How can we, the playerbase, expect jagex to do anything right and in a timely manner when it literally takes over 10 months to have a meeting, about having a meeting, to change a header photo.

EDIT: apparently they're going to 'rotate the icon based on new conte...

Rotating the Directory icon based on content seems to work quite nicely for Fortnite (not saying we're in the same league at the moment, but it does keep it fresh and exciting - and based on the most up-to-date content, rather than - say - the Raptor). There is an element of recognisability in there, but this is something we'll be trying and seeing what the impact is. If we find it doesn't work, we'll look for a more permanent image.

I'll see if there's anything we can do RE: phishing streams. Again, we need help from Twitch on this one, but I'll keep pushing.

I f**king love these kind of videos, please take it off of unlisted! Well done video team and the mods! Really excited for this style of Hunter, also the armour concept looks so sick

We'll take it off unlisted today, in time for today's Q&A.

I think it was probably the latter! I do agree we need to get better at shouting about things like the Sentinel outfit and the Stone Spirit changes.

That is coming with the Breaking the Storm event (not mentioned in the Month Ahead).

Hey guys - there are a selection of RuneScape songs (that you can make into your own playlists), available on vinyl, CD, and streaming services.

Details here.

It's not something that takes years to develop a solution

We can report them, yes - and do - but it's ultimately up to Twitch to remove the accounts (most do get removed within 20 mins but sometimes that's enough to do a lot of damage). They're like hydras too, and another pops up pretty much straight away.

It's a solution that we'll need help from Twitch with, ultimately.

I feel like this is coming because Jagex now has plans to become the largest MMO. Well Jagex, you need to do a lot of work. Blizzard's support is basically what you should aim for. You may not be #1, but Runescape is the #1 MMO game that releases their numbers. No other MMO is sporting/showing off they have 100k people playing at one time.

There are some major issues not addressed in this blog.

  1. Refunds/returns. Currently, Jagex official offers no support to players who are victims of hacks or glitches besides niche cases. If I hacked 199atatime right now and got him 2 slayer, Jagex would not reset his account. If I hacked a guy for his rsn like "red," you would not return that guys runescape name. If I hacked a guy for 2b, you would not return his gp; even if you find the hacker and ban him with 2b on his account, you won't put that 2b gp back on the OG guy's account. If I experienced a bug, and got unwanted xp, I would not get rolled back unless the bug a...

Hey - as you mentioned, the above topics will be covered in future blogs, so I'll address the Twitch side of things.

We are working with Twitch to find a solution and are trying in-house methods too to stop this at the source. Thank you for your suggestion, but given that 99% of the phishing streams use VODs from existing streams, rather than actually playing the game, I'm not sure this would work - and would only punish those who genuinely wanted to stream for enjoyment.

I'm loving the communication lately from you guys and really excited for the first time in awhile to get back into the game.

Thank you for the feedback. We're trying to be as open and transparent with you all as we can about a multitude of topics from all over the team.

This is the acronym we've been giving it internally :')

Tyranokebbit Rex, perhaps?

Kebbits are basically tiny T-Rexes, but rather than having tiny arms, they have no arms at all.

Tricerokebbit.

We do have ongoing plans to update various areas and bring them up to the quality of more newly-released areas, but it is a slow, bit-by-bit process.

(We did graphically-update the Digsite this week).
