Whenever I visit the RS forums or even the tip.it news articles, I see tons of people whining and complaining about this update or that update or that JaGex has lied to us. So JaGex decided to introduce "buy spins" for the populare/unpopular (depending on who you talk to or believe) Squeal of Fortune. This is no matter what they (JaGex OR the players), a micro-transaction and real world trading (RWT was (and is) against JaGex's rules) People are not supposed to be able to buy their way to success in the game, but isn't paying for membership buying your way to success? Doesn't buying a monthly membership grant you access to skills and items not available to free players? I think so. But JaGex is allowed to change the rules in order to incorporate a feature within the game that grows their profit margin. No one is forced to buy spins and these feature has not destroyed the game for people who play the game for fun rather than ranks or huge coinage. The game is suppose to be fun but people keep complaining and whining about every little update or change that JaGex makes. They are the ones who is ruining the game for themselves. Yes, JaGex changed their rules in order to allow for the buy spins feature and yes I think that was a mistake of integrity on their part, but ultimately it is their business, not mine. But to endlessly whine and complain about everything when in reality it does nothing to stop you from playing the game (horrible fps is the only thing that really stops people from enjoying the game and that is something that even I complain about). Only you can make your achievements mean anything, how other people play the game should have NO effect on how you play the game (I may not like rankers but I don't let them stop me from enjoying the game). Only you control what your character does, no one but you can ruin the game for yourself (Unless you're talking fps, lag and bots).
All that said, polls and feedback mean nothing when people can make multiple accounts and masquerade as multiple people within the game and the forums while only being one person in reality. I do not believe anything said for or against the SoF due to this simple truth. Statistics can be skewed and often are mis-used. The SoF is harmless fun for me and since I am not forced to buy spins, my account information is never in danger. I follow the rules and I play for fun, period!
And yes I realize that my rant can be seen as a complaint in and of itself, my point is all the endless whining and complaining that occurs in the forums and in tip.it articles over the same thing day after day.
