Can we have the hydra head in our POH as well? Honestly I'd like to see that for all bosses. I know we have pets but you can't have them all out at the same time

Sure thing - we'll poll this along with the Slayer helm

Maybe I’m out of the loop, but is there any further discussion about rebuffing the Konar drop table? Or will it be left as is at -30% the original value per kill?

Since then we removed some of the lowest value drops such as the runes and yew logs. I'll put a poll blog live explaining the fine tuning we've decided we think is appropriate after all the feedback tomorrow - it'll be more profitable again I expect.

I'm all for the bones prayer xp being changed. They're way too low and useless right now compared to the existing bones.

Fair. I'm thinking to split the question into three - one for each bone. The numbers we've suggested would put them inbetween the existing bones.

As much as I love the guy, some constructive feedback would be to maybe prepare a bit beforehand in regards to reading the questions and articulating them better as I feel he takes up a bit more time than necessary reading it out and making sure the team understands the question.

I've tried to do this each time, but this week I didn't have time to put the questions together myself between going through the Kebos feedback and other projects. I appreciate the feedback though and will do my best to vet the questions beforehand. Still getting the hang of hosting!

Hey,

On face value it does look like our support team have responded to a gold seller. However, if you dig a little deeper it does make sense. The user has chosen a Twitter handle that implies they sell gold, we don't know if they do, it could be a joke - who knows?

What we do know is that the account posed a serious question and it seemed like they needed help. We had 2 choices here, ignore the message and risk someone not getting the help they need, or reply with the best advice and assume the handle naming was not serious. Certainly to pre-judge the user based on handle naming alone seems unfair - so we chose to offer the advice needed.

For clarity the original tweets (2) to us were:

"hey, needing help with unpaid balance, my account was recently taken over and it happened a few times in the past month but when I virus scan and even delete files I still don't know about I'm still getting screwed over and now I've received numerous emails sayi...

Personally i don't think it needs a buff.

It's already considered BIS at solo raids and rune dragons.

In my opinion, every new item doesn't need to be BIS everywhere.

That's fair. We'll bear these points in mind - we're about to go have a lengthy discussion to make these choices.

The post now correctly says bird nests - sorry about that!

When will you be discussing the buffs to Dragon Hunter Lance, you talked about on the Q&A yesterday?

We'll discuss that among the team today, in preparation for the revised poll blog tomorrow.

Whoops! I'll add that in - this was included in today's changes.

UPDATE 2I want to give a huge thank you to Mod SteveW for taking the time to look into this, and anybody else who took this seriously and tried to help, and making me feel like I did the right thing. I very much would have regretted ignoring this whole situation. I Hope the very best for the player in question.

UPDATE1 He logged back on and told me he said he loved me and that he almost killed himself... I'm going to do my best to keep in touch with him and make sure he doesn't do anything he would regret...

ORIGINAL POST He is even saying he will live stream it. I dunno if this guy is serious but he's telling me his best friend just commited suicide 3 hours ago and he is going to do the same thing to be with him... I've heard of mods calling police on players doing this before. i'd like the same to be done somehow or something please??? He just logged out not sure if he will log back in but i'll send pics of h...

Update: I was notified just before 3am today that the player we were concerned about had logged in again - a good indication that he/she is safe :)

This isn't a dig at you guys, you did a phenomenal job here, but I just want to point out that a lot could have happened in the 36 minutes it took to risk assess and escalate that report...is there a faster way to get someone at Jagex's attention? It sounds like the fastest way is to contact the police and have them email the lawcontact address. But I'm sure even that isn't monitored 24 hours is it?

It is monitored 24/7.

I mean, the closest thing in the report rule-breaking interface is "breaking real-world laws".

That is the right route, response time for review on those reports is a few minutes
