  1. Here are the numbers I have noticed:

     

     

     

    Weekend(s) Before update, 8am NZ time: averages 200k players

     

    Weekend after update, 120k people were on.

     

     

     

    Weekend(s) before update, 8pm NZ time: Would average 140k people.

     

    Weekend after update, 60k people were on.

     

     

     

     

     

    This was before Christmas break, though.

     

     

     

    Maybe I'm wrong, but back at school I learned 200k > 120k, and 140k > 60k.

  2. Most of the time when i give my one friend free stuff, or show him where something is, i dont bother switching items between f2p and p2p cause i just want to get on give him help and leave. why should i care what you think about my wearing p2p on f2p.

     

     

     

    and for all the people who think $5 per month is a lot. its $15 per month for WoW.(i dont play WoW its too expensive)

     

     

     

    Its not about those that just wear mem stuff in f2p, its those who deliberately wear member gear then go laugh at/insult the f2p because they have it and the f2p don't.

  3. Ah Ok. Didn't know that, thanks for clarifying. Thought this news was, well, new.

     

     

     

    The legal occurances are new. They have been picketing thier nonsense for many years and purposely have legal ties and know how to keep thier bigotry going, hence the "at last" part. The law finally caught up with them and the common indecency that any regular joe can see has finally been legally challanged.

     

     

     

    OK. As I mentioned before, I agree with the punishment fully for what they have done.

  4. Ah Ok. Didn't know that, thanks for clarifying. Thought this news was, well, new.

     

     

     

    Bad habit of mine lol. I read tons of books, so I read really fast and tend to skip some sentences that I perceive as not being of any relevance to the story as a whole. I jumped to the news item and didn't read the first line lol :?

     

     

     

    Ah well, I'll leave you all to crucify me now.

  5. Yea...but please realise my comments were not relevant to this thread so shouldn't hold the fact against me, as I had no intention of keeping them relevant, as I was arguing a point that I thought was a prevailing attitude over ALL of tip.it, not just this thread.

  6. Ok, well after a day of consideration I come back to apologise for what I have said.

     

     

     

     

     

    Please realise that in no way did I think what they did was right - just the opposite, I'm as shocked as everyone else that they did it. Discrimination of any kind is not OK, but like I said before, nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes. Just because their mistake was planned doesn't mean it wasn't a mistake. It probably just exploded out of control.

     

     

     

    Yesterday...well...yesterday I just kind of snapped, the last straw as they say. I clearly have read too many posts like these and been on tipitchat too much where people just seem to feel the same way as the author of this thread, and not enough pro-religious threads and conversations (havn't found any yet).

     

     

     

    While its not everybody's belief, I think religion should be accepted without having to be discriminated against, and so the amount of it I've experienced on tip.it really surprises me, as from what I hear tip.it is meant to be a great community. I do realise, though, that I shouldn't just base my accusations on my own personal experience - perhaps I just click the wrong threads, and join the chat at the wrong times. I shouldn't assume that the majority of tip.it feels this way just because I havn't been proven otherwise as yet.

     

     

     

    So yeah, I guess I didn't think. I saw the thread title and was unimpressed at what seemed to complete propaganda. I felt as if the author was saying that Christians are doing something wrong by having their belief, and they all deserve this same punishment (and I'm sure you can't disagree that the title is directed towards all Christians, not just this particular church), so, as I now see, I misinterpreted many of the comments.

     

     

     

    I realise I'm probably just going o be criticised more, but at least my conscious is at peace now, so I'll probably try avoid this thread so I don't have to read the coments about me :? . I'm sorry if I offended anybody. I think I'll try start a pro-religious thread, even if I'm not religious, so I can finally experience a more positive attitude towards religion from the tip.it community which I am told does exist.

  7. I directly said "I realise not everybody here hates Christians, but the majority do." Did you miss that?

     

     

     

    Also, I have tried to be careful to say "majority of..." I guess I slipped a few times in my hurriedly written posts.

     

     

     

    It is not one person at all, because this off topic forum is filled with similar threads and posts. Which is why I assume nobody will take up my challenge.

     

     

     

    Anyway, this argument is futile for both of us, I'm sure you will agree. No point in continuing when neither of us seems to understand each others point of view.

  8. Find me one pro-Christianity thread where someone hasn't posted something insulting/offensive/against Christianity and I will take back everything I have said.

     

     

     

    Red herring. This isn't relevant the this thread and the issues of this thread relating to your hypocrisy.

     

     

     

    May not be relevant to this thread, but is relevant to the fact that tip.it has a underlying negative perception of Christians. Your not going to find anything with only pro-Christian comments. Nothing about how a church saves some young orphans and everyone says "Yay those Christiansare doing a good thing!" No, even if Chrstians solved world hunger, restored world peace and stopped global warming, people (including the majority of tip.it) would still persecute them and their beliefs.

  9. You, I assume, amongst many others here are just the pathetic hypocritical Christian haters. I don't feel victimised at all, I'm not Christian, its just I'm sick of how so much of tip.it is against religion for no reason at all. So they make a mistake, why the hell do you have to try outlaw Christianity? So what if they believe homosexuality is wrong. You clearly believe Christianity to be wrong. Just because there is a difference of opinion doesn't mean you have to try and destroy their lives by bankrupting them.

  10. Just a few:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Haha! in your face asshats! =D>

     

     

     

    I laughed at the whole fact that the fine is worth more (or something close) than the defendants net worth. Stupid bastards should've thought about that before their picketing got out of control.

     

     

     

    Their stunts have basically ruined them all for life now if it is true. Nothing like a bit of bankruptcy to destroy their credit ratings, and put them out on the street, with everything they hate =D>

     

     

     

    it's about [bleep] time. those douchebags are lucky that no one close to me in the military has died yet. those idiots show up at a member of my family's funeral, for any reason, and not one of those bastards is going to leave alive. good luck picketing funerals when they're dead.

     

     

     

    free speech my [wagon]. that's the biggest load of bull i've ever heard in my life. they're the ones going to hell, not the soldiers.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    None of these mention hating only the minority of Christians. They're hating them all.

     

     

     

    I realise its not everyone's view here, but it is the majority.

     

     

     

    Also, threads like this are hypocritical. You lynch Christians for imposing their views on others, but thats exactly what you are doing when tell them to abandon their beliefs.

  11. OMG you people are pathetic. Just because some Christians do things wrong you hate them all, act as if its wrong to have a religion. Really, most of YOU should be sued for persecuting Christians, not the otehrway around. Just because you don't agree with someones religion doesn't mean you have to be complete [wagon] to them. They (at least, the majority) aren't to you.

     

     

     

    OMG you are pathetic. Just because one person on this thread espoused that view you act as if it's all of us.

     

     

     

    It's a resounding view on these forums, and particularly on tip.it chat (of the rare times I go on it). There are more Christian-hating threads than regular threads.

     

     

     

    You don't even care about the hypocrisy in your post? It's irrelevant what happens on other topics or forums. You wrongly grouped everyone in this topic into one group while this is exactly what you're complaining about.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Of the first page, I see 2 (perhaps 3...) which are not Christian-hating posts.

    It's a resounding view on these forums, and particularly on tip.it chat (of the rare times I go on it). There are more Christian-hating threads than regular threads. If someone mentions they are Christian here, they get jumped on immediately and subjected to more abuse than I can believe.

  14. I know a better one :)

     

     

     

    Wear magic defence, go south of fally where the halloween event is. Attack the elemental mage that is the same as the spell you are using (Air on air, water on water, etc)

     

     

     

    If you attack with the same elemental spell that they use, they are invulnerable so never die, and have no risk of killing them. If your mage defence is high enough they shouldn't hit you either.

  15. At DK you only get clues from Prime with Air Battlestaves, and from Supreme with iron arrows. Been there millions of times, this works 100%. Not sure about Rex though, don't mage much, but I'm sure it's one item that gives the clue, like the other two.

  16. OMG everyone should stop whining. You know how many supporters there were for this update? Tens of thousands. YOU wanted it, stop complaining.

     

     

     

    Is it just me or do the people or RS just like to complain over nothing?
