Although I don't think that Jagex's "fix" to the RWT was a good idea, removing skills would be 10 times worse than what they did. PKing and staking are fun, and revenants are a pain. However, without fishing, woodcutting, and mining, there would be little cash floating around. If you want to PK and stake, go find a different, combat oriented game. A good deal of players on RuneScape skill to fund their combat goals. Where else would they get the fish they needed for slayer, or the money to buy their armour?
