There are a couple reasons Jagex prohibits mentioning them on the forums: 1) They know it's a problem. Posting about them is useless spam. 2) They don't want people who are ignorant to become "enlightened" that Jagex doesn't know how to solve the problem. 3) There is a secret conspiracy in which Jagex actually doesn't ban any of the macroers because they receive so much profit from them. I personally believe this. Honestly, at least 10% of the top 200 accounts in fishing have gibberish names with fishing as their only ranked skill.

I dislike the BTS, personally, but I do believe it's a double-edged sword. Most times, Jagex sugarcoats the updates, making it sound better than it turns out to be, leading to widespread discontent. However, it is a reasonable business strategy, as it entices F2P members into wanting membership and it keeps people paying that one extra month. Personally, I like surprises. I do not think the DFS was even mentioned in the BTS, but it turned out to be an awesome update for high levels. Such things shouldn't be mentioned in the BTS, as it's my opinion that if Jagex says nothing, there are no predetermined expectations of the item. Therefore, Jagex will please far more people with whatever they release, as they are not expecting anything spectacular.

I am more concerned about how monsters move diagonally, now. It complicates DKing and especially the Fight Caves.

Lower levels shouldn't be killing high leveled NPCS, especially not with the weakest magic spell possible. I still think they need to make all dragons immune to magic and give them a breath weapon.

Nah, it'd waste too much effort for a marginal benefit. And yes, I agree that Jagex hands out too many whimsical black marks for silly things.

Actually, seeing as dragonhide is the best defense against magic, shouldn't Dragons be immune to spells? What, they aren't? They need to be. That would solve the problems with those stupid wind bolt mages. Oh, and also give them a ranged breath weapon, so that they can kill any ranger who decides he wants to use his maple shortbow to fight them.

Lol, I'd sig that if I had room. :XD:

Yourgone has a point with that. Sure, there is nothing that prohibits closing doors that people are trying to get through or killing the npcs they are thieving, just like there is no law in real life that says you can't walk up to someone's table in a restaurant and spit in his or her drink. Does it mean you should do it? Absolutely not. Killing high leveled npcs is a form of passive aggression and is unfair to high levels. They raised their skills to the point where they can kill those npcs with ease, so they should not be prevented from doing so by someone who has no reason whatsoever for being there. Honestly, even if you have 100k wind strikes, it's a waste of time using them on dragons, as you will splash with about 90% of your casts. It's far better experience to train on something that is a far lower level, such as black knights, so you can't give me that "They are training their skills." bullcrap.

I sometimes type "teh" on accident and don't bother to correct it. Other than that, I usually type with perfect grammar, even up to the point where I use apostrophes in my contractions. However, there is a difference between a mostly grammatically correct sentence with one or two typographical errors and "wat is tat wep? its kool, can i c in trad plz??" If someone talks to me like that, I either act as though I didn't see what he said or I call him a noob and then ignore him. In my opinion, despite that "noob" is overused, someone is a noob if they type like that. Peoples' typing habits are the first thing I use to judge them when I meet them, before levels or anything else. I am often known to be one of the nicest, most sociable high levels people meet, that is if they prove to me that they are not immature and illiterate. Often, one's typing habits reflect his or her maturity.

Here's a list of words that irk the [cabbage] out of me: Plz Dis Dat Wif Wat Wot Kool Halp

Canned answer? As in an automated answer? :evil:

Oh, wow.. Sly Wizard actually made a valid, unbiased rant. I completely agree with this. Perhaps not all NPCs should have a ranged attack, but all dragons definitely should. It's pathetic and beyond irritating trying to get one of the limited blue dragon spawns against a noob who is ranging in green hides or casting air strike. And what's worse is that many autoers have taken to the Blue Dragons in taverly, and regardless of their combat level (they have to double click to attack) they WILL ALWAYS beat you to the dragon. For Pete's sake, give ALL dragons the breath weapon that Metal Dragons have. It would make them as feared as they were in RSC.

We better hold onto our robin hats, they are becoming discontinued! :notalk:

I smell bull****. :-w

Actually, mith bolts are NOT the equivalents of Bolt Racks. They may be as far as damage and price are concerned, but the DPM is still substantially higher with Bolt Racks, as you shoot far faster with an XBOW than with a rune crossbow.

Bump :anxious:

Nice ideas ^.^ I think you should make the new dragons slightly more powerful than steel, though. After all, they drop the hides for the best ranged armor in the game.

I am glad smithing and mining are raising. For a long time, miners and smithers have been the laughing stocks of skillers. It's about time something that made those skills profitable for the time invested came along.

yeah yeah yeah, yeah! and I hate when a clan sweeps in for two games, with 50% mages, and then leaves. ROFL, my clan does that :S

People on the RS forums are "mean" because it is suggested at least 100 times a day. Jagex has stated that the "ground on Gleinor is not suitable for horses" or in other words, they won't be added.

Yes, it's a new scam that has emerged in the past month. You see people spamming that frequently in world 2, only with sharks.

Sometimes, when you drag an item, it will temporarily duplicate it. However, the duplicate is only a ghost, and it disappears within seconds or if you try to use the second item.

Customer Service is, in itself, an oxymoron. I cannot recall ANY instance where there was CS that was pleasing. Most companies hire foreign CS reps with a limited knowledge of English (and also a heavy accent), as they are cheaper. See, what bothers me MOST about Jagex's CS is that it's largely automated. And the automation software they use is not very good. I believe it runs off of keywords: I sent them a message concerning the large number of accounts with over 20m fishing experience, irrational names, and no other ranked skills. I included a list of those names. They sent me back something explaining black marks and how to appeal a ban. If Jagex had horrible CS, but it was actually handled entirely by HUMAN BEINGS, I would not care. However, when I know that the majority of my messages will not ever be read by human eyes, it's very disheartening. The fact that Jagex issues permanent mutes/bans for saying things such as RuneHQ or Tipit further reinforces their obvious reliance on automated CS. I guarantee that any bozo who is somewhat experienced with RS knows what RHQ and TIPIT are. I also guarantee that the workers at Jagex are aware of those fansites. Therefore, the only logical explanation for a permanent ban for saying those sites is that it was processed by a computer. Oh, and it is also blatantly obvious that their CS is HORRIBLE when a friend of mine sends a message filled with explicit swearing as a ban appeal and gets it accepted.

Adventure Quest is a wanna-be Neverwinter Nights.

Why interview Aclaw? He just nolifed PC for several weeks to get that attack experience. I know, because I saw him there frequently when I was training strength.
