Suiku Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 The poll system has received a few necessary changes this week. For one, we can ask several questions at any one time. This means we can get more detailed responses instead of trying to get a comprehensive result from just one question! Additionally, we can propose many more answers than we could before, which means we can ask you about your favourite skill, quest or minigame without having to limit your answers to the usual ten. There are other changes - too many to cram into Postie Pete's postbag - but you'll soon find out that we can add images, thank you messages, the possibility of selecting several answer options, and feedback about how we have used your answers. This last one is very important to us - we want you to know just how important the polls are to us, and how much they can affect future content. Which brings us onto the final additions that have arrived with the shiny new poll system: Guaranteed Content polls and Player-submitted poll week. Every so often, we will release a poll that leads directly to content being added to the game; whether that be the reward for an upcoming quest or which minigame deserves an update. This does not mean that other polls will not lead to content changes - far from it - but it does mean that we can guarantee that the winning choice will make its way into the game. Keep your eyes peeled for these Guaranteed Content polls - they will be preceded by a news post, much like this one! Finally, the Player-submitted poll week is your opportunity to ask the entire RuneScape community a question that has been niggling you. So, we would like you to send any poll ideas you have to [email protected] and we will handpick the most interesting of them. These will then be published, once a month, in Player-submitted poll week! Please take the time to vote in the polls. As they always have been, they are an essential means of finding out what you want from us! Veteran Cape Owner (10 year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ltje Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I need to have played for 12 hours. :| Gheesh, my account is over 2 years old. And you won't get a 1200 skill total in under 12 hours of playing. Anyway, I guess that those 12 hours start after the release of the poll... :S Retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freesia Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Farming got the 2nd lowest in favourite skills, which is apparently not surprising. Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake_Corsair Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Farming got the 2nd lowest in favourite skills, which is apparently not surprising. ROFL which is the favorite skill I voted for. I'm surprised it wasn't the lowest. If Jagex ever made a perfect update, there would be players complaining about nothing to complain about.[hide=My Stats][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhaperPlane Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I managed to vote, and a new skill is coming! :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suiku Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 The new skill is ENGINEER! j/k I think it's just they mean they're improving some existing skill right now Veteran Cape Owner (10 year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ltje Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 What surprises me, is that Hunter is quite a favourite skill to train, but very few people want to see it updated, while the skillcape is at 71... Retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixxedstuff Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I note that woodcutting is no.2 on the desired update list- what can you add? Chainsaws? I mean, there's not much more to it than what's already there, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fronzz Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I voted for Firemaking as both...I thinjk that Firemaking is just so enjoyable.. when you have steel barsTHE GREAT RACE TO 99 FM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wachtwoord Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think this is a pretty good addition. I've always thought the polls we're a little simple. When everything's been said and done, more has been said than done.All skills 80+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighs Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I'm one of the few who voted for Farming as my favorite skill to train. It's easy, profitable, you don't need to click repeatedly, and there's something new to plant every two levels or so. As for skills that need an update... Firemaking more so than any other, in my opinion. The only real use is for quests and Shades of Mort'ton, and a skill should be more versatile than that. There simply isn't enough to do. I'm not sure what could be added, to be honest (and I think that Jagex has been doing an admirable job of making the skill somewhat relevant with the Balloon quest and others), but there's got to be something.

spikerkid Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I found it so hard to choose lol. "whats your favourite skill to train?" umm they are all boring.. so I just picked slayer. Quit RuneScape :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiteboy1102 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 What surprises me, is that Hunter is quite a favourite skill to train, but very few people want to see it updated, while the skillcape is at 71... The skillcape is at 99 it's the just the highest lvl thing you can do is 71 . I don't really care yet cause I'm only lvl 20 hunter. And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

I mean, there's not much more to it than what's already there, in my opinion. Yum. I voted slayer for fav skill, and Firemaking for improvement. Jagex are going to look at peoples fav skills as the ones that don't need updates. I hope Jagex don't release that new skill too soon, I'm still getting to grips with Hunter. :? Quit RS to play real games. :P Bye TIF, miss you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artemis_42 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I voted for Slayer as most enjoyable to train, and Hunter as the skill to update. I was surprised to see how few people thought that it didn't need to be updated as much as other skills (runecrafting aside). They do seem to be putting a lot of emphasis on skills with these last few poles, so I wouldn't be surprised if they released a new one in the near future.
