I would like to see a poll about gambling, the game shouldn't be a casino;
e.g. even removing mithril seeds
(however, then other forms of gambling would arise, maybe someone else has other ideas?)

Only reason for Unids is for scamming the unknowledgable. Vote to turn back to grimy. Was quite surprised to see the change.

I think polls should be 1 vote per member not votes for seperate accounts the member has.
Any changes should carry a 75-80% affirmative vote.

Yes for Pathfinder, bank tabs, changing flowers.

Either a 2/3 majority or a 3/4 majority should suffice for implementing new content into 2007.

I don't necessarily want any significant changes to the graphics, although having options to turn off roofs would be nice. Also, I would suggest improving draw distance.

well i think having your hp and run energy around the map icon would be a big help like on regular rs i would also like to see the g.e come back but like it is now with "suggested prices" instead of fixed prices also it would be nice if you could bring summoning and dungeoniering back as well but hey this is just my opinion also making f2p and p2p servers would be nice too so it helps to fix prices of items cause i have found stuff to gone down a considerable amount because everyone has access to everything like fishing and mining hot spots only members can access lobster on OSRS is only 50gp which is a joke really... i know the games just started out but people are making money really easily which is good which means prices should be going back to normal but they arnt because of what i said above

player polls are a very good idea, with emphasis on player. Like tears of guthix, you should log a minimum of xp per week? month? since last vote? to be able to vote - so players with multiple accounts must play those accounts to earn multiple votes. And players who don't really play oldschool, don't get to vote.

No to ftp, increases risk of botting. FTP have main rs if they want access to a free game.

I really liked an earlier suggestion: when you log in you are given the vote option and there are 3 possible answers: yes, no and don't care. I think the don't care is important information in deciding whether or not to go ahead with a change.

Changing herbs to grimy would be great, as would ability to remove roofs in the graphics. I'm hearing a quite a bit of frustration with roofs in game as you cannot click through them.

A GE with suggested prices, but not fixed would help a lot. I don't understand why some want to spend so much time bartering or trying to find buyers/sellers. It's frustrating and just gets in the way of playing rs - it's the only thing I disliked about rs 2007 and jumped for joy when ge was introduced.

However i really miss my toolbelt and would appreciate it a lot if that could be added.

So happy with oldschool, thanks.

If bots start coming here, pls put dev priority to stopping them.

Keep the randoms, they are great and mess with afking and bots. People are chatting while playing now - we have a community. :D

Firstly, how would you like the community polls to work? For instance, what degree of consensus should be required? i think 60 percent of the votes should be in favour of the change then it would be fair.


- Secondly, what content changes would you like to see shortlisted for the first polls?
id like the possibility to sell more than 10 runes etc at a time to shops, thats my only problem atm :D
