Hey guys,
I've got quite a big change planned for today, so please take your time and read through everything. First of all, DOUBLE XP WEEKENDS are coming back!! We've had a long discussion on this and decided that toplists aren't working out for us. So we're getting rid off them and are re-introducing the loved double XP weekends. Don't be sad though, the voting shop doesn't disappear, we're renaming it to 'event shop'. You can gain event points by participating in special events or we will reward you in future competitions with event points. Event points will act the exact same way as voting points! All the voting points you currently have are automatically turned into event points.
Further double XP weekends will act as achievements. For instance, if we get additional 100 likes on Facebook, we'll have another double XP weekend. The same thing can be done with following us on Youtube or Twitter. In general, we'd like to get more in touch with social media. Our plan is to offer a possible double XP weekend every week.
Another aim is, that we want to make PK as fun as it used to be. We'd like to have your opinion on this topic. What do you think could introduce more people to PKing? I'm already introducing a PvP point system. It can already be tested in the live game. There may be slight changes to point gains and losses, but the overall system is pretty much done.

Currently, PvP points will only be shown in the wilderness. In the final version we'll make them togglable everywhere. I'll also setup hiscores very soon for PvP points. Would you enjoy if we resetted these points on a monthly base for more competition in the wilderness? Or would you rather keep your PvP points forever?
Moreover, since the demand of 'rares' (items that can only be obtained once at a special point) is high, we're willed to introduce more to the game. These new rares are going to be more common than our bug lanterns, bunny ears and bow-swords. I can't say much about it yet, but we're planning the release already!
On top of that, I've got a list of changes ready:- IMPORTANT: Due to the massive amount of complaints regarding teleports in the wilderness, I'm reverting that update. Teleports no longer save you from dieing inside the wilderness. However, outside the wilderness teleports safe you.
- Dharok axe attack speed reverted to 4 seconds (0.5 secs slower than it was). I've increased its accuracy from 131 to 151 though.
- Colored dark bows and gnome scarfs are now tradeable.
- Vengeance can now be used every 30 seconds.
- The Tyras guard can now also be found at the GE. He teleports you to Castle-Wars, Pest Control, Burthorpe or Duel Arena.
- Item models updated for PC tokens and CW tickets.
- 5 new capes added to CW reward shop.
- Colored dark bows are now properly usable.
- EDIT: Hiscore images updated to match the in-game skill images. PvP Points added to hiscores.
I'm sorry, but GE isn't yet ready for a public beta! We're currently testing the final version in a closed beta. When we're 99.99% sure that there aren't any abusable bugs, we'll immediately make it public!
All the best,
Thomy

Shame about the voting sites. Will the pages still remain though?
-

-

Uhm... it did work out?
-
all i remember is that it was always just short of the amount of likes for a weekend, and when it finally reached it, the weekends went up with 100 likes
i dont get the reason behind the liking on facebook and commenting on yt, just get the weekends like they always were
whats up with everybody wanting to be popular on social medias, or youtube
-
Great update, I hope that pvp points reset every month, so that ppl know who is a active pker of the month, like a pvp performance index. Cheers!
-
Was not vengeance cool down 30? Or was it 45?
Nice updates however (No for the PK points monthly reset!)
-
Awesome updates, lets hope this revives the wilderness!
Thank you!

Not this social media fuss again...
When was the last time anyone searched for an RSPS on Facebook or Twitter? YouTube I can understand, but still most of the players use the voting sites.

Wait something is wrong, Thomy just coded something useful and good! ;D
-
Well-done Thomy!
-
Maybe my Dragon maul will make pvp more interesting? :kappa:
-
Thanks for the updates :D
-
Thank you for the updates Thomy.
-
I'm glad you reverted the pvp changes, good call.
I also highly recommend that you will discuss further pvp changes before releasing them.
Don't let pvmers decide what will happen in the wilderness!
-
More great updates thomy, heres hoping we get people to stop moaning now
-
I bet Fireblast12 fapped to this.
Great update, Thomy. Not sure why you reverted the teleporting, though.
-
Thank you sir :)

It's the noob PKers who I have seen complaining. I don't think any PvMer would care about Dharoks or any of the other recent changes.

All the complaints have been made by PKers who blame their lack of skill on "bad" equipment, hence the changes.

The teleport immunity was being introduced because pvm'ers requested it, none of the pkers requested a teleport immunity.
There are no pkers in the staff team (arjen was inactive) therefore I asked politely to have a bit more communication with pkers instead of listening to the pvmers the whole time..

Great update.
