I am a developer myself, as RS gold many are in this community. My staff communicates with our clients about our ideas to improve the present infrastructure. We have a whole lot of ideas that we think are fantastic, however there are just as many thoughts which get taken down by the clients due to the effect it would have. And that’s completely fine because with these rejections, we get a estimate of what is reasonable and what isn’t. If we pushed out all our thoughts, you can damn ass ensure our business would go under.
I’m a graphic designer. I have to listen to customers too. However, my clients comprises like 4-5 managers who are currently stressing about it and all of them have other remarks. I, however, can still put my creativity. If I couldn’t I would have stopped long time ago. Jagex has thousands of clients that also possess opinions. Is it possible to satisfy those clients to enjoy their content? Every thursday about 1 pm most of these article are negative and there are groups of individuals around here estimating these articles. How in the world can a proper developer/designer enjoy their work if it is despised everytime it gets released or even thrown of this concept dining table? And in fact every now and then we see a Jmod quiting their job.
We have recently seen polls go through using the maximum pass rate in osrs history regarding both proportion of questions passed and Number of votes. The community is absolutely not destroying ideas for RuneScape and, in fact, lots of the queries at the Boss Slayer Master poll are directly taken from community ideas. If anything, the requirements for voting have to be made more strict so gamers have a opportunity to experience what it is that produces osrs different to all other matches on the sector and make educated decisions on the best way best to ensure it remains uniquely great.
At the exact same way there has to be an internal (JMod) comprehension of what Oldschool should be, there needs to also be an external (player) comprehension but the current polling system sadly ignores this requirement and does not allow for it. It is healthy for there to be queries which don’t pass survey – that I can’t comprehend why the Blood Fury passed (then endured immediate complaints when there were roughly zero usage cases for it). To me that’s the type of thing that polling is meant to catch.
Keep bringing up this and hopefully they listen before we get to a type of evolved battle 2.0 bullshit situation. You want to make a change? Poll it. In case it fails layout about it and then suck it up. Never run a poll that cannot fail,”integrity polls” hurt RuneScape more in the future than whatever short term bullshit the jmods believe has to be addressed. Is the community always right? God no, but the assumption of OSRS was options driven by the players and when we do not have that than we do not have shit.
