Where are the roaming beavers? Why is it a pond with ducks and not a river flowing through the gates INTO THE POND with some sort of beaver dam? Why is the beautiful front half of the guild useless after level 60? Why isn't the evil chicken shrine more evil-chickeny? It's honestly pissing me off bro like they slapped this sh*t down and called it a guild. That word used to mean something.

Conveniently ignoring that Jagex had over 500 employees in 2012, the year OSRS launched. Literally the next line from the Wikipedia page you're quoting from.

You deadass think 29/500 worked on OSRS? Especially 4 years later when zeah was released.

Me wrong.

There were 12 people working on OSRS during the release of Zeah.

The woodcutting guild was mostly created by a single dev without any art support though, they reused all the assets. I updated the redwood trees a year later.

Damn that's impressive for a game this size. I stand corrected.

For sure! Around that time OSRS was kinda just doing its own thing in the corner with a small dev team, mostly ignored by the rest of the company which I think helped it grow :D OSRS team is easily 50+ people nowadays if not more (depending on how you count external support teams)
