I will explain how Jagex (according my opinion) could have dealt with RuneScape gold the Ice Strykewyrms issue. Personally, I am still wondering why they have a rants forum, recent updates, feedback, etc. and so on. They have too many topics, some of which are nonsense, to keep them on the lookout for.
They should end the rants section. Then, they must declare that they won't make use of feedback posted on the Recent Updates forum, so that forum is discussion only. It is recommended to include the latest updates and an appropriate subject for the Feedback forum, so that players can provide feedback.
The sticky should have the title "Discussion Request'. Players can ask for topics to talk about (or or rant) about issues that they believe need changing. Feedback or rants that are posted in wrong forums to get Jagex the attention of Jagex should be hidden by Forum Mods. This is a massive filter that prevents massive spam in the forums and also permits Jagex to analyze the problems within the game that require attention.
So that's all good and all, but what would Jagex have dealt with Ice Strykewyrms? The answer is that they shouldn't have bothered with reading posts in topics at all. Instead, they should have set up an online poll that would allow members to decide the possibility of compromise. They should filter the votes like madmen while they do this. They should have the ability to determine which voting groups were involved, and these groups should:
Members who do not have 93 Slayer. Members who have 93 Slayer but without the Fire cape. Members with 93 Slayer. This would require some programming, but it is feasible. After the vote was cast, the players should have reviewed the results and decide if compromise was necessary. This is the way it ought to buy RS gold be.
