Another thing that has cropped up in recent times, which we'd like to clear up once and for all, is the common belief that RuneScape is a game aimed at kids. This is absolutely not the case. We can see how this view has fostered, however, thanks to our over-zealous chat filter, Quick Chat worlds, “dumbing down” of certain bits of humour and storylines, as well as certain areas of the game like the Stronghold of Security, which do provide solid security advice but perhaps come across as a little condescending to the vast majority of our older players. I unreservedly apologise for this and to rectify this we have already removed a number of words from the chat filter and are currently working on reviewing and amending any content we feel is too kid-focused.

I think I might like this guy. wub.gif

True, but the old CEO didnt pay much attention to the customers until near the end, after major updates (Removal of wilderness, BH, trade limit, world switching, etc)

This guy is a godsend. The last CEO would do anything to stop RWT'ers. In his goal of ridding RuneScape of them, he destroyed the game play. The new CEO is a RuneScape player, himself. He will have great ideas for the game. I like the fact that he recognizes WE AREN'T ALL 5 YEAR OLDS. God, someone finally got it right.

I doubt he'll do anything radical right away, but maybe in time he can do stuff like add more pvp worlds, something needed BADLY by clans right now.

he is good. he has already said the video advert on f2p was a stupid idea for money. so clearly, he wants to make a good game, then a good game = good money instead of a shit game with lots of ads = money

i expect something fixed with the hole pvp thing prob, also some other general stuff along with trading limits and ge

I actually love this guy already. I read everything he said and he sounds like he really wants to change Runescape, in a way that makes the better, and not like the old CEO, who only cared about making Jagex lose less profit to RWT.

The fact that he's a Runescape player himself is great. He hopefully will understand what we really want in terms of PvP, minigames etc. He seems like a nice guy and I think he's going to make RS even more awesome in the future.

If he introduces Mounts, then he'll be my God@
Oh & if he removes the Trading limit thing, it's not really working anyway >.>, it's just limiting our fun, every other game doesn't have a limit like this wtf#

Back on topic, I think this CEO will be quite good for the game.

I noticed the new head of Runescape, mod Vince, in BTS 2009. I didn't know there was also a new CEO. I wonder what happened to Andrew/Paul Gower..

Anyways I really liked the sounds of 2009 just from the BTS 2009 and the minor tweaks that made a difference. It looks like its only going to get better from here.

Andrew is still lead designer.

YOU CAN SAY DAMN NOW!!! woeh.gif

PS: LOL at the forum thread where you can ask questions. Kudos to Randy, he got a post in on page 2. Now 22 hours later my post is on page 565. tongue.gif They should give Fmods more access so they can purge the spammers.

PSS: Good God, what a bunch of moronic idiots. I hope this Mark chap hasn't //wrists yet.
