(This is about 3rd article) I understand how annoying it is when players do nothing but beat other players down, when no one stops to help anyone else, like new players, out a bit with the game. I heard about runescape from a friend, and started playing about 4 months after that. I've had my account for about 3 years, and about 2 years ago the players really changed towards immaturity and pures. By no means does this mean all pures are bad, but the majority of pures beat down other players with lower levels than them, and can usually find some way to insult you. I myself have a few pures, none with 90-99s yet though, but I at least try not to insult other players. Anyways, as i was saying, about 2 years ago the players turned away from helping each other, you could find no-one waiting at Lumbridge to help out new players, and the game was suddenly about pures and money instead of skills and fun. I leave for a couple months and bots have taken over rs... not like bots weren't a problem before, but now everyone seemed so mad about it instead of just letting it be and getting on with their lives. It was fun to kill the average green dragon autoer, and taking a mod down to a yew tree in an f2p world was always a good laugh, but RS just wasn't the same anymore... Then Jagex kills merchanting and pking, and all hell broke loose. since then no one has been the same, and the average player isn't as nice as before either. Most RS players now think its all about money, but we're not paying for memberships to make money on a game now are we? At the moment i am in a clan and the leader has left for a couple months due to personal problems, and the clan is now falling apart. The co-leaders dont care, and I really dont want the leader to come back to 5 people as a clan. It was a nice read overall, something to do while cooking ^^
