Content Development Team

Content Developers are Jagex employees who, as the title implies, think of and develop content updates. They are generally asked to develop a certain update with a particular goal (for example "a new, low-budget Herblore training method") and are more or less free to fill it in as they please and devise its mechanics, narrative and gameplay. The updates' lore aspects are reviewed by Mod Osborne and sometimes Mod Mark before they are approved. Additonally, there are Senior Content Developers, who have more freedom in their work.
