Never said it was, I’m just saying it’s the most reliable source.

Of course a lot of that is bots and gold farmers.

That arguement has been debunked a like 2 years ago

By who, a gold selling site? Seriously just pay a visit to menaphos sandstone on a non level locked world. You can see for yourself how many bots or gold farmers there are. It’s absolutely jam packed. And that’s just one place. Don’t try to tell me they don’t exist when I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

Hey guys I wanna play rs3 since the lore and story there seems a lot more epic than osrs. WHen I pay for osrs membership do I also get rs3 membership?

Yes, the membership is for your Jagex account.
You can pay for membership with cash/rs3 gold->bonds/osrs gold->bonds and it will give you membership for both games.
You cannot, however, be logged into osrs and rs3 at the same time.
Hope you enjoy questing :)

HELL YEAH time to actually finish storylines lol. 80% of osrs quests are just cliffhangers.
Also how often do the double exp events happen?

Usually 4 times a year. Expect one next month.

W0W and Runescape are different games. A WOW expansion is literally a different game than its progenitor. Thank you for reminding me how secluded this community is by means of MMO knowledge outside of Runescape.
Anyway...
A major update would be an engine rehaul. You're still on Runetek from 2013. They were going to do this a few years ago showcasing a lighting update for reflective surfaces but quickly realized their engine was out of date and cannot be updated that easily. A major update would be a complete revitalization graphically. However a poll suggest you guys want it on your phone so you can AFK at work. Yea.. this game sucks.

I can virtually guarantee I've played WoW more than you.

So in your view you don't view anything short of something on the level of a WoW expansion as a major content update. So my point still stands: your expectations are unreasonably high.

Oh and by the way WoW is still running on the same engine from 2004.

Developer Jagex notes that the game has over 1.1 million subscribers, while “many millions more” play the free version. so dead.

Just to clarify, those Big numbers on f2p is the gold sellers lvl 3 accounts and gold farmers...

4 times a year, but to get a better idea of the dates check here:
https://runescape.wiki/w/Double_XP_Live
If you go down to 'Events' it shows the dates of dxp on previous years and they mostly happy within 2 weeks of the last year's dxp.

Again. A WOW expansion is a different game to a previous WOW game the engine doesn't matter it's the content that is drastically different. You're the one who brought up WOW, this strawman really is something else.

WoW sucks lol

You had your first day of philosophy 101 yesterday, didn't you?

You're not using any of those words correctly.

The point is you're saying that the only thing that qualifies as a major content update is a literal entire re-invention of the game. Maybe you don't think the game needs major content updates to be considered not dead, but given that context in which you were responding to me, it wouldn't make sense for you to respond if you thought that. And thinking the game needs regular complete overhauls? Not only is that a comically unreasonable standard to hold the game to, if they actually did that it would have an enormously detrimental impact on the game.

It didn't used to, but in its current form, yes it does.

[Cal]

It's honestly probably because of the price increase lol. It used to have a lot more players and it's conveniently dipped really low just recently.

[SilentDame]

In my world, too many player. Lol. Hop world?

[Kaelmato]

The game isn't dead. It's dying an extremely slow agonizing death.
