RuneScape and Old School RuneScape developer Jagex recently sent out a player survey floating a range of fairly extreme potential changes to premium membership, which unlocks the lion's share of content in both MMOs, such as an "ads included" tier and another "conjoint membership" tier that would cover both games, run $350 annually, and include "enhanced player support" and exclusive world (server) access. Not everyone received the survey, or even the same survey, but various versions were quickly shared online.
Jagex isn't saying this stuff is happening, only asking players how they feel about the idea. Folks, they ain't feelin' good. The fact that the company, which has a history of intrusive microtransactions in RuneScape especially, even proposed these ideas was enough to trigger a storm of fire, brimstone, and canceled subscriptions in both communities.
