I am suggesting to have ore rocks give more than one ore most of the time like in Runescape.
Supports?
RuneScape doesn't give more then 1 ore.
Yes, you get a random amount of ores from each rock.
It's like cutting a tree.
I'm pretty sure RS has always had one ore come from a rock. Unless they just made an extremely recent update that allowed multiple to be mined from one rock that I'm unaware of...

I'm sure you can get more then one Ore from a rock. I'm positive.
Unless they've made an update taking it away. I haven't played in a while.

When a player clicks on a rock, they will hit it with their pickaxe and attempt to extract the ore. The higher level the rock (e.g., adamantite and runite), the longer the mining procedure will take, requiring the player to have some degree of patience.
After the ore has been mined, the rock will no longer have a visible vein of colour for a while. (In the past, the whole rock would change shade when the ore was mined.) Eventually, another ore will respawn and the rock will regain its vein of colour. Players can only mine a rock when ore is available. Ore respawn times differ with the level requirement of the rock and the amount of people on the server (e.g., runite rocks can take up to 25 minutes to respawn, while iron rocks take about 10 seconds).

Rune essence is an exception to this as there is no respawn time and players can mine continuously.
Players can continuously mine multiple pieces of coal and gold ore in the Living Rock Caverns until the concentrated coal/gold rock collapses.
Maybe you were thinking of essence lol. And rock caverns weren't released in 2006 :P
I know for a fact you at least used to be able to, because there would be 20 people mining on 4 iron rocks at Varrock West mine.
Multiple people can mine an ore at once, but only one person can get the ore from it.
No because people would drop it as they were mining.
Ok I'm retarded for posting this:

That's called power mining. You have always only gotten one single ore per rock, it's not like woodcutting.

The only way you can receive multiple ores from a rock is if you have the Varrock armor and even that is limited to 2.
