A few people have mentioned the tab-messaging and resizable screen, so I'll quickly respond about those:

Tab Messaging isn't on that list as it needs a bit more fiddling with the engine code, but it can be done. It will probably be in the 2nd poll.

Resizable screen - This is surprisingly difficult for us. It basically needs a re-write of the 2007 interface backend system. So ** won't be on the first few polls, but could be possible down the road.


Darn. Thanks for the reply tho! Can't wait for tab replying, very important imho. :)

I vote yes to pretty much everything (I don't PK but I'm not going to deny those that want F2P PKing). The left clicking on bank booths is one of two things I absolutely cannot deprogram from my mind (the other being to rotate the screen with the mouse wheel) so hopefully it goes through. :P Team Mystic knows no Bird but the Bird in the North whose name is Artic*no

i love the poll idea and believe the total level could be higher after a while, but i believe the bots and gold farmers are the most important thing to worry about. great job jagex I play Runescape

We’re also aiming to get the first community content polls open next week. We’ve been listening carefully to the discussion of this topic following last week’s devblog, and there has been a lot of agreement from within the community about how such polls should be run. Therefore we’ll be setting up the polls to run under the following principles:
- Each feature poll will have a yes/no answer
- Each feature poll will run for a week (although we'll run several at once).
- A feature requires 75% yes vote in order to be successful.
- Only players with at least 100 total level in Old School RuneScape can vote.


Please, for the good of the community: When you post polls for people to vote on, give a few pro-con arguments for each item. There are many who will vote one way or the other without much thought as to the consequences of their choice. I'm certain it wouldn't be too hard to get a few arguments both ways... and it could potentially make a huge impact on the outcome.

That's all. Thanks for reading. :)

The main things I would love to have a poll on, and I am sure plenty of players want in 07 would be:

1. Rest!
2. Screen Resolution. (I don't mean hd graphics I just mean full screen or resizeable)
2. Tab for pm response.


I do think 75% is high.
