What does that have to do with the topic of the thread? If you read it, the OP asks why such a rule is in the game. If you read it and still posted this, you are just a forum [bleep] going for +1s. If you aren't going to contribute just don't post.Who doesn't drop trade anyway? :-s -
But it isn't the rich players fault the poor player is bad at the game. If you are poor, you shouldn't cwars/pk until you have better stuff, it is your own fault for going unprepared. The advantage the rich player had was that the other person is bad at the game, and you should always have an advantage over someone that is bad at the game.That rule is there for simple balance purpose.Imagine an average level 90 gets a party hat from a death drop, and sells it to get a fury, whip (mind you, he probably had that one already), dragon boots, barrow melee armor, maybe the supplies for a fire cape, etc...
Now he goes into cwar and find an average level 90, with full rune, whip or d scim, rune boots, and glory etc...
Now, think who the winner of the fight will be, I put my money on the rich level 90, personally. Did he win because of insane skills? Nope, just because he got very easy money off the ground... It's luck, so nothing can be done against it, but when you drop trade, you go against the normal order of things.
There is only difference between getting it in luck as you described or drop trading is that you don't have to rely on luck to get rich. If it isn't unfair for the guy that found a party hat, it isn't unfair for a drop trader. The end result is the same, you get a lot of money for no work. Actually, at least the drop trader had to work for the money on his main instead of getting lucky.
Why would it be an advantage to get 100mil on my lvl 3 from drop trading as opposed to getting 100mil from merchanting on that lvl 3? The end result is the exact same, so the advantage can't be different. The end result is the only way you could possibly have an advantage, it doesn't matter how you get there. So what if I didn't work for it on the lvl 3, that is no advantage at all, all it did was stop me from needing to repeat what I just did even more.
I agree with whoever said that Jagex has that rule just so people play longer and pay more, not because of fairness.
2 pkers are fighting with the exact same equipment and stats. One worked for 100mil, the other got 100mil from a drop trade. Who has the advantage in that fight?
Its called a lvl 3 throwaway account....If people didn't suffer consequences for their bans, i.e. losing their items, how would the Runescape community react? Not very maturely, no doubt. In fact, to an extreme it could bring in-game chaos, with players breaking rules with no fear of losing any item of value, possibly resulting in the destroying ofany reputation Runescape still has left. Yah, don't think Jagex wants that. -

I believe in the golden rule. They scammed you so they must like being scammed so it is acceptable.

In my school if someone punches you and you don't even do anything back, it is considered fighting and you get punished too, sometimes less than the other person but most often the same.

No, lets laugh at the lack of intelligence you have.And PS, instead of turning this into a "Does God exist or not?" debate, let's point our figers at laugh at the apparent lack of intelligence this dude has.From the bottom of the quote "Chambers filed the suit to make a point that the state constitution allows lawsuits to be filed for any reason, according to WOWT."
:P No offence to you, I just couldn't pass it up.

If Jagex updated f2p, as a f2p player would you get members?
If no: Then why should Jagex update f2p? They aren't getting closer to making you a member.
If yes: Why didn't you just get members anyway? You get members updates, plus that f2p update they did to make you join members.

Declining? Maturity has been gone for awhile, at least in the majority of people I see.

I think total level is more important. It shows that you have done all aspects of the game, and not just grind the easy skills to 200mil xp.

I'd buy the legs, I can afford it so why not. If I ever need money I can just sell them.

I have it on friends because I only want to talk to those people: my friends. Just because I answered a question for you or did some small favor doesn't mean I am your friend. So many people that I say 1 sentence to add me to friends.

2 different responses
As a player- go around and ban bots for fun, ban scammers for fun, make begging against the rules, ban beggars for fun, no helm/cape requirement in cwars, make mage/range as strong as melee, make a lot more runes with runecrafting, more arrowheads per bar, cheaper runes and arrows from the shop (last 2 are to make mage and range more affordable compared to melee), make the word filter optional, and many other things.
As a buisinessman- Try to keep the majority happy so I can make as much money as possible. Pretty much do what jagex does now.

I'd talk to my friends on some other chat program. It doesn't have to be ingame.

Ancient magic was cool. And cook-x was good, I was fishing/cookign when that came out.

And so what if f2p is in the majority? They are the majority that aren't paying for the game. Its not stupidity, it is smart to disadvantage f2p, so that they might want to become members.I'm amazed at the shere stupidity of Jagex's thinking on this matter. So only members can vote about game content? LOL. Have they noticed that F2P takes up the vast majority of the Runescape population? :roll: -

I buy runes from them in world 2. No one else sells them, not going to get them myself so I have to buy from them. I buy yews from them too because they sell cheaper than players.

I was selling a d axe, the guy puts up 2.7 like I ask. He declines and says 'oops'. So he trades me again and puts 6.5mil. I thought right away it was a scam so I was watching. I waited for him to accept first both times and he did. I'm still wondering what he did wrong to give me 6.5mil.

No skill is harder than others. Some just take more time and dedication, but that doesn't make them hard to do. Yeah it takes a lot more time to get 99 mining as apposed to 99 cooking, but is it really that hard to click an ore? And unless you can get a 99 in a couple days, it isn't easy. It still takes a lot of dedication to get any 99.

Why does no one check the first screen properly?

Rares for everyone! I would love to see rares die and the high end economy crash onto all the lower economy. The lower economy (ore, logs, etc) will recover, but the rare economy will never go high again if they do this every christmas.
