Could we have the Ironman options polled separately? The base poll could be "Do you support an Ironman mode being integrated into the game?" with additional polls asking about things like chat badges, outfits, buying from shops, NMZ, a fresh start for all, etc.

If the base poll doesn't pass, then that's fine. But in the current format, a lot of the complaints I've seen from people so far are with only one or two rules, which are causing them to vote no on the entire concept.

If you give them the option to vote no on just those individual points that they disagree with, they might be more likely to vote yes on the base concept of Ironman, because they trust that the community will filter out the rules that they disagree with.

I believe that using shops as an ironman is going to be necessary. I don't mean that you should be able to buy things that other people have sold to the shops, but I do think that you should be able to buy things that the shop stocks regularly. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to train magic effectively for a long time until you were able to craft certain runes. I think almost all ironmen currently buy things that are auto stocked from general stores/rune shops. Other than this I will definitely be voting yes and I am super excited to play this mode.

I'll be voting for Corp, and since you nerds are so against the unchanged divine I'll be voting down your stupid iron man update. I normal don't advocate such ignorance, but since we we haven't been able to pass a big update lately, who cares anymore?

In response to Keno...


Seasonal modes, interesting! I was just thinking about how we need more aspects of the game that give players a "fresh start" feeling. I'm sure I can speak for many when I say that the beginning of Oldschool Runescape was the most fun - when we all were scrambling around for any little items together and any little xp.

This is why Iron Man is going to be fun, in [art simply because of the fresh start aspect. This seasonal mode you're mentioning might give players that fresh start feeling on a consistent basis.

I think its too early for corp and spirit shields, these items would be of such a rediculous value that when you are killing corp in a group, theres a pretty big chance the person getting the drop will just take off with it never to be seen again. I propose getting some lootshare system before adding content like corp, or you'll be looking at a lot of complaints.

You have a good point. There's definitely going to be a lot of "Non-Splitting" going around, especially with such high valued sigils.
I really do think they should come out with a lootshare system as soon as possible.
But not at the expense of postponing the release of Corp now. At this point it's too late - we're all too excited lol.

And in response to the one person who said
"then only Corp with people you trust"
. Well a lot of players simply rely on PvM clans to do their bossing. They place their trust in those clans. Unfortunately clan members still tend to cheat other clan members out of their fair share of drops. This is a common affair. And let's be honest, even those friends that you really thought you could trust have cheated you before. And now with potentially a Divine sigil on the line...well, even a good Runescape friendship may have its price. Of course it wasn't truly a friendship to begin with.
