  1. There are some routing issues somewhere so RuneScape is not loading for a lot of people while for others it is running fine.

     

    [1:33:52 PM] <~Cruiser> there looks to be an outage

    [1:33:56 PM] <~Cruiser> atleast partial

    [1:34:22 PM] <~Cruiser> http://www.sercrui.com/popgraph

    [1:34:34 PM] <~Cruiser> players online dropped by 50%, even though the front page says 208k are online

    [1:34:54 PM] <thingummywut> pretty much all the worlds appear offline

    [1:35:09 PM] <PeanutButter> .players

    [1:35:19 PM] <PeanutButter> There are currently 131,510 players online on 164 servers 801/server, 40.09% capacity. The online record is 278,994 set on Feb 20 2011.

  3. Not crazy about this idea. Jagex makes it possible to reobtain anything that is necessary ever again even if you dropped it after a quest ie. you can never be stuck because of something you threw out in the past.

     

    Too much work for little gain. Thanks regardless for submitting this!

  4. Hey there,

     

    I've gone ahead and moved this to the Questionnaires forum, a subforum off of General Discussion. Here you are more likely to find users who still play RuneScape and also those interested in participating in surveys and interviews. :)

     

    Let me know if you have any concerns.

  5. Why would anybody want to connect their real life name and pictures (and other personal information) with their RuneScape screenname...? Blows my mind.

     

    Why would you put your personal details on your facebook?

    I would assume most people on facebook lie about themselves and the person behind the account is somebody different.

    A better questions still is why put incriminating evidence about yourself on facebook so law enforcement and potential employers can read about the "real" you.

    I personally don't know since I fail to see the charm of facebook, but I hear about people doing such all the time and really screwing themselves over.

     

    True, it is stupid to have personal information on Facebook in the first place. But the problem is people still do put enough information on their facebook for you to show up at their school, place of work or even house. They put pictures of themselves drunk and on drugs on their facebook, or even as a profile picture. I'd say your assumption is pretty inaccurate - most of the people I see using facebook aren't lying about a single thing on their facebook. And of course that is a scary thing.

     

    For me, I like my online activities to be completely separate from real life and would never participate if I had a facebook. Although it won't surprise me when a large number of people do, which gives Jagex the wrong message.

  6. Removed some irrelevant posts. If you're not responding to the question in the main post, please do not post.

     

    @op: don't mind these people. They flame and flame and flame, and the best thing to do on here is either a) get a group of knowledgable friends and avoid h&a, or b) sift through the flaming rubble to find the answer YOU like...

    Alternatively- ask what you want to ask. The OP clearly does not ask what the most fun familiar to use while mining is (the answer to that would be dreadfowl).

     

    I'm going to agree here. I also think the flamebait you laid out (calling the other posters a basement dweller and what not) was completely unwarranted. The poster asked what the best way to mine was and the users provided the most efficient way to do it. People ARE usually looking for an efficient way to do whatever they want to do. If the poster is not looking for the most efficient way, they can either specify that in the main post that top efficiency isn't necessary for them or even just mention it later on in the topic that they aren't interested in most efficient and if the users have any other options that are not as efficient.

     

    I do not understand your lashing out towards other people that are just trying to help this guy out. If you do not like using Help and Advice, it would be better off without comments telling other people to avoid using it. The section is actually quite helpful and topics will often get a variety of answers, some more efficient than others. I do not see any flaming here except you flaming the other users that have posted.

     

    If you have any other comments in regards to this, please send me a private message directly.

     

    Thank you.

  7. I closed this topic for a little bit so I could read the entire thing and see what was up. The first two pages were a good discussion on the matter while the final page was beginning to deteriorate into religion bashing (completely unrelated), spam and flaming. I will now open this topic to give it a second chance at continuing the good half of the discussion but if it deteriorates again either individual users will be sanctioned or the topic will simply be locked.

     

    I'm now going to open this and move it to Off Topic where it belongs, as this isn't about anything in RuneScape, rather it is a real life news story that happens to mention RuneScape.
