Here are my favorite or disliked questions, too many to answer all.

1.Question: Shall we include the point system from the Smoking Kills quest?
Yes
2.Question: Should we introduce broad tip bolts to be bought from a slayer master?
Yes
3.Question: Should we introduce broad arrow heads to be bought from a slayer master?
Yes
4.Question: Should we introduce the option to buy the ability to construct a slayer helmet using slayer points?
Yes
5.Question: Should your character automatically kill gargoyles, rock slugs, desert lizards and zygomites when they reach 0 health and you have the correct item in your inventory?
Yes
6.Question: Should we introduce the Christmas 2006 event?
I'd rather there be less focus on holiday events and more focus on content that will make old school better.
7.Question: Would you like to be able to turn existing party hats into tradeable rainbow party hats?
No
8.Question: Should the anti-Santa visit Old School and dispense black Santa hats?
Sure
9.Question: Should a log of every fairy ring be added and allow the dials to be turned in both directions?
Yes
10.Question: Should God Wars pets be added as ultra-rare drops to the God Wars bosses?
Yes
------------------------------------------------------------

Now here are some requests for future polls that would make me love OSRS even more.

1. Bank tabs, to help organize our bank.
2. Be able to move the screen around with the middle mouse button, like on RS3.
3. Hitpoints, Prayer points (and quick prayer), Run energy all located by the minimap like on Pre-Eoc.
4. Solo ONLY bosses, example Queen black dragon. Not asking for Queen black dragon but perhaps some new solo bosses.
5. Fight kiln and the Kiln Cape.
6. More challenges like the Fight Cave and Fight Kiln that can ONLY be done solo and have untradeable rewards. Make sure they are extra hard.
7. Clan Wars.

I don't really want to see a co-op slayer, but for no particular reason.
My concerns lies with becoming overpowered. I'm a very casual player and it was made very hard to keep up in rs3, The most Op weapons I'm okay with is the gwd weps, anything past that it really does make things to easy, or it makes pvp utterly impossible for people like me.

On a positive note, I would love to see the slayer helmet. That subject makes me pretty happy, however i don't know what imbuning does to the mask so i can not add input there. :) :) :) :) :) :)

Hello there all,

I just wanted a bit of clarification on the imbuing part of the new slayer helmet. As you know, the black mask can already be imbued to give mage+range bonuses on slayer tasks, but this dev blog talks about imbuing the helmet itself? Wouldn't it be silly to be able to imbue the same thing twice? Here is exactly what was posted in the blog: "If the slayer helmet is introduced, should we allow it to be imbued like the black mask via Nightmare Zone?"

Just thought it would be silly to get the same benefits from imbuing basically the same thing twice. I might be wrong on this, but as stated earlier, just wanted a bit of clarification. :)

Question: Should we introduce the leaf bladed sword as drop from slayer creatures?
i think that it was good because i liked having a shield for extra defense

Question: Should we introduce broad tip bolts?
i would like to see them but maybe take a little damage off (they were OP)

Question: Should we introduce a slayer ring?
i dont really care about the slayer ring. i didn't use it before.

Question: Should we introduce broad arrow heads?
I never used them back in the original, so i don't care.

Question: Should we introduce the option to buy the ability to construct a slayer helmet using slayer points?
I absolutely love the slayer helmet, even before the extra add-ons (focus sight and whatever).

Question: Should we introduce a new slayer dungeon with segregated slayer monsters which you can only attack if you have them as an assignment?
no

Question: Should we introduce two new slayer monsters which can be attacked if you have a slayer level of 80+?
sure. it would sort of reward higher slayer lvl players (it takes a while to get 80)

Queston: If we introduce two new slayer monsters, should we introduce two new boss variants of the slayer monsters?
no

Question: Should we introduce a time trial slayer mode which will reward players with additional XP if they complete their task within an allotted time period?
it would increase exp rates for higher leveled players depending on how you make it.

Question: Would you like to see how many of each slayer monster you have ever killed? sure

Question: Should your character automatically kill gargoyles, rock slugs, desert lizards and zygomites when they reach 0 health and you have the correct item in your inventory?
NO. slayer i all about "learning techniques for killing special monsters," so it shouldn't be auto

Question: Should you be able to buy an increased amount of monsters of a task you have received using slayer points
i think this might be a useful option
