Here's a small article about... How Jagex 'Nerfed' Runescape. Runescape used to be a great and fun game to hang out with your friends. You could do many various things, show them their way into Varrock, Falador, Camelot, all of those great places. You could give them 20k to start off and show them the way to millions. You could teach them the way of a PKer and learn how to kill others across the Wilderness. You could give them a (What is now dead) Merchanting Guide to show them the ways of a merchanter. What can you do now? Grind. There is nothing on RS now, other than grinding. You can't solo PK, Stake, Merchant, or Hunt Monsters. You can't help others achieve fame with famous PK videos. You can't show off your great staking awards. You can't show your monster drops to friends without feeling sorrow for how you can only give them 3k every 15 minutes. All you have left to work on is grinding your skills, and monster hunting solo without the fun of a friend next to you to enjoy your wealthy drops. Jagex wanted to fix a flat, and broke the car.
