    I think if the shift had happened Jagex would be much more successful.

    HAHA - But the difficulty is what you have mentioned.

    1. Uh, everything this would be a really long list. 2. Everyone in the OSRS team and Timbo, SteveW and loads of others. I like to think I get on well with everyone. 3. Ash does 4. I'd loved to have seen sailing released, I mentioned more about it in another answer to someone else. 5. We used scrum to develop. The process was ideation, test with community, test more with community, poll to communty, build in scrum with a dedicated team, test with community while building, build some more, release when ready. 6. I think it is better for the polls, but I think the pols are not longer fit for purpose and need revising. 7. I did indeed yes. 8. There have been many jmods in clans over the years. Not sure they are allowed anymore after Jedgate.

    I haven't in OSRS. I don't have a lot of time unfortunately. I have been part of the same guild for 11 years in a game called Star Wars Galaxies. There was a Jagex outing to the bowling alley and a certain senior person (I won't say who) was kicked out of the bowling alley for toking on a reefer (see how hip I am with the lingo).

    Oooh, 2005-6 I think. We probably did overlap.

    The F2P game in OSRS is very different to how it was back in RS2. In OSRS 99.9999% of people sub up within an hour as people already know about the game. The only thing I didn't get int F2P was short term (a matter of hours) membership tokens that would be rare drops from world events (member monsters invading Varrock for example).

    I designed the entirety of the first iteration of Zeah..... I got the scale wrong hence why it was so big..... but then no one else noticed either.

    1. I would add specific equipment that would only become active above a certain level to push people deeper. 2. I haven't spoken to him in a while, last time I did he was doing well and enjoying himself... not sure what he was doing and thought it best not to ask,

    It was being abused to another level which had to be stopped. We only really took action against very few extreme examples of it. Osbuddy was allowed as it was developed by an employee who had permission from the CEO and Runelite was too popular to stop. In my mind both clients make the game less fun, but that is just me.

    Yes, I think I was in them once. Can't remember though.

    Not getting PvP sorted out.

    I think there is a lack of knowledge of what to do for PvP. Different parts of PvP are looked at in isolation rather than PvP being understood and considered as a whole. Before I left I created a dashboard which showed the PvP journey for each account but I didn't get the opportunity to fully analyse it and start piecing together the user journey and what really encourages players to try PvP. I've mentioned it a few times but there needs to be a hollistic view taken and a full understanding of motivations and how to grow that portion of the community.

    All I did with the leadership of maxed was to hand my account over to the CM team and said, sort it out. I don't know what happened after that. The whole point of the clan was to be a stepping stone for the maxed players to see what the clan system was about. But in true maxed player style they went and took it to the top of the leaderboard.

    1. I think the right sort of PvP should be available to the right sort of PvPer. I think if there was only one type of PvP you would see less of it. I think what is missing is a funnel to get more people into PvP. 2. The aim was to get more people to PvP as it was a safe area for people to do that. If I remember rightly, overall PvP went up so it did its job, what was missing was how do we get these people to fight in the wilderness. I don't ever see it being removed. 3. I don't, I think you have hardcore players in the team or ones that focus on very specific parts of the community and the people that get forgotten are the 80% of people who just want to play the game for fun.
