I think what suomi is trying to say is that Runescape in general has been on the decline. And it's true. They could have made changes to make things better but these days every update just keep getting worse. I vividly remember the days when Jagex promised that they would never do microtransactions. Now, we have SOF and all sorts of decorative crap. They promised that the game would always have a spot for free players, that they would treat free players as players. But what did they do? They removed the f2p highscores. There are so many instances where Jagex has continued to make bad decisions, one after another. Making Rs 07 yet another bad decision. They simply split the community into 2. They could have just focus on making their game playable again. If Jagex were not so short term hungry, if they were more long term hungry, they could rebuild this game again. In fact, a lot of old players are waiting to just enjoy this game again. The day might not come. & if you want prove that runescape is going downhill, you just need to look at the numbers as soumi pointed out. Fact is, change is inevitable. Yes. But the changes could have been a lot better. tl;dr The game sucks now.
