While we have a tendency to point out all the negative things Jagex does, we should also attempt to reinforce good behavior from Jagex and thank them when they do things correctly. For instance, I appreciate the uptick in communication today with War's Retreat. Several posts have received replies from J-mods, especially from Mod Poerkie. Thank you and please keep up the good work.

Thx for the thread. If we have things to say or add you should see us around. It's much easier to engage with you all during big releases than It's during a patch week.

  • Thanks Mod Jack for your detailed work and your ability to listen. You are able to come up with solutions that truly solve the heart of the issues that face the community and the game. You are detailed and measured, a quality that every successful team needs.

  • Thanks Mod Ian for your passion in music and sound. Your role often gets overlooked or passed over in discussions on discord or reddit, etc, but this is due to the impeccable quality of your work. Thank you.

  • Thank you Mod Pi, you're legendary. The impact you've had on the game is legendary, truly it is impossible to name all the contributions you've had on the game and community and it would be a disservice to you to start naming them, but we all know what they are! Your legend can only grow further, wow!

  • Thanks Mod Timbo, you're of course another legend! Your contributions are numerous, but I also want to thank you for appearing on streams and giving your insight, your smile is infectious and it is obvious that you have an incredible passion for the game.

  • Thanks Mod Biscuits for all the great animations that have been coming to the game (especially lately) they do not go unnoticed!

  • Thanks Mod Ramen for inspiring so many people with your story, starting in QA and moving up from there. You're real honest and in tune with the playerbase, especially iron accounts!

  • Thanks Mod Poerkie for stepping into Shauny's shoes. It is a massive role to fill and I am sure it can be intimidating. I appreciate your bravery and boldness to take on that challenge.

  • Thanks Mod Raven for your continued passion in the game and championing queer/LGBTQ characters in game. A lot of people react negatively to the inclusion of diversity in games, but many of us who are queer, transgender, etc, notice this and appreciate it greatly. "

  • Thank you to all the QA team members who are truly the unsung heroes of the industry. Again, nothing is possible without you, it may not be glamorous, but I truly appreciate your ability to do what needs to be done to get updates tested and tried and as polished as they need to be. You are integral and I would love to see more of y'all on a stream some time so I can shower you with love and appreciation.

  • Thank you to player support for helping us with all our, well, player support needs! The amount of people you help get back in the game, get their questions answered, their issues resolved, it's truly staggering.

  • Thank you art & graphics team. So many beautiful things you create, I look forward to the environments, the items, the characters, etc, that come out of each update. So much charm and love is put into the things you create and that is something not easily to replicate.

  • Thank you Localisation, you increase access to this game for all to enjoy!

  • Thanks Web Team for all the improvements to the website over the last year.

  • Thanks Live Events team for your creativity within the restrictions you have and for finding news ways to engage the community.

Thank you for uplifting other Jmods, pointing out their humanity and sharing their stories.

Other than Mobilizing Armies being removed, I never thought I'd be okay with removing stuff from the world / moving things around to declutter the game make due to the change it would make, especially an area like Burthorpe / Taverley being so useful with Jack of Trade aura, but by gosh man you did a wonderful job.

Thanks very much! I feel working with other players helped a lot with that. Did a lot of design validation over Discord in game jam and follow-up over the subsequent months.
