were botters really not the issue? if the intention was to truly decrease gp from coming into the game at such a fast rate, then the nerf should have been on the speed at which you can mine amethyst.
I've never tested it myself but i've heard people say that amethyst mining is 3-4m+ per hour. Both afk and safezone. Yes I agree that at that rate the gp/hour should be nerfed, but the price of the item shouldn't change.
If osrs rates are 300k per hour, then zenyte should have matched that from the beginning. Due to the buff of increasing amethyst mining speed, people went hard on amethyst for several weeks. In my opinion, devs are at fault. And now instead of going to the root of the problem, it really does seem like a "quick band-aid fix" as @glitchput it.
Still very upset with this and I hope that this post doesn't just get swept under the rug. Please look into a better solution.
Also got to remember osrs is x1 rate. We can achieve amysthest mining in like a day. Maybe look at different mining speeds for each exp rate if you want to keep value.
