I really don’t understand why you’re not willing to take the stance of simply voiding the previous polled results based on poll integrity issues and resubmitted them as the aforementioned 2 questions. That’s kind of worrying to me. You’re basically willing to say “We know this is an issue” and “We know the outcome might have changed if we’d polled it correctly”, but you’re still not going to?

Surely everyone - you guys on the OSRS team & the wider community - would prefer the polls actually reflect what people want in game? Surely if it meant giving everyone peace of mind you’d simple re-do it. If both pass then great, everyone is happy and we can all rest easy knowing the questions were fully understood and serve as an accurate reflection of the majority of voting players. But if one passes and one fails then we can see there was clearly an issue, and it was able to have been tackled before it was too late.

I'm talking of my own personal opinion, not the teams or representative of the entire community - perhaps that should have been made clearer.

There was obvious demand for the Spellbook filter to increase icon size, hence why it passed with such a high percentage and the second question failed.

I don't think we should go back and change that now because it didn't suit absolutely everyone. I'm pretty confident that it does represent what the majority of people want in-game, though appreciate it isn't what everyone wants, but I don't think every update is.

Fossil Island was before I joined the team so I’m not exactly sure what happened there, sorry.

Don't you work for Jagex? Find out, man. None of us are exactly sure what happened but we don't work for Jagex.

My God, just do your job.

EDIT: I'm ignorant and stupid because the person who gets paid to be the bridge between the players and the company gave a shit answer.

Why even comment at all? I would've been happy with "but I'll find out" thrown at the end of the original reply.

I’m not actually at work today - perhaps try asking someone that is if you’d rather have a prompt response?

Except that train of thought is not entirely accurate due to the nature of the first poll technically bundling multiple things into 1, forcing players to vote through something they perhaps don’t want (large icons) in order to get something they do want (spell filters). We’ve seen it happen before, where people will vote something through because they like a big part of it, but are left somewhat aggravated that they’re having to also vote through something they don’t want that’s attached to it.

As the recent repoll has shown, the enlarged icons is an extremely contentious point. The implication there should be that a ton of people clearly wanted the filters, but the support isn’t anywhere near as strong for the large icons.

What you actually should have done is straight up separated it out into 2 clear & concise polls with no ambiguity.

If I could go back and reword the first question before it was polled, I absolutely would.

I’m not happy with how it bundled two things in together either (even though it was more explaining what the mobile filter offered), but it did, and there’s nothing more that could be done other than this alternative question.

A poll was released today, and it made a very questionable choice. I am not talking about the wording, but the way they went about the poll. Usually the default is no change and 75% support is needed to make a change. In the current poll that is not the case.

What and Why?

In a recent poll we were asked "Do you want A? B will happen as a result." A lot of players were fine with A but didn't want B. Both were polled in the same question and it passed with 86.6%. But a lot of players were still unhappy with this, so they polled B separately. Yet despite it being a change to how the game currently is, instead of needing 75% to be added, the poll was worded so that it needs 75% to not be added.

This is an extremely bad practice and goes against the polling system. We weren’t given a chance to vote for what we wanted. We were forced to vote for more than we wanted and given an unfair poll to keep existing behavior.

We polled something not everyone was entirely happy about, but we weren’t in a position to bypass the poll system for what was favoured so highly by so many.

The only thought that was going through my mind when doing this poll question was that the previous question, which included the icons being bigger, had already passed a poll.

At that point we are obliged to add it as per its wording in the poll because the community wanted it - going against that would entirely undermine the polling process.

The only real option was to state “We know this passed, however, if you want we can change it before it’s added to this instead. If not, then it’s going to be as per what you initially voted on”.

That’s what the question aimed to do and there was no other intention other than to give the community the opportunity to decide what they’d prefer happen with it. It had to state that if it failed the previous would be implemented because it had already passed a p...

Yeh the change hasn’t gone live yet :) this was to tell you it will be in the future though!

Well, I don't see the little "*" by warding so we have every right to assume the polls are rigged.

Typo or not, you really have to be cautious and double-check advertisements, or is this some dumb PR stunt?

As I said, it’s meant to say that, it quite clearly doesn’t however.

It was also raised but seems to have not been changed before going live, hence me now querying it. Hopefully it can get fixed ASAP :)

There’s meant to be text under the “Whoops” explaining how the last email sent had an error in it.

I raised it to the marketing team about 15 minutes after the emails went out (as I get them too) so they’re aware that text isn’t showing for everyone in this email and they’re looking to get it resolved ASAP.
