A friend and I got bored, and decided to make a list of "improvements", that we feel would overall improve RuneScape a lot. Here's what we came up with, I'd like to see your thoughts and ideas. I'm going to post this on the official forums eventually.
QUOTE
1-world map require a right click.
2-total xp shown in stat menu
3-total bank worth shown in bank interface
4-auto join for clan chat
5-clan and friends list seperated
6-re sizable chat window
7-ability to order and group your friends list, and sort via different modes.
8-ability to move rooms in your house without deleting
9-friends list and ignore list combined, you could swap via a small button like the quest/achievement diary tab was.
10-optional chat filter
11-jagex's own clan database on the website
12-players avatars, combat level, quest points, and other various information shown in the highscores.
13-scroll tab in stats menu removed
14-your summon familiar always on top
15-ability to store more scrolls in helms
16-familiars need to hit higher, they are tanks atm.
17-more prayers, it is crap compared to summoning.
18-a use for all pubs in the game, perhaps an inn you can sleep in to restore your hp/prayer/summoning points?
19-no gp limit for beasts of burden
20-ability to combine super attack str def pots into a Super Set Potion.
21-Ability to combine the attack strength defence hitpoints ranged magic prayer summoning skillcapes into a Combat Cape.
22-more things to buy with slayer points, slayer Armour with bonuses like the black mask.
23-agility with a similar concept to slayer points, with bonuses for amounts of perfect laps. ability to buy items, herbs, skilling materials and stuff.
24-increased frame rate, it could use a bigger limit.
25-the way skillcapes curve to be removed.
26-pure essence made mine able in f2p.
27-increased yield based off your farming level, atm it's randomized.
28-all "make x" "fletch x" etc options made optional, slows a lot of skills down.
29-Special Bar added up near the other icons around the minimap.
30-total experience appear when you hover cursor over your total level
31-barrows, kbd, kalphite queen, etc updates. they are all outdated and drop crappy items.
32-signatures, avatars, and more features on the official forums.
33-ability to sort the high scores via xp and not levels.
34-music cape for all tracks unlocked.
35-inferno adze given the ability to occasionally smelt the ores you mine.
36-improved customer support, ability to send jagex messages.
37-Add a new magicks spell book, one that has the power equivalent of what melee and range has.
38. improved chance of rare drops when on a slayer task.
39. a highscores page for xp gain records, though this might promote more no-lifing which isn't good.

Are you accepting additions? If so, I have a few that I'd like to add:
- Beeping noises for when you have low health (optional)
- A noise every time you recieve a PM (optional)
- Clan houses/buildings
- Clan directory.
- Clan banks
- Many more clan options.
- Savings bank with interest.
- Lending more items at a time.
- Ability to appear offline to certain people on your friends list (useful when having a private conversation and are being interrupted)
- Ability to see the "Items Kept on Death" interface during combat (not taking up window, but replacing equippable item screen)
- RuneScape insurance (pay for a month of insurance and it will pay you back money if you die and lose wealth; various insurance plans)

Oh god, yes please.
Sometimes there's one person I want/need to talk to, but I don't turn on chat just because I don't want to have all my friends message me.

We could make a petition on the RSOF. We need to compile a list of everything and get a list of people who support. Then we post it and have everyone post their support at the same time. I think that will attract their attention. And besides, lots of people have the same feelings as you (and a lot of MSW probably) and have already posted suggestions. This is a compilation of a ton of them and an addition of a few. Lot's of people will support!
If you don't mind, I think I will post my RuneScape insurance idea in the RS suggestions forum. I wonder if I'll see spaceone there... I wonder if he's going to add me.... I think I'll go right now...

I posted my Insurance suggestion in the forums at QFC 83-84-688-59867051. So far, not very good opinions, but that is one person at the moment. Feel free to check it out.

Add a pop-up box when you get a PM, like FunOrb does ATM.

For my suggestion, a drop all button would be godly.

I copyed and pasted instead of qouted thingy so it would be easyer for me .
i agree with some , disagree with some , and some are already ingame .
1-world map require a right click. (ehh maybe just a bigger map tat has a zoom in/out like in WoW or WaR or any other decent no brower based mmorpg)
2-total xp shown in stat menu (agree)
3-total bank worth shown in bank interface (agree)
4-auto join for clan chat (i think thats already in game , i read somewhere where it remebers and auto joins if clan still exist , maybe more like a guild system)
5-clan and friends list seperated ( idk wat u talking bout , i have 2 diff)
6-re sizable chat window (already ingame for normal detail , dont have the memory to make it advailable in HD)
7-ability to order and group your friends list, and sort via different modes. (agree)
8-ability to move rooms in your house without deleting (agree , i am more of a architectural type of guy)
9-friends list and ignore list combined, you could swap via a small button like the quest/achievement diary tab was. (agree , this would open another slot on the HuD for the summoning thing to go back down there )
10-optional chat filter (agree and no option to report for abusive lang. )
11-jagex's own clan database on the website (agree , like a clan highscrores , and offical wars in which u get points )
12-players avatars, combat level, quest points, and other various information shown in the highscores. (disagree , u can't get a full body pic cuz that would take to much time and memory to make all the diff combinations of armour , maybe just no armour allowed in photo place)
13-scroll tab in stats menu removed (disagree , it is in normal detail , not enough memory or cash to make in HD)
14-your summon familiar always on top (agree)
15-ability to store more scrolls in helms (doesn't affect me , i dont summon , but when i do ill probably agree )
16-familiars need to hit higher, they are tanks atm. (maybe instead of harder hitting , every other 5 auto attacks a ability called Taunt ? i would really start summoning ) (*refer to bottom for more info)
17-more prayers, it is crap compared to summoning. ehh maybe protect prays protect more or just double ur defense?)
18-a use for all pubs in the game, perhaps an inn you can sleep in to restore your hp/prayer/summoning points?
19-no gp limit for beasts of burden (ehh ppl would be running around with all there cash on em with little worry )
20-ability to combine super attack str def pots into a Super Set Potion. (agree and disagree )
21-Ability to combine the attack strength defence hitpoints ranged magic prayer summoning skillcapes into a Combat Cape. (dont affect me , dont use skill capes)
22-more things to buy with slayer points, slayer Armour with bonuses like the black mask. (agree)
23-agility with a similar concept to slayer points, with bonuses for amounts of perfect laps. ability to buy items, herbs, skilling materials and stuff. (maybe agile weapons that like weigh little to nothing but hit like rune? (**)
24-increased frame rate, it could use a bigger limit. (maybe for steller dawn , like a non browser version but works the same way with just 10x better graphics )
25-the way skillcapes curve to be removed. (this would help the FPS so agree)
26-pure essence made mine able in f2p. (disagree , prices would drop )
27-increased yield based off your farming level, atm it's randomized. (agree , or better yet exp )
28-all "make x" "fletch x" etc options made optional, slows a lot of skills down. (agree/disagree , would make price drop to make ppl want to do alot less but the less ppl do it the higher the price (it would bounce alot more often )
29-Special Bar added up near the other icons around the minimap. (agree with the freinds/ignore would open another slot on the HuD for summoning opening another map icon for spec bar )
30-total experience appear when you hover cursor over your total level (about just right beside for no need to hover)
31-barrows, kbd, kalphite queen, etc updates. they are all outdated and drop crappy items. (agree)
32-signatures, avatars, and more features on the official forums. (agree with signatures , disagree with avatars we got head pics and bosy pics take to much time/memory ..am i repeating , maybe ur repeating , agree with more features but plz be more spec.)
33-ability to sort the high scores via xp and not levels. (agree , but if u if u sort by lvl and 2 ppl have same lvl the person with more exp is first )
34-music cape for all tracks unlocked. (agree and air guitar is the special emote )
35-inferno adze given the ability to occasionally smelt the ores you mine. (agree)
36-improved customer support, ability to send jagex messages. (agree , would take ro much time to read em all so forums would just be as good as suggestions )
37-Add a new magicks spell book, one that has the power equivalent of what melee and range has. (may be 2 new ones)(***)
38. improved chance of rare drops when on a slayer task. (agree)
39. a highscores page for xp gain records, though this might promote more no-lifing which isn't good. (agree , but i think adventure Log is acually doin this , but AL still in beta)

Monsters attack ur pet instead of you for 3 secs
Players do 50% less dmg to you for 3 secs , But 120% dmg to you
5 sec cool down
(**)Agile Weapons/Armour
Same defense bonus as rune Armour , require 50 att/def and 60 Agility
(***) New Spell books

1 Mage *Name1* , 1 healer *Name2* , 1 tank *Name3*

Karil's x 1.3 = *Name2*
Guthan's x 1.3 = *Name3*
Barrow = Trio Bro armour

26-pure essence made mine able in f2p.
Ehh, maybe. It was originally split to put a big dent in the efficiency of RWT botting to sell gold, but with RWT eliminated for most intents and purposes, I guess it doesn't serve a lot of use anymore. There's no real reason to change it that I can see, though.
QUOTE
8-ability to move rooms in your house without deleting
You can move the Costume Room and Menagerie without deleting them already. Beyond that, it would defeat a bit of the purpose of the Construction Skill - money pit =D
Always showing your familiar on top of a pile isn't possible atm due to technical limitations. I've seen that particular one addressed in the forums.
There's also three of four in your list which have already been fixed, like the Skill Tab scroll bar and auto-joining CCs...you might want to update it.

Overall, a good list. Improving the drops of the KBD is particularly important seeing as he is not worth the time or resources to kill.

36-improved customer support, ability to send jagex messages.
The reason Jagex removed this feature was because players were abusing it by asking trivial questions.

I love the idea of having a Clan bank; but I fear it would be hard to manage and ensure that Clan leaders don't get all their members to donate to the bank and then they steal it all - but I'm sure you can create a system to avoid this.
That is, if your idea of a Clan bank is the same as mine

The world of warcraft system is good. Everybody in your guild has a rank and these can be set by the guild master to allow if or how much they can withdraw/put in the bank.
