Yup, Camel was indeed checking in and ran a few very informal polls just to get an insight into where the IM community (in that particular space) landed on the issues he presented. The answer I got from looking at those responses was "We need to ask broadly." The answers were surprising to me personally, and so I want us to get a clearer, more cohesive understanding of the Ironman community's stance so we know, looking ahead, where we stand on topics like the ones Camel put forward.

It's something I'm still working on with the team, it's not been forgotten or overlooked. Continuing to push the topic and explore our options, and I'm still very keen to get insight and guidance from the Ironman community on proposals when we're ready.

Rite of Passage, I believe, was Mod Raven who is no longer part of the team. I'd love to have more lore-heavy and exploratory quests, of course, but I'm also conscious that quests that are very personal to specific Jmods (current or former) have to be done right to do them justice. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, of course, but Mod Jack has talked about this on a Design stream (in that instance, he was talking about the Gnome questline) and he spoke about the fact that previously quests were very personal projects that were written and designed typically by one member of the team.

I'd love more lore-heavy Morytania quests and explore even more of that spooky side of the Salve (which would also be a reason to give that area a morbid and macabre makeover) but I don't even know where I'd START with making a quest myself. I love the idea of Rite of Passage as a quest though, so I do hope we see it one day!

My fear of spiders validated yet again!

Holding food is hard when you're dead, just ask Death! That apple's just been sitting there for years.

Flagged this up with the team! Thanks for letting us know.

Edit: 15:30 Game Time 18/9/23 - Hotfix for this has been deployed!

This one came up a lot on the Community Hitlist Survey - I'm hoping we can take a look into this one, or at least if not, get insight into why not.

Can't say I disagree with any of that - I think we can all agree that it's inadvisable to get into combat with underlevelled gear, that's a recipe for disaster not just in RuneScape but in general, but that's only a part of the equation.

Farmbassador is such a mood.

Hey, a similar post has just shown up and I'm looking into that one. So I'm reading this correctly, upwards of Turoth (to Corrupted Workers), monsters are hitting less hard than Basilisks and Jellies? Will flag it up as something to take an iterative second swing at potentially.

I'll ask the same thing there, then. More info is always helpful. Thanks!

Hey - I'm happy to forward this feedback onto the team.
Mod Sponge and I chatted about this a little bit (but he's on holiday atm) so we'd love to take a look into this. Can I grab your RSN, and which mobs you've been having issues with? You've mentioned Grotworms and Ghouls, anything else? Can I also check what gear and levels you're using? Just want to make sure I'm giving the team all the info so they can get a clearer picture. Thanks so much in advance!

Well, I'd love to reach a point where everytime we communicate we've got new things to share. We'll get there, I hope! Have a great weekend.

TWO verticals, one landscape in the middle?! Wow, couldn't see myself going for it, but no judgment here!

Wow, what a coincidence! Would be cool to do something for one of the next pieces of the development update or something like that. Will add that to the list of ideas to explore!

Well, the good news is that now I know how to do it, I'll be chipping away at bringing those articles in line so they fit that criteria and are filed correctly!

There was an eagerness from the Leadership Team that we maintain a cadence of update posts on Fridays (which I feel we started a trend with by putting out Necromancy updates!), so there was a desire there to remind players that the topic is still absolutely front of mind and work is still ongoing.

And someone had to stay and HTML it up and post it, too!

Howdy! Mod Spear has been away for a few weeks so streams have been on hold - unfortunately that may be the case for the whole of September. I'm hoping that we can get back into the swing of things sooner because, as you've said, streams are one of the things I'm a fan of doing!

Mod Bam and I were brainstorming the idea of sitting down with the Art team and talking through the creative process behind things like the Zamorakian Undercity and Game Jams with Mod Blkwitch, the City of Um with Mod Bak, Mod Dragon's character work and the like. I'd like to get more insights into the team's awesome work and the processes behind them! Could expand that out to things like Mod Ramen's work on the Violet questline, who knows? Wanna throw myself into more in-studio streams when I get the chance.

D'oh! We all learn that lesson once, I've been there! Get yourself back in there and get those Trolls!
