We mods do in fact play the game.....

The way was working, way way out of whack.  When people discovered the bug,  not one person reported it to a mod or admin. It was used for way to long. And it caused a huge crash in the price of magic logs. THAT is how admins figured there was a problem
The was magic, and all trees,  work now,  is almost the same as in rscrevolution rsc.  You can still make good bank on them.  Seers, grand tree area,  and legends guild has them.  I personally never cut at seers while working on 99, because I knew how trees worked in rsc, and assumed it was the same here. 

Anyway, Kleio had mentioned making a change,  in order to make it a bit better again.

Well how about we have a poll amongst woodcutters? See if people see this as a positive change or a negative one. See if this helps bring people together or make them hope no one comes around when woodcutting.

Seers' magics is now mostly empty, when I go by there is one person standing there and not 4 to 6 people like more often than not before the change.

I made friends at magics instead of enemies like now will be the case. There is enough negative energy coming from pking that we need things to do that bring us together. That is what makes a strong player base. Not activities that pit us against each other at every turn.

I would like to see a compromise in the very least with a bunch more magics, yews, and maybe maples in the woodcutting guild with the addition of magic log certing inside the guild. Of course I would like to see many more people's opinions on the subject. This has been a major change with no discussion or feedback that I am aware of.

And Cola, I ment no disrespect and worded  my OP badly. I am sorry that I came out so negative.

Wait, what?  That was totally contradictory.  If mods play the game, then how did it go unnoticed for so long?  There's no way they couldn't have.  Most players, including myself, assumed this was how the trees were supposed to work, so that when they're camped by 5-6 people you still got some logs.  It should certainly be encouraged to report bugs, but ultimately it's not our responsibility.

I feel changing the way the trees work was the wrong approach.  It would be better to look at why the change was necessary.  People were farming on multiple accounts so they could acquire mass amounts of logs to sell on the AH.  Why is there so much of a value for the logs?  Because of the high alch value of the bows.  The solution is to change the alch value of bows.   This reduces the demand on the AH, which reduces the amount of people multilogging to cut the tree, which eliminates the issue of fighting over trees.  Make it less profitable, and everybody wins (except for dudes woodcutting on 6 accounts).  What the current change is doing is just making it harder for people who are actually trying to raise their woodcutting/fletching level.

That’s stupid. Alching bows is a great way for Ironman to make money. The mods made the right change.  Leave it alone.

Perhaps keep the batching the same but add the part where if you had +5 people there,the trees spawn faster. Also make it so ppl can't have multiple accounts there farming them. Satisfies both sides. The way it is now, is like pulling teeth
