"Ok so firstly, this isn't something we've done before
A vote on this kind of scale, I mean
so there are always teething problems
but obviously there is a lot of interest in the subject
so thanks to those who have voted already
to those worried about others using your names - don't worry
we aren't looking at names
Jagex is very confident we can deal with goldfarmers and rwt
and botting etc
we have several new iniatives to deal with those issues
and believe we can control it
We have not given up the fight - far from it
You have to trust us on that
Literally some anti bot tech just came through like within the last month
Which means as soon as we realised we could bring it back
we ran the voting thing
So basically it's happening now because we think we can do it safely
There are of course checks on the poll, dont worry about fake
We will try to keep it as close to 2006 wildy as possible
I cant go into detail on every single wildy change
But basically things like quests and minigames will be relocated
to elsewhere in the game
there will be no wildy free worlds <- He means worlds without wildy in them.
but things like clue scrolls or abyss, etc may be altered
to accommodate for the greater risk - honestly not sure yet
corrupt* items will be deleted or made more rare
They will be made available through other means
Revs were designed as a replacement for the threat of the pker
if the pkers are back the revs are gone
but they will likely feature elsewhere"

"Staking I am very excited about
As that would return with no restrictions
So if you wanted to stake a phat you could
against a candle or whatever
BH and pvp worlds will go for now
sorry****
Argh!!
Bounty hunter and pvp worlds will go for now
Poll and vote are not fake
Althrough there is a fake post mod osborne
on some of the fansites - it is fake
Mod Osborne is most upset
The ge mixed with the economy - I have no idea
Sorry ranks confused chaotic with corrupt
I mean the pvp gear
RS guiness world records - honestly that was a bug
Its the numbers im concerned about not the names
I dont plan on rolling back the graphics no
just the gameplay
issues like extreme pots and new weapons
will be considered carefully - is all I can say
Many of these things were thinking about ourselves right now
were just waiting to see what the vote does first
no gravestones in the wildy no
but will change what's in the wilderness
so please dont assume we're killing treasure trails
More questions
I think im up to date with the ones pmed
Please, to my listeners, listen to the ranks when im gone
summoning - not sure yet
many questions about fire capes
though I don't see why you'd risk it in the wildy
unless you were a bit maaaaaaaad
Black marks??? This has nothing to do with black marks
gravestones I cant answer questions on
its something we are still considering
I personally would like to see gravestones remain in the ma
i dont like people benefiting from an npc kill
or luring people, etc
Ep system gone
Pile jumping will work as it did in 06
Spawn to the killer first, than others
untradeables, complicated
they don't work as great right now, maybe a better system
Should be written to deal with untradeables
but honestly thats something else we're thinking about now
More?
As I say, right now we're gauging your feedback
we dont have answers to all questions
since we're not sure if its going to happen yet
but we know we can do it safely"

"Things like brawler gloves - yes, again too specific right now
No release dates announced for this as always
Look out for more annoucements - but not here
no comment about speed or order of updates
Ranks - questions on specific items or abilities
should not be answered at this time.
ranks - stop asking me about release strategy
we do not discuss that here, you know that
CC capacity is restricted
Please pass this info on - it's 100% true on the time of writing
dont just forward question please ranks - consider them first
Lootshare + Wildy, now there is something I havne't considered
but I dont see how it would work in conjuction
but I will think carefully about that one, good point
Many people will find content moved about
as we reshape the environment
relocated, not deleted
Other content is being considered on a case-by-case basis
Case-by-case basis means that each thing is considered carefully
and that we wont have to have a rule that covers it all
"what about x,y, or z"
I will not answer specifics at this time as we have not fully decided
Were waiting to see your interests first
No plans for a forum faq yet
Consider this answers to all your questions
as close to 06 as possible
+ keeping all the new cool stuff in one way or another
Specifics are being considered as we speak
thats the answers to all the questions
Anyway peeps - thanks for listening!
finally a personal note - i am totally nuetral here
my concern is we don't bring back the issues we previously had
and I am convinced that we have the tech to deal with those
100% sure
w00ters out"

All of these quotes have been confirmed true, pics of these chat logs can be found on the tip.it forums.

Oh, and also, another quote from a mod in relation to being able to vote no in the poll:
"22-Dec-2010 19:56:31
Phase 2 will be coming soon and this will answer a lot of questions. There will be a "No" option.
