  1. I'd briefly read the first page of this topic but hadn't seen the ad or a link to it. Just watched it from the FB link on the first post... A bit stunned at just how shitty that was... Was that all the airtime they could buy, or did they figure people watching those channels were just amused by simple things? Seriously, they didn't even show the troll attacking him before Raptor deflects it did they? There's a certain point A to B that they aren't even following. Honestly, the quality of the cinematic trailer those segments were taken from is decent, and the whole "WTF just happened" might have enticed me to at least check it out if I saw the commercial several times and had never heard of RS. It was really rather pompous for them to deem it "The world's greatest adventure" though, after showing so little...

     

    I'm not really involved with marketing, but I'm sure when you spend the money on an ad you're going to try encourage people as much as you can. "The world's greatest adventure", untrue as it may be is probably the right thing to say.

  2. I got nothing on my daily spins, but I had two tickets and a double ticket in my inventory. Got Curled horns on the first spin with them. My bank's full so I'm unable to claim them as I don't want to leave RuneSpan!

  3. Ketchup, I pasted an image on the previous page that you should look at. If you compare that with every area now, you'll see a massive difference. I was only finding one node every few islands, and it was generally a lower one, after the hotfix.

     

    EDIT: Got it for you:

  4. It seems to me nodes can't despawn; they either get used or get spawned over (one or twice had a blood pool turn into a soul on me) so it is natural for the low end ones epsecially to accumulate.

    Spawn rate also seems to be tied to either world population and/or population in-game. As it has gotten busier nodes are spawning more.

  5. It'll just be a mini-GE in both Catherby and Ardy, Jagex have said a few times they'd like more than one Grand Exchange access point.

     

    Quoting this now because you always say what the update will be and, as usual, are wrong.

     

     

    How 'bout those mini Grand Exchanges then...

    I'll say good job when the update comes, if you're right.

     

    On Topic: I don't like the idea of a count down either.

  7. It did say on the Maintenance thread that things may be off in-game, still. They also said for people not to have valuable items on them, just to be safe. Surprised they didn't have that on the main page news post. I'm too lazy to get a QFC for you, but it's on the Tech Support forum.

  8. Same CEO... same face for the company.

     

    Yes, and back then the direction of the company was different. Things change, Mark's still the CEO but the people above him making the big decisions have decided to move to micro-transactions. Things said in the past no longer apply.

     

    The past being what happened...well, how long ago was the release of the Ornate Katana redeemable? The point he's trying to make is that they were holding this policy fast until this happened like a sock-in-the-face, with no preamble or even an attempt to slowly introduce it. And while they've shed the first part of the "we're never doing microtransactions or allowing you to buy an advantage", they're still holding onto the last part of that when it's clearly not true. Can that be easily fixed? Yeah. But for PR and company policy to get on the same page, while doing bunny-hops over the gaping potholes of the other existing issues within the company, it will take months if we're lucky - or we'll get no clarification and just hamfisted transitions as we've already tasted today.

     

    I understand his point, but it's pretty irrelevant at this time. If policy was to be changed here by the Admins, regarding botting and it was no longer considered to be against the rules, just here (Not the best argument, but I'll continue), then any statements you made in the past on the subject no longer apply... Regardless of how anti-bots you may have been. I don't know if you get what I'm talking about, but yeah.

     

    I'm not backing up what they've done, or trying to protect them, but bringing something from the past to this discussion is pointless.

  9. From what I gather, there's only security issues if you clicked to save your credit card details the last time you input them. When I did it, there was no option for that. It asked me to resubmit all of my details. I recommend you guys go in and change your settings, too. Foolish of Jagex to not immediately request all details to be resubmitted for this. <_<

  10. What's your 9 year old doing playing RuneScape?

    Left & Right click button game, is so hard...

     

    so so hard.

     

    true story.

     

    Did I say anything about the difficulty level? You've said your 9 year old is now addicted? (Not sure if serious...). The game's 13+, not because of the "Difficulty rating", but because of the content and the communication with strangers. But hey, I'm not going to question your parenting. :thumbup:

     

    Off-topic, yada yada.
