I'm 100% that we'll not see another attempt at a skill addition for two, perhaps three years. Sailing, Artisan and now Warding. Hell just TRY and mention "Summoning" anywhere on social media around this community. I feel most of the no voters came from the "no new skill ever" camp. People wanna live in their time capsule of a game forever and that will be the slow death of this game, when those max level elitist wonder where all the normies went.
The one thing I can say is in response to you saying "people want a fun skill like Slayer, and a profitable skill like Slayer" is that, that's exactly what artisan was. Artisan is Slayer for non combat. Literally the same skill with the smallest change. "go here, make this, get rewards" and it still gets shot down. I feel like the osrs community is very stubborn and entitled nowadays. Unless jagex changes how they poll we will never get a new skill, no matter how good for the game or fun it is people will auto vote no to skills and it's a shame.
its very dumb that majority of people wanted it, and it still got cancelled.. why wouldnt we wanna add more fun shit to grind? people always voting no, are ruining any freshness that could happen
A simple majority isn't enough to pass content. Jagex decided on 75% from the beginning, and even then most content passes the 75% threshold. If the community had a problem with the 75% threshold, they should have said so from the beginning and not just because this one poll failed.
OSRS doesn't have large gold sinks. Checking GE tracker it's pretty obvious levels of deflation occur as gold is put into the game at alarming rates. If people want to see what happens when a player driven economy doesn't have necessary gold or item sinks they can just look at rs3. By the time gold and item sinks were put into the 17 year old game its economy was already demolished. People need to stop using the "old school should stay old school" since OSRS is almost a completely different game then rs2. They are running off of pure nostalgia in graphics and interactions without objectively realizing OSRS is a different game that pays homage to rs2.
I don't see why you're hating on something that rs3 does way better than osrs, which is gold and item sinks. Invention single handedly solved the item inflation problem. You destroy items to get components that add perks on your gear. Inflation in osrs is much higher than rs. Because osrs doesn't have an item or gold sink. Just look at the price of bonds that tells you enough. In rs a bond moved up from around 10/15m to 25m and partially this was because of the increased price of buying a bond. In osrs it moved from like 400/500k to 2.5 mil.
Your not the only one, as far as I can see a good majority of the community is going to do just that. And its gonna turn into a never ending cycle that will eventually kill the game
I really don’t think you have any idea what you’re talking about.. the pauses and uncertainty in the way you are trying to explain things is just a turn off. Take this constructively. If you want to make a point, don’t stutter and pause throughout the whole video, it comes to the point of you sounding like you are just mindlessly babbling.

Warding didn't pass. Hopefully they can come up with a better skill for gold and item sinks.
Warding coukd have been done in crafting and a warding spell book or enchant spells simliar to crossbow bolts
Gonna spite vote no on every poll from here on out.
Why? It'll only hurt what you want for the game in the end.
Get real you fuckin loser lmao
I mean, if he wants to vote no to everything it's kind of just a weird flex. @@jkel8319

This is why voting sucks sometimes...
No warding and no new skills means the game is saved.
