Wilderness Promotion (Clan Events)
I think we should try to do something to promote the wilderness more, for example clan events (pking). There will be x amount of clans/teams that will be able to participate in this event (teams of 5) and the reward for winning this event will be x (perhaps a bond for each member of the winning team). This will promote the wilderness activity and perhaps convince people to pk more often (especially if wilderness events are held every week/biweekly). This event could be hosted by
uTorrent or an Administrator. This event could possibly replace the small events that occur over the span of 3 days (Friday-Sunday), depending on how big/popular it is. I would love to get some community input with this suggestion so please leave your opinions in the comment section below.
Game Panel Changes
I'm going to suggest four things that I think should be changed, they may have been suggested before.
Bonus Skill
The "Bonus Skill" option in the Game Panel isn't very informative, sure it informs the user what skill is the bonus skill but that's all it does. I'm suggesting there be some sort of explanation/interface. In this interface, it would show the current bonus skill, the next bonus skill, the bonus skill schedule and the time remaining until the bonus skill changes. This would be very informative for the user and would mean they wouldn't need to ask someone if they were confused.
Slayer Task
The "Slayer Task" option in the Game Panel only informs the user of what the slayer task is and how many of x they must kill. Though this is a good thing to have, I'm suggesting for us to be told where to find our task monster upon clicking. This would be helpful for new players however I'm aware that it may take a while to write out each location - perhaps members of staff can work together.
Kills/Deaths
The "Kills/Deaths" option in the Game Panel only shows killcount and highest killstreak, however I think it should also show the amount of deaths that you have. As previously suggested by
Chase, I think it should also show your
current killstreak as it's an informative thing to have and people who use the wilderness often would appreciate it. As noticed by
FASTCLICKS7, let me rephrase: I meant to say I think the things mentioned should be announced by your character (or at least deaths).
Mode and Rank
Just a quick one as it's not that big of a deal but I think the "Mode" and "Rank" options in the Game Panel should be announced by your character, much like the the "Playtime" option.
Edgeville Lever
The lever that's south of Edgeville leads straight into 51 wilderness without warning and I've unfortunately had to learn that the hard way. I was unaware of where it led and was curious, I assumed that if anything were to be dangerous I would've been given a warning, so I pulled the lever and was taken into the wilderness whilst having my bank with me. I'm suggesting a warning to be implemented with this lever.
Forums Suggestions
Forum Rewards
As discussed by
Hex, there should be some additional changes from my last
suggestion thread with the Forum Rewards.
Icon Explanations/Descriptions
Currently, when hovering over the majority of the forum rewards/icons it doesn't provide a description of what said icon portrays. I'm aware that there's a page for the icon descriptions but others may not know this (newer players for example). This is very simple and easy to implement so I hope this suggestion is taken into consideration.
Skill Experience Milestone
Omicron currently has two unofficial icons for the forum rewards but personally I think they should be made official and implemented as soon as possible (seeing how easy it is to do). These icons that he has show that he's achieved 200M experience in said skill and it's a great accomplishment. I'm unsure if this has already been discussed with him but hopefully this'll get the ball rolling. People should get some acknowledgement for maxing out a skill. However, one problem with this would be that it could look very tacky if someone had 22 icons... Alternatively, you could add a 200M-all-skills icon, given to those who have 200M experience in every trainable skill.
User Legend
Just a quick suggestion. Currently the user legend doesn't show all ranks on the Forums. I'm unsure if there are any other ranks that aren't shown but Veteran isn't on there. It's not a huge deal but it's easy and quick to add.
Website Suggestions
Donator Store Changes
I'm going to suggest three things that I think should be changed.
Homepage
Currently, the homepage for the store is very unprofessional and tacky in my opinion. I think we should have either Chase or Slyther do some work for the page and create something that is more appealing. Along with this, they could update the information that's on the page. Some of the donator benefits are incorrect/inaccurate (I'll be happy to go over these with whoever works on the page) and the updated donator zone should also be added.
Rares Tab
I already discussed this with Omicron but I feel as if it could be argued - I would also like community input on this. Currently, the rares tab only consists of a black partyhat, black santa hat and a partyhat set (regular). I'm suggesting for the rares tab to have more rares - perhaps having the individual partyhat colours or even a rainbow partyhat. Omicron argued that people could purchase said things through custom donations. Therefore, as an alternative to this suggestion, the rares tab could just inform the user that if they wish to purchase a rare item they need to purchase it via the custom donation system.
Supplies Tab
I think the supplies tab should consist of more items. There are only five items that are listed but there are so many more items that should be in any rsps store. It's a very non-skiller sided tab and I think it should be revamped accordingly. Some of the items that you could add into the tab could be:
Magic Logs
Runite Ore
Rune Bars
Uncut Gems
Raw Foods
Dragon Bones
