Alright guys, I've been monitoring the last few threads and their replies, and it's about time something was mentioned.
As the original staff member who used to run the RuneScape Updates forum said....
He did this to prevent people from getting high post count just by saying things like, "Stupid update" and such.
As for me, I don't mind negative feedback towards the updates, but if you are going to post something negative, please expand WHY you are posting it. "This update sucks" and other posts similar to that is just the kind of stuff Bug was trying to prevent and I would like to honor the rules he set for this forum. If you have an issue with an update, tell us why; constructive criticism and feedback is what helps, not blatantly insulting things without really saying why you dislike them.
This is just to help keep the discussion healthy. It's kind of a mood-killer when people come in, post how crap an update is, and then leave without expanding on it. This isn't really directed at one or two people, just everyone in general.
Thanks for your understanding.
Now, on topic about the update: I think new reward items are always nice, but the wisdom aura is a little crazy. 40k points for a 2.5% exp boost, 30 minutes every 24 hours? Most of the skilling outfits you wear (lumberjack, gold mining suit, etc.) give that same bonus. I definitely don't think it's worth 40k points.
However, the other stuff does look pretty interesting. I haven't had much time to read about the other new auras or check them out, but it's nice they keep releasing new content for it. Gives us more of a variety of things to buy to customize our style of gameplay a little better.
