You can't blame Suomi for that. Nobody forced them to donate anything. It's called "donating" for a reason. He held a responsibility for claiming all the donations. People donated to him because they wanted him to get 5b xp, and not to give up in the middle of the journey. It's like Donating to Red Cross: The reason for the donation is to make the poor people happy, to give them food etc. But what would you then think when the Red Cross suddenly decides not to help the poor people and quit? I would think that they did a hell of a good job while they worked towards their goal, and that what they achieved not be criticized because they choose not to do it anymore. It's upsetting and really disrespectful that you're actually complaining about this. I have to admit, that the Red Cross example isn't the best one. Your post gave me cancer. This reminds me of when people get more drunk than they should, then order another drink at a bar. They finish half of that drink, and then the bar is closing. They could either throw away that drink or finish it to "justify" the money spent on it, even though finishing the drink would be a stupid decision since it would make them feel worse. In other words: cutting his losses is the right decision if he's no longer having fun playing. And your post gave me cancer too. Who in the world wouldn't drink his beer to the end? [/hide] What's with you, cancer and the red cross? :unsure: Anyway, that's besides the point. Analogies are stupid and will always be blasphemed one way or another. Suomi already pointed out the reasons why he has quit, if you miss that, I'll point it out here: [hide=Post] I am pretty sure that I won't be getting 200M all Skills. Was going to upload video about it earlier but still need to think about it. Pretty sure though. Main reasons: The game isn't anything like it was over 10 years ago when I started. I have no trust in Jagex anymore. I got pretty much everything and even more than I wanted from this game, it was amazing. So many great memories/moments, it was a pleasure reading this thread too long time ago. Of course it's a shame this game ended up this way but nothing I can do about it. Also I don't wanna ruin it for other people, other people deserve a chance too to get 200M all Skills first. This thread and RS was so much more interesting for me when I wasn't maxed yet and people didn't think I was going to be there first. I still log in sometimes to do Farm runs when I feel like it but going to Lapland to skii soon so won't be doing those either. Probably uploading video at some point explaining more reasons but I doubt I am going to change my mind. But honestly it was amazing reading this thread long time ago. Thanks so much to everyone for all the support and everything, I never thought I could make it this far. In my opinion it will be very interesting to see who will make it to 200M all Skills first if it wasn't me. Of course I will still be following RS updates and this thread like I have before. Not going to disappear anywhere like Zarfot and many other people did when they quit. I understand why they did it though. But honestly thank you so much, I still hope to see someone get 200M all Skills someday. Might be hard to understand why I would stop like this when I am so close but just gotta do what feels the best for you.[/hide] Whether anyone agrees or not, it's ultimately his decision for doing so, and he's already justified himself with proper reasons for doing so. You can say "that's like counting to 1b when stopping at 999,999,999 because it's too tiresome" and all sorts of analogies but it's just not the same, mostly from the perspective of the reward, personal gain and many other factors. About the donations, yes, they are what they are - donations. Sure, as muggi already said, he has the obligation to max all stats, but not the responsibility to do so. Again, you can't compare it to any other analogies like the Red Cross, because programs like those actually contribute other parties, and there are legal aspects to the charity. People need to see that if anything, this whole thing was Suomi's personal goal, and that whatever he decides to do in that journey was ultimately up to him, it was his life, his goals, his effort, his journey. People who decided to donate to him, just aided him in the process. Either way, whether he reached the goal or not, wouldn't affect their gameplay at all, they should already know that. It's still impressive how he got so far, and such a big lead on the second place player. His achievement still stands, and his milestones were also unprecedented, so I don't see why people are raging that bad. "wouldn't affect their gameplay at all, they should already know that" LOL. If you've donated cash, then it has hindered your gameplay. You could have used that cash for YOUSELF and PROGRESS your gameplay. E.G Train prayer (which is an expensive ordeal). EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN. If you donate, and Suomi doesn't get 200M all; if you don't donate, and Suomi gets 200M all, both scenarios won't affect your gameplay, do you understand now? :D EDIT: Or what Muggi said.
