Post your thoughts on the good and bad of RuneScape at the moment, it's nice to hear peoples suggestions / thoughts on the game and it's current state.

My thoughts:
The prayer and new slayer update was by far one of the best this year. It boosted higher level players spirits and gave them something else to work towards. I think Jagex are doing really well at the moment, mostly with their communication with the players. You look around forums, and youtube... Jagex moderators are getting very involved in the community.

Theres still nothing that will fix the removal of the old wild and staking

They're coming along nicely.. The wilderness update and obviously the trade updates (GE + trade limits) pretty much killed a lot of the free aspects of RS.. To many that ended the game. They've come along way since there are still the popularity continues to be there. I personally like RS a lot, anyone who knows me knows I'm an addict.. I just hope the new skill (whatever and whenever it may be) isn't too much of a ruiner.. I'm sure a lot of people will be counting on something very exciting.. especially since they've given absolutely no hints towards it.. besides the fact that it is new and it will be a skill. Because of that however.. this could be a make or break for Jagex. If it's good, great! New skill which everyone loves. If it's bad.. another failed update for Jagex.
