Character Name Clean-up
At the same time, though, there's really no reason to preserve the name of someone who hasn't played in close to a decade... Though the fact that they're so squeamish about listing players' original usernames limits it somewhat.

Yes. Yes you do.

How delightfully rigid.- BTS July 2014
...Tell me I'm not the only one who would like the latter to be possible (if ball-crushingly difficult) for like the most skilled boss fighters in the community, though- Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
Then ALLOW ME TO REGALE YOU WITH THE TIME I QUOTED A POST WITH A DIRTY JOKE IN IT DURING THE GOLDEN DAYS OF /OBT/ or something- It's Super Effective!

That's pretty much standard fare for free MMOs- Future Update Discussions
the real lord of darkness is solomon Villains always dress better than the heroes anyway.- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
Beta leftover, isn't it?- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
Minor correction: it's All class, rather than Hybrid... Which I want to say just means that the defensive side just doesn't work.- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
Was there any reason for removing it?You're basically asking "Was there any reason for removing [insert glitch there]?"It sounds more like they accidentally removed the glitch in the process of nerfing everything else, though.- Things that annoy the HELL out of you.
No you're not, it's overrated.- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
Conspiracy theory of the week: This update was done to make Legacy more appealing, with the ultimate goal of doing away with EoC as a whole- Manga/Anime Discussion
Following up on the Berserk thing... As good as it was, I only lasted halfway through volume 14. Just got to the point where it was too much.- What are your general opinions towards Jagex.
That makes sense. The current death system worked when equipment was cheap enough (even then, rewarding griefers was kind of bad), but nowadays it's basically punishing you for things that are entirely out of your control and will set you back much farther than a set of lost rune or a warspear would. Perfect way for them to standardize a repair system, actually. It's something most of the other big MMOs do with death, I think, but in this case it's a much-needed improvement.- Was it really EoC that ruined RuneScape?
It's mostly because League seems to be in the same position WoW was in eight years ago, as the stupidly popular game that brought a ton of attention to an otherwise niche genre (and unless I'm mistaken, spawned legions of imitators). They seem more accessible without sacrificing that edge that appeals to hardcore players, at any rate. This might have more to do with us older players having a substantial headstart than us being 'used' to it, except now we're the only groups that ever get content. Divination might well be the best example of this sort of thing: the skill itself is awful in just about every way, but they pitched it as an 'old school' skill and put a lot of focus on the high score race during the prerelease period... A race that basically came down to whoever could put in the most uninterrupted time in a two week period at the beginning of the school/university semester. I don't know about any of you, but I basically lost my chance to participate within the first hour. The part that gets me is that we can still get away with calling newer players lazy if they don't go along with it, or sort of smugly imply that we're better than the instant-gratification-crazed mainstream because we play this instead of CoD... but if I'm a new player, why would I want to spend all of my gaming time playing catch-up and probably still never be able to participate in the part of the game that 'matters'?- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
Doubt it, they specifically said only top end armours (nex, pop and the t90s) would have any lp bonuses. Superior void doesn't even come close to be that top end. It probably requires more time to get (and upgrade) than some higher-end sets, and has worse defense stats than Adamant.- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
This is the point where I have to ask if they were even trying. It's not a joke update, is it?- 01-Jul-2014 - Pest Control - Improved Rewards
1200 points to bring void up to T52 all... That sounds like it's nowhere near worth doing.- Server disruptions
...Please tell me you're not denying that they do get preferential treatment, because there's kind of a mountain of evidence toward that fact. Nor can I really blame him, since... y'know, when streamers get their items returned with a smile while everyone else gets the standard "we don't return items" response is quite possibly worse than EA's customer support.- Was it really EoC that ruined RuneScape?
I thought that too, until I started playing Marvel Heroes this past week :D MOBA? I get the feeling that those are pretty much responsible for killing MMORPGs as a genre by virtue of having all of the MMO medium's strengths while being a game instead of a job - Character Name Clean-up
