14,061 Time to open another page! ~Mr. Devnull

Editor, through a slip-up on their part. :P ...What slip-up? I ain't telling! :notalk: Nope. :notalk: Wrong. And BTW, I don't like having my name misspelled. :x ***DV smashes jemathonical with a Runite Warhammer.*** :twisted: If you think anyone is The Editor, and would do that, you need a serious check up by a Psychologist. :shame: :lol: ~Mr. Devnull

I found this. It might be you and nothing to do with me, could it be possible that you're more confused about things than usual? Nope. :notalk: ... BTW, why are you following my posts around? Quit doing that! :x ***DV slaps TheBlazikenMaster...*** [LATE EDIT: 874] ~Mr. Devnull

Actually, I haven't hinted yet. :) ... And I never will. :twisted: ~Mr. Devnull

14,063 At least they apologized. :) ... No thumps for them. :lol: ~Mr. Devnull

WHAT THE........... HUH? :shock: ... Jcfc, for the first time, you make absolutely no sense! :? ~Mr. Devnull

870 Uhh :uhh: ... Blaziken, I don't get the point this time. You're effectively trying to 'compare Apples to Broccoli' in attempting to compare "General P2P" to "Forum Games", which doesn't really work. :( ~Mr. Devnull

Probably someone told Jagex that they shouldn't be doing violence in games. :( ... Great, there goes the one place where we can blow off mental steam. ... ~Mr. Devnull

Well, it seems I have discovered who The Editor is. I can't believe they let it slip. Thank goodness my mind is tighter than Fort Knox for security. So no one is going to cause me to tell, even if they try to PK me in wildi, which they won't get to, or spam my forum inbox. Hmm, I am inclined to think that they told me because they trust me not to tell. Well, they didn't misplace their trust. Guess I can walk out of this thread with a happy look on my face. 8-) ***DV exits the thread, but will check in for laughable bad guesses...*** ~Mr. Devnull

Yeah, one with more than 866 endings! ~Mr. Devnull

Alright, I have read the responses so far, read the article, and seen what has been happening. Heck, as you can see from my sig as of the date of this post (It will probably change again after March 24th, 2007!), I have been affected by it, which makes me pretty angry. Personally, I fully agree with The Editor, and I definitely like the article they wrote. Jagex has set themselves up to get trapped in an avalanche of profit loss from people leaving. They've failed to resolve many problems, and only had more problems creep up on them. Further, I also almost think that Jagex is trying to turn RuneScape into yet another "Stick RPG"... I've been seeing more and more complaints from people with "Pure" accounts, and it annoys me that I end up having to hear this at all! :x ... And even for us who only have "Non-Pure" accounts, we seem to hit early boundaries and limits that just make us want to do [insert violent thing here] to Jagex. Bah, I'm too frustrated to type further about the issues. You can see it in my typing too! Off-topic: Hmm, the writing style matches up with someone else here. Oh great, they've told me who The Editor is at this time. Well, one good thing, at least... I won't tell anyone else, no matter what they try to do to me, including PK me in wildi or spam my PM box... Heck, no one gets the chance to kill me in wildi anyway. :lol: ~Mr. Devnull

864 ... *sigh* -.- ... ~Mr. Devnull

14,072 I wonder how much a percent of the posts here are mine alone... :-k ... ~Mr. Devnull

862 I think it was dead already. :( ~Mr. Devnull

14,075 And I wouldn't know because I don't look there much anymore. ~Mr. Devnull

Maybe a "Bear Fur Pouch" instead of a "Burlap Pouch" then? :-s Just a thought... :-k ~Mr. Devnull

860 Hey, do you know that you just bumped something about 3 months old? I hope Tip.It doesn't kill the thread for that! :( ~Mr. Devnull

14,077 TBM, if you believe in God, and you didn't tell the demon you were selling your soul to be better at bowling, then he shouldn't be able to touch you. Keep a Holy Bible and a Cross nearby anyway. ~Mr. Devnull

Ok, so what do you think needs work? I have no idea. Something just seemed lacking. I still support, though. :) ~Mr. Devnull

I say keep the post count. These days, it helps to remind me of past events, and forces me to strive to keep my good reputation as a "slightly insane, but better than the general opinion" type of good person. Plus, I'm currently fighting with myself to get back to my standards on the issue of whether or not I have given enough good help to people in one day. :) ... ~Mr. Devnull

I'll support this too. Seems like I'm always in need of that blasted chisel! ... Just one thing: Please get the idea fully refined! ~Mr. Devnull

Just one big problem with your idea: Age constraints. How would they control a 13-year-old killing it or not? ~Mr. Devnull

Now I know why I don't follow the instructions to do stuff like this. It is too insane, and also would be breaking "Rule 4: Bug Abuse"... *sigh* -.- ~Mr. Devnull

I guess we are stuck "witch hunting" then? :-s ~Mr. Devnull

I'll support, but I'm dropping a refined idea to be implemented in here... --------------------------------- A maximum of 5 times a RuneScape session, and no closer than 1 hour between each freeze, P-Mods may, at their discretion, long as you're not in combat or in a "pvp area", hit you with a "check display", which would stop your character from being attacked or doing anything until the check is completed properly. In this check, you would be provided with a randomly generated image, in which there was enough "image noise" to defeat any macro program, and only a human could input the text sequence to tell the system they are human. The text sequence would be at least 6 to 8 characters, and would seem like total nonsense that just simply needed to be typed in the input field. ---------------------------------- I think that will be enough to defeat a macroer and not really hinder a normal player. Normal players should be smart enough to use the "report abuse" button to report a bad pmod for breaking the "misuse of customer support" rule anyway! Further, these checks should be enough to break a macro instantly, causing it to lose connection, which will signal Jagex on the spot. ~Mr. Devnull
