D. V. Devnull

DV is F2P, isn't he? F2P'ers don't have access to antifire potions. Of course, there's also only one dragon in F2P, and as far as I'm aware she's still broken. Yes, I am indeed F2P! The Anti-Dragon Shield has been my defensive mainstay for years now, and it's worse than appalling that Jagex has gone and taken it away, as it leaves me without a shield I know and trust to keep me safe. :( On other notes, it isn't the only thing making me want to leave. The fact that Jagex has [bleep]ed F2P over for 7 years in a row now should also be a good indicator of reasons that I would want to leave. Plus, there are a whole slew of extra things that have been turned problematic by the introduction of the EoC, including non-listening controls. :angry: In fact, the only reason I haven't left yet is because I've got nowhere to turn the next time I stress out. That, and the fact that I've already come back due to that problem quite a few times already. :wall: ~D. V. "Jagex is too sticky a spider web..." Devnull

I'm viewing that site, these forums, and everything else on an ASUS VS247H-P, with the sharpening set to non-interfering perfection. It's definitely anything but a CRT, and the legibility on the new site beta isn't that great for quite a few background colors because of the font/background mixture. Which, BTW, both the old and new sites are being affected in terms of background colors at the moment. Somebody brightened up the yellow background used in the skill calcs, and/or unbolded something that should still be bold, and I can tell! :blink: ~D. V. "They know something's really changed..."

My apologies... I should have made it more clear. :( RS:EoC won't let you wield a Staff (Such as the 'Staff of Fire') and the Anti-Dragon Shield together. So my normal configuration is impossible to use now, and I'm blocked from launching into combat how I normally would. :wall: ~D. V. "Hopefully, that isn't as clear as mud?" Devnull

Granted, but it leaves you in a world of awful (as in, honestly and totally horrible to everyone) dubstep, and all because you can't properly control that reality-altering power. :( I wish Jagex had not messed up RS:EoC like they did. -.- ~D. V. "If only there was a better multiplayer game..." Devnull

I know how you feel... They've even blocked mages from wielding an Anti-Dragon Shield (Critical to me), right along with not providing live in-game reporting (like what the Beta had) to deal with some issues. Worse, I logged in on my main only to find out that I had to hit the damned Home Tele immediately due to where (Behind the Bar in Falador's Rising Sun Inn) they stuck me! RS is pretty much ruined for me, and now I wish I had a good different multiplayer game (preferably browser-based) to move to. Unfortunately, there just doesn't seem to be any that I can find worthwhile. :sad: ~D. V. "Trapped in a non-escapable web..." Devnull

Banned because I simply floated to check out of caution, then tried clicking when my status bar didn't show anything. :razz: ~D. V. "Gotta love multi-stage checks..." Devnull

Outer Limits, anyone? :blink: ~D. V. "That will be both my thought on the previous, and thought for the next..." Devnull

I agree with this thought... I might siggy it when I update my profile next. :shades: ~D. V. "Probably about to be more angry at the RS:EoC..." Devnull

Banned because no link is present there, so we can't click anyway. :ugeek: ~D. V. "Having a geek-gasm..." Devnull

I've had that problem with the Port Sarim lodestone for ages. I really hope it's not going to start with the others now. Especially Varrock. I use that one pretty regularly. I got two words for all of you: SAFE MODE :geek: Yeah, hold down 'S' on your keyboard while you're loading RuneScape. It helps insta-break the problem for me, and gets me right back in where I last got stuck. ;) On other notes, if they haven't fixed the problem with Mages and the Anti-Dragon Shield, I'm going to leave RuneScape forever (give or take the holiday events, obviously) upon the moment that I've got a game to move away to. Having an Anti-Dragon Shield is critical no matter where I go and/or what I do when combat becomes involved, and not having one is a permanent game-breaker for me, seeing as I'm a mere F2P. :angry: Even further, I've been unable to complete Lady Deathknell's Combat Academy due to some other kind of glitch, so I'm unable to finish learning the combat system. This is another perma-game-breaker for me, and in addition prevents me from being ready for Dungeoneering, thereby blocking me from my 55 Dunge goal. If Jagex didn't fix it, it's one more reason on the fire for me to 'gtfo' forever. :mad: Since we're in the note of it, I might as well add that Jagex's failure to give low-end fletching and Chaos RC'ing back to F2P has also become quite a reason to leave. F2P needs to be able to be more self-sufficient, and Jagex has failed in their thoughts of F2P being "the basic full game" in many ways, this being at least a couple. :huh: At this moment, not having a suitable browser-based game and/or otherwise to move to is the only thing keeping me from leaving. If I try to quit without a reserve option, stress makes me break down and come back to RuneScape ultimately. I'm ready to call my existence a sad shame just because of this... :cry: ~D. V. "Stuck in the 'dead zone', you might say..." Devnull (p.s.: Please pardon me ranting a bit... Jagex has really gotten on my nerves over the past many years...)

Watch it... I saw that! <_< 29665 ~D. V. "Not wanting to think about that number either..." Devnull

Have you tried removing the over-sharpening on your monitor? I've got this monitor literally pixel-perfect here and saw the readability problems. :shock: ~D. V. "And they make my eyes ouch..." Devnull

Banned for massive spelling errors, and also because I hate coffee as well... can't stand the smell during/after brewing, but for some insanely odd reason the unbrewed grounds smell nice to me. :? ~D. V. "And there ya have it..." Devnull

Fixed. Eh... no. I meant it as I originally said. :o I do take part in quite a bit more than that counting game. ;) ~D. V. "You can check my post history if you don't believe me!" Devnull

Gandalf14141, we don't need to go there again. <_< 29667 ~D. V. "Sheesh..." Devnull

Banned because this is a wake-up call in an office! :lol: ~D. V. "Unfortunately, it probably hurt." Devnull

Could you give an example of a cramped table? And what do you mean by yellow-highlighted words? If possible provide a screenshot/link. I bet you they're talking about the skill calcs. :huh: <*checks and tests*> Yup, it's definitely them alright. Really bad with yellow backgrounds, and somewhat annoying with green backgrounds. It would help to darken both of those backgrounds a bit, especially the yellow one. Analyze what the old site was like in regard to that, and you should be able to fix the new site. :geek: ~D. V. "Seeing the problem, and then some..." Devnull

Hi there, and glad to see you. Watch out for the lunatics, and enjoy your stay. And don't forget to take part in the forum games! :D ~D. V. "Maybe one just greeted you?" Devnull

c6 small, perhaps? You lose a lot of exp otherwise. :? ~D. V. "Don't forget the tokens..." Devnull

Banned because it pays more to be a hero, even if it isn't in cash form. :D ~D. V. "It always pays less to be a villain." Devnull

Yeah, they really need to try viewing the new site at 4 feet or 5 feet back from a monitor, with the brightness/contrast set to 40% of maximum, while the page is stretched out to anywhere from 1024 wide to 1920 wide. They should find it is annoyingly hard to read that blasted Droid Sans font, as compared to the fonts used on the older site. :wacko: ~D. V. "Pardon me, my eyes just got done in again by looking at the new site." Devnull
