveyone, what better way then trying to try put an end to RWT and Botting.

3.) Good to see PMods specifically selected for Old School RS.

Great Dev blog and updates, can't wait to see whats next.
