Why do you feel melee is the most popular combat choice? (12-Mar-2007)
A few weeks ago, melee was named as the favoured combat choice with 58% of the vote. This may not have been your opinion, but the number surprised us! In this poll we would like you to choose that option which, more than the others, you think makes other people favour melee over Magic and Ranged. These are not necessarily Jagex's opinions - these are conceivable reasons for melee being popular.
