UNIDS will be nice but i know the non veteran player will complain about it because they don't know how to counteract being scammed with them.

As for the degree of consensus of votes i think it has to be a vast majority in order to be put in place. At least 75% maybe with a slight tolerance.

For the polls, you have to make it so the votes are fair and eoc players can come in and try to ruin the game just to make us mad. Only players who voted for OsRS should be allowed to vote, and only players with a total level of say 200+ or something. This will keep the results fair. Also the vote should be a large majority decision. 85% or 75% of the votes only. Please take this advice, as many other players on this thread have said the same thing as me.

This server is more or less supposed to be something that isn't changed much. Ya know. Ever. So yea, Quality of Life updates are cool, but we don't need many of them at all. I'll summarize once more, most of us had the idea that this server would never introduce later content. I hope you guys feel strongly about that as well.

As far as what degree of ****ensus, 2/3rds is ususally a pretty fair number. Because this is oldschool/2007 Runescape, I'd say 3/4 is fair. If it's something that 3 out of 4 people would vote to have changed, it should probably be changed (not always applicable).

I think the poll should be in game for 07, Or that you need to have gotten so far in old school. reason being the EOC players could troll or purposely vote for what our 07 community doesn't want.

As for results, anything that is optional needs just 50% + 1 to win. However I think big updates that effect all need a 60% minimum majority. If G.E comes to polls (please don't) a simple 50% + 1 is not enough. I don't want to see this community torn apart again.

In my opinion, we should theoretically bump the server backup forward 3 days. This would only update one thing: It would add a plethora of new hairstyles to the measly list that we have now. Seriously, the current list is the same as the one in classic.

Other than that, please don't change anything. This is 2007, not "let's take all the good things from later and add them to 2007."

I believe that the private messaging system should be somewhat up to par with todays methods. I'm so used for tabbing to pm last message and right clicking the pm to pm back a friend that having to resort to having to go to friend's list every time you want to pm someone is so time consuming and annoying to do.

Also, changing the pm system won't change the game itself so I find this as a certain necessary update for much more efficient gaming.
