Why are they a cashcow? BECAUSE THEY ARE A COMPANY. And what the hell is your problem. So you like scammers and that kind of stuff? Leads me to believe you were one too. Because everyone enjoys getting ripped off and screwed. So what if it's sterile, it's a game that was being used to make real world profit, that was full of people who would screw others over. Yeah, I much prefer that to today.

Exactly. =D>

I'm currently reading "The Ninja" By Eric Van Lustbader. It's pretty good so far. It was made in the 80's and you don't need to look at the copyright date to tell. Everytime I read some of it I feel like I am in that decade. Pretty good read. Can't suggest it till I finish it though.

^^^There are certain places where it is alright. Video chatting, those dating websites advertised on the television. Those are fine, but an internet game? There's a line drawn there. If you feel it's alright (which obviously I don't) then whatever. I just don't think dating over an internet game is right. Making friends is fine, good friends is fine. But then wanting to make out with them and both of you following each other so you run into each other and then typing kissing sounds and sounds like that, that's stupid. I think that if you don't know the person, don't date them. You can be friends, but dating like that is stupid.

Exactly, PvP Worlds are pretty good, Bounty Hunter is fun... But because you bring up a point I am sure Smurf will tell you not to post here anymore.

^ I was patient with him throughout this thread. My patience has ran out. He is illogical. He is F2P - he is happy for every scrap of updates thrown to him and for him RS is perfection. My rant deals with the members portion of the game - he is welcome to post a thread on how he thinks F2P has improved His posts do not address my points - like you he was hostile, flaming and unhelpful when he can post a coherent post and when he learns to actually READ what i've posted instead of reading one line, taking it out of context and disagreeing with it then yes he will be welcome to post on my thread kthxbai I know how hostile I was...I am also flaming because telling people they can't post on a thread makes you look insecure with the fact that someone is flaming you. And that makes you look weak.

What the [bleep] game are you playing Smurf? I have played continually over the past 4 years and I have only encountered dating people maybe four times. That's it. I have never in the past year met anyone who is dating with another at a bank.

First of all the dudes name is quelmotz...learn to spell his name. Secondly, why don't you practise self restraint. This is the rants forum, and it is open discussion. If people have a different opinion than you, and you have to tell them to get off your threads, you are made out to be an idiot who can't take the heat. And how does posting on a thread need self restraint. I know, damn you Quelmotz for posting on a thread! How could you do that, the integrity of this site has broken! Apparently you weren't around a couple years ago when everything was worse than it is now? Negativity created this thread, and your being negative toward Quelmotz... First of all, learn how to put together a sentence. Secondly, there have been games on the market for as long as Runescape has been around (a little game called World of Warcraft?). How is this year any different? There is always a steady stream of games coming out for computers and consoles, but that apparently hasn't stopped people from Runescape. And if you rarely play, what the hell do you care what's going on to the game? Every year someone complains that Jagex updates are downgrades. What's special about this year? First of all you used "essentially" two times in a sentence. Next, the rest is there so that people can easily get their run back. Very little reason to train in agility? As you stated, their are the shortcuts. Plus you can get longer run time. I don't know what your talking about. But you haven't posted specifically how it killed the skill. It didn't do anything but help the skill. It shouldn't matter to you though since you play rarely. It didn't kill the skill, it just made it easier to get your run back. So that you run longer, so that you can get past all the shortcuts, so that when you are in the elven woods place you don't have to worry about all the traps everywhere. Oh god, the economy! It's always the ruining of the economy! The economy is fine! It is going, people can make money, no ones been laid off, and I don't see what it matters. How's that ironic? I don't see why it matters if it is in Beta version. It still works. It's probably because it regularly needs updated. I never used a most valuable items list... Yup, that's Jagex logical plan. They plan to kill off the community in their game! That way no one will play runescape and everyone will be mad! HAHAHA! :twisted: That devious corporation! Said the same thing twice...as I said, I never used the list. I never thought it was worthwhile. I'm sorry, but the game is getting dumbed down specifically because Jagex knows that the original version of RS2 was messy. Autoers, scammers. Remember your first time playing? You were thrown into Lumbridge with absolutely no idea what to do. Now new players can easily learn how the game works. There are more and more new players coming in, and Jagex is catering to that crowd, and also the crowd that plays the game because they enjoy it. Why nitpick every bloody thing about the game. If you don't enjoy it, simply leave. You say you play rarely, then what does this matter. So what if you can create a new account and it will be much easier to play than before? Deal with it! Deal with the fact that you had to play through the game and work harder than the new people playing. What the hell does it matter anymore. Play your original character, do whatever you do with him, and deal with the fact that you had to play through the game harder than the noobies. All veterans are probably kind of pissed, some may not be. I personally don't really care. Because of how much more help there is, the noobs are bothering me, they aren't asking for free stuff as much. And what does agility matter? You don't have instant access to agility anymore, the rest is just there so that you can easily regain your running stamina. You can't run as long as a person with 99 agility, and you can't get past traps and shortcuts. As I say with everyone else who complains that Jagex is ruining the game, if it's so bad that you have to complain that much, then either A.) Leave B.) Live with it C.) Keep complaining and see how far that gets you :roll:

Please leave this forum immediately. You write on a rants forum and then complain because someone has a different opinion than you. Screw off, if you can't take the heat get out of the rants forum. Quelmotz, please continue to enlighten this idiot.

You make FRIENDS but you don't make BOYFRIENDS/GIRLFRIENDS. Canadiansmurf, first of all, he can't ignore the negativity because it is true. Runescape dating is hanging out with someone you would want to date in real life due to personality and stuff...What if the chick in the game is a guy in real life? Why do you think Runescape is a good place to search for someone to date? Get a life! Find a real girlfriend. Runescape is not intended for you to get relationships, and Runescape dating is stupid specifically because you don't know who your dating. What the [bleep] are you smoking? Will anyone whos dated on Runescape please raise their hands? I have never dated on Runescape because it is a GAME. That sentence right there is the failure of the week. And to add to the failure: If it's so normal, than why aren't you doing it? You fight that dating is alright in Runescape, then you say it's normal, then you say you've never done it, then you say RS is for strong friendships. Make up your bloody mind. You have written the most fail in one post that I have seen since an EatRuneArrow rant.

Goonstalf?

Good win Lethality! :thumbsup:

Oh horay! Time to read the original YuGiOh manga, one of the most brutal things ever that incidentally was turned into a kids cartoon...Yugi was a dirtbag in the originals. He killed like, everyone.

I don't expect accuracy, but I expect that with a comic book movie not ruin characters. Source material has always been used quite well in comic book movies, but I felt that making Deadpool a kid like that was stupid.

Your all noobs! And I am a noob too! We might as well quit collectively callling our race humans, and instead call our race the Noobs. Everyones a Noob, and if you don't like it, then what the hell are you doing on the internet?

Lucky we have what we have? No. Jagex knows the importance of F2P to the survival of the game, and thus we get OCCASIONAL updates. Are we spoiled? That depends on your point of view. From where you sit, we are spoiled because we get updates now and then. From our view, and many P2P's views, we get what we need, with an occasional bonus. Of course, there are those who think we should get EVERYTHING, but they should never be taken seriously. Getting the occasional update does not bother me in the least, but I feel that people complaining that F2P needs more bankspace, needs more quests, needs more monsters all need to accept the fact that they are not paying and are not going to get a full experience. They get enough content for hours upon hours upon hours of play, why the hell do they think Jagex will just give them a lot more than they deserve? They don't pay, they don't get everything. If it concerns people who don't want to pay 5 bucks a month that they don't get everything, then perhaps they should pay the cheap monthly fee for thousands of hours of more content. I'm Free to Play, but I accept the fact that if your going to get a ton of content, more space in your bank, and all that stuff you need to pay. I never have understood why F2P people need so much bankspace. Clean out your banks of crap, destroy all holiday items you don't need at the moment, then you have room. IF you want the item back, go to Diango. Simple. That's what I've done the past couple years.

The OP scares me. At first I was thinking this was a thread that was going to state the stupidity of the idiots in Lumbridge who get girlfriends and boyfriends and then marry and give each other rings. Then I read the first post and realized that I was reading the words of a horny idiot. First of all, your not internet dating. Your merely dating another runescape players character. You are not dating the person playing it. I would probably say the exact same thing those people flaming you did specifically because runescape is not a dating sim, and you don't have any idea who the hell is playing the character your dating. It could be a fat thirty year old who lives in his moms basement. That turn you on? Your happy having a fictional girlfriend over Runescape. I could say something like "If that makes you happy, then you might want to go to therapy" or "Get your hand out of your pants and back onto the mouse". Why can't we flame the moron who enjoys being a boyfriend to a pixelated character you don't know? Might want to have checked out what this forum is like before posting something stupid like this. You are not dating, you don't have a girlfriend. I think you are a nut. The only way you can say you have a girlfriend is if you know her and you date her. You don't know him/her so how can you say she/he is your girlfriend? Who can say he/she is not waiting for the right moment to scam you and/or do something else to your account. I only consider dating as seeing the person you are dating face to face and dating over a game like Runescape is stupid. If you ever do a web chat or something with her, and know she is a chick and not a fat guy who just enjoys making kids like you think you have a GF, then you can claim her as a GF. But until then, this thread is stupid, and easily proves that the people who date over the game have no idea what is going on and don't understand that they could be putting their character at risk and dating makes them look stupid. STORY: My dad plays runescape too, and one time he was approached by some chick who was named Rose94 or something. She asked him to be her BF. My dad asked "Is 94 the date you were born." "Yeah" she replied. "I have a son your age." My dad said, referring to me. "Eww." The girl ran off. Thus, another idiotic story that proves that internet games are not the place to date. There are other places to look for partners on the internet that do not involve killing dragons.

THE 6:02 NEWS Hello and welcome to the 6:02 News. After two years we have returned today to give you the latest updates on everything you want to know, and everything you don't. Tonight's episode we interview a man who has not been in the spotlight since the acclaimed documentary, Inside the Noob Police: Why They Are a Pointless Organization of Idiots. His name is a Mr... My name is Blue Jay. I like donuts. Very good sir. Now what have you done for the land of Gielnor over the past couple years. Rid them of the wild, so now noobs cannot scam. Also we defeated the Bald Empire. That was the one with all the wood cutting axes and bald people. Yes. That's about all I've done. Ever since I have sat on a couch with my pet Blue Jay and watched Oprah and ate Doritos. But there is a crisis you want to discuss? There is. Right now the Noob Police are cracking down on the greatest threat yet. And what is that? People who...aren't noobs! RATCHET573 PRESENTS IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE NOOB POLICE AND ARCHIMAGE RETURN TO WHAT ONCE WAS... =========== Chapter 1: Return =========== Two years ago I worked on a documentary that many will remember as a classic, but I remember as a painful experience. I had sat down with Blue Jay and tried to convince him to let me join the Noob Police specifically to make the documentary. I ended up beating up people from the History Channel, I ended up learning all the tricks of a Noob Policeman, and I learned how big of idiots they are. But the King has found there to be no reason for a Noob Police anymore after they liberated the world of the Bald Empire and eradicated the wild of all evil. Though nobody knows how a bunch of losers like the Noob Police were able to do this, one thing is for certain: They saved us from our greatest threat. Though we would not accept it at the time that the documentary was being broadcasted via Archimages Magic Orb®, we now must accept that they were imperative to our survival as a species, and our survival as a land. If the Bald Empire had grown anymore the lands would have been so overrun, that we would never be able to get around. We would have no room for anything. They would take all the jobs from the lumberjacks, they would take all the jobs from the farmers, and they would continue to grow due to their amazingly fast birthrate. The King did not see the point of the Noob Police after the war, and decided that it would be a good time for them to either disband, or become a regular police force. The public was outraged, now the amazingly popular reality show Noob Police Crackdown would be off the air. The BBC channel was also outraged that they would have to stop airing their most watched show, Comedic Times As a Police Officer. Blue Jay, the leader of the force, decided that it would be a good time to become a real police force. He would be payed more than he ever did as a Noob Policeman, and he could finally kill things that were not bald, but instead things with hair. And, as Archimage Productions always seems to do with me, they kicked me out and told me to come back with a documentary on a month as a policeman under the direction of Blue Jay. I knew I was screwed the moment I walked up the cobblestone path, up to the rectangular building that served as HQ. As with my last documentary, I was told to sit in a quiet waiting room. The newest copy of Runesweek was my only reading material, and after finishing the back page that told the history of the modern leather boot, I was motioned into a hallway by the receptionist. The hallway walls were covered in posters of half naked women and palm trees, a combination I dared not to ask about. I ended up being sat in a large, carpeted room with sofas strewn about. Three people sat in them, holding donuts and watching the orb set in the center of the room. One I recognized as Snake, a man with no conscience, much less any remorse. The other two I didn't know at all. Snake stared at me for a long time, and I swear to the gods that his hands were stained with blood. I didn't want to mess with that crazy bastard. Snake broke eye contact with the man. A camera guy was not following him this time. Instead, the man had his own camera orb that was trailing behind him. Snake got up from the leather sofa and walked over to the man. "You've got balls showing up here again after all the crap you caused last time." He whispered. "I made you guys what you are now. I was the one who showed everyone your importance." "While making everyone laugh at us like we were a police force of clowns or something. The History Channel went nuts when they learned of an assault on their people, inside a bloody prison of all things." Snake was about to strike the man when a door opened at the front of the room. A man strode in, his eyes bright, his smile only bright because of how yellow his teeth were. He wore a blue overcoat that trailed him on the floor. Everyone fell to their knees, even Snake. The reporter decided it was not the best idea to piss anyone off. He did the same as everyone else. "Please stand. Please." The reporter recognized the voice. He stood. "Blue Jay? Lay off this stupidity! Why the hell are we bowing to him?" The reporter was laughing. "Who would bow to this idiot." Everyone in the room gasped. "You would dare speak to his royal highness like that?" Asked Snake. Everyone then stood and laughed. Snake even laughed. Blue Jay threw the overcoat to the side and laughed. "Well, I guess I can't be a King without the press following me around. Come on in little guy, let's see what you...Oh my god...I remember you!" "Hi." The reporter was smiling. "Get in here. I have got a bone to pick with you." Snake whispered in the reporters ear. "He's either really turned on by you, or your about to feel the wrath of our boss." TO BE CONTINUED IN CHAPTER 2: NEW WEAPONS, AND A NEW ENEMY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because I am sure Archimage would like to do news segments, I am allowing him freedoms to the 6:02 news. Do whatever you want with it if you want. I feel I should quickly write a where are they now, just so you know: Blue Jay: Head of the King's Police Force Snake: Deputy of the King's Police Force Noob: Died during the destruction of the Bald Empire. Archimage: Head of the entertainment industry of Gielnor That should answer some things for now. This is mostly my celebration of two years on the VL, and I always did want to do another Noob Police thing. I think the VL needs Blue Jay back since he left us, and here he is. Don't tell him I made him gay though, he'll get pissed like most people hiding something do. Any bios will be used, and once again this is a community kind of thing so a lot of stuff will be used that you give to me. Characters and of course news segments. Archimage though, if he reads this, does get creative freedom of the 6:02 news. I feel that he is the only choice for ever doing those. Please comment, and return for the further adventures of the police...and don't think there won't be a convoluted and twisted story to this, because what fun is stuff set in the S+N world without that kind of story telling?

I was stupid enough to watch the Ben 10 live action movie (That they are making a sequel too :? ) and I have to say that when it comes to Cartoon Network, they have no talent in doing live action stuff. I'm watching Brain Rush at the moment. I don't understand why a roller coaster would screw you up during questions (I could do it simply, I have been on enough roller coasters that it doesn't bother me). All the questions are easy too. Hell, I want some money. I gotta find out where I can do that show.

Lol, that was an awesome one.

I know that it was origins, but any Deadpool fan knows he had cancer. And he was crazy, psychotic. As a kid he never was a superhero, he just decided to do so after they let him out of the looney bin mostly because he was crazy. The movie did not represent the character as well as it could have. That's why they are making a Deadpool movie, because everyone was pissed that they screwed up the character in the movie.

http://www.yugiohcardmaker.net/ Just a fun way to create your own Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I mean, you can make whatever kind you want. Here's my first one: Post your own.

July 4, 1776 the Declaration of Independence is signed. July 4, 2009, everyones too drunk to care. I ended up going to see the cities firework display(I still don't understand why we do fireworks, what do they represent, that we like exploding sparkly things? That in a dazzling explosion of sparkles we defeated the Brits and declared independence?). We took a bus because it's just so much easier than getting caught in the traffic of the town. Ends up we end up on the bus with the drunk guys in the back. They were hilarious. "Here, Here, Here, Give Me More Beer You Queer." I guess fourth of July is just another excuse to be drunk. Then again, in America any holiday is an excuse to get drunk.

I'm trying to understand why tonight they are playing the episodes of Bleach they played last week. I WANT NEW ONES!
