Has there been any word on the situation? Here's my problem with this: If Jagex knows for a fact that he lost his money due to their poor quality assurance and they aren't willing to compensate him on principal that they just don't do that; that is by far the poorest customer service I've ever heard of. They could replace it and tell him to keep on the low or they'd take it back, simple as that. Of course we'd never know, but that's the right thing to do IMO. How they can just let that slide and say "Sorry dude, sucks for you" is completely beyond me, especially when the player looks like a veteran from his stats.

Myweponsg00d - We shouldn't be afraid of new content, but that's just where we're at I guess.... I feel for the guy who lost his stuff, it could have happened to any of us. I'm not blaming him at all, I think Jagex is 100% in the wrong, but I think this goes as a lesson for all of us to not carry things we care about around or even check out new content within hours of release

Not calling him an idiot, but I fail to see the logic or need to bring 350,000,000 GP to a brand new minigame in light of how many major bugs come with just about every update these days. It's Jagex's problem by every viewpoint possible, but players need to be more careful too. It may be a safe minigame in itself, but anyone checking out a new update needs to be cautious.

I really don't like this update. Calling a familiar in a high risk situation like tormented demons is SUCH a pain now..

I'd buy it if it were a reasonable price. Extra security is always a good thing. Bank space would be cool but I'd be happy with just the security feature.

[hide=] First of all, this was a new mini-game that was JUST released. How was he supposed to know that he wouldn't need money? Maybe someone just offered to buy his Blue Phat and he hadn't banked the cash yet? You don't know, so you can't make claims as to how necessary it was that he had the money on him at the time. You are simply ignorant, and you are trying to argue with your opinion which is logically invalid. Second, who are you to decide when players are and are not allowed to carry cash around? It's every player's decision as to when and where they take their money. The bottom line here is that there was NO KNOWN risk involved. There is no PvP or PvM combat involved and no other way to lose money in a safe area. I'm sure that Exile wouldn't walk around with 350M on a PvP world. Why? Because there is a KNOWN risk. He lost the money during the TUTORIAL, where he was learning about the new minigame. This is not the player's fault. This was simply just bad programming. But what should we expect from JaGeX? [/hide] All I was saying is that with the given information, he had ABSOLUTELY NO LOGICAL REASON to be carrying that much cash in a minigame requiring no gold. If we're going to talk logic, just about every single update for the past few months has had major bugs, what's logical in the slightest about taking your cash to a brand new place with (probably) unseen bugs? It should have been worry free, but updates are known for bugs, come on. Sure, he could have been buying a phat or whatever, and I'm not at all saying that players can or cannot carry cash. I'm just saying 1) given the information he provided in his post, 2) the number of insane and massive bugs that come hidden with updates; carrying 350,000,000 GP to the brand new update was not a smart move. Now, what should Jagex do? If they're certain that he lost it, I really believe they should return it. It's their fault. If you give an inch, they go a mile though. What would be best IMO is if they replaced it in his bank, and sent a PM apologising, but warning if word got out concerning the replacement that they would take the GP back.

Did they change the "W" back? It looks like "Velcome to Runescape"where computer monitor watches you

350M is a lot of cash regardless of how much he has total, and again, it was unneeded at the time he lost it. If Bill Gates carried 1/4 of his money into a dark alley and was robbed, I'm sure he would be pretty upset. Either way, the player shouldn't of had his cash on him, that's stupid and unneeded. Jagex should have never let a bug like that happen, but again if the player hadn't had his cash unnecessarily on him it wouldn't have happened -.- The question I ask: How could the player have prevented this?

The new text bothers me so much, I hope they change it soon

Going to check out an update in the opening day has always been one of my favorite things to do, but these days I'm honestly scared for the safety of my account if I do. They need to do more QUALITY bug testing :|

Yep, you hit the nail on the head :thumbup:

The 0 and 8 look too similar when putting in your bank PIN. I've had to redo it a lot :wall:

It looks too futuristic for a fantasy game set in ~medieval times is what I think he meant. And I agree, I can't stand it.

New tab artwork is terrible, and the summoning tab needs to be put back in. It's too hard to use right click for everything a familiar can do :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown: New font is the worst I've ever seen it :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :thumbdown: The only thing I like from the changes would be the new 'right click'. Very sleek and game fitting (unlike the text!!) :thumbup: :thumbup:

Am I the only one that can't stand the interface update? It looked so much better before, and the text is too thin and weird looking...The new right click tab looks good though. Aside from that - Played a few rounds, it was fun but I'm going back to slayer :thumbup:

This is one of those "if you squint really hard maybe you can see the logic in this" moments, but the words "low key" struck me as being a possibility for the new dwarf quest. It's a stretch, but dwarfs are pretty short (low), right? :twss:

Last Twitter post regarding this week's update: Rumored to be Mobolising Armies, Music Achievement cape (due to the "low key") but really, who knows? We'll have to wait until tomorrow.

For the record, I thought it was funny. Even looked around the ge :oops:

When he puts it in every other word (and it doesn't even show up as the actual word) he sounds like something that crawled out of drunken trailer trash hell.

It's more annoying than anything to see the constant "[bleep]" in your posts. You certainly don't come off as superior or cool, or whatever imperialistic attitude you're trying to take. It makes you look more idiotic than anyone in this thread, learn new words please?

Those pics aren't enough proof, if you had pictures of actually binding it, or actually going into the area it would be believable. i find this related proof sailing will not be a new skill, they are planning to upgrade summon ill get to the fake ghost pics later, i just dredged this up since i saw it in pics folder lmao Lmao good one =D>

After 5 years it's lost it's adventurous feeling for me, but I still love the game and do get to explore when there's new content, ect. The same? No Still a great game? Yes :D

You defend it like it's good for the game :? I don't want to get in an argument or anything over this, MMG said "we are planning to nuke it (the 26k trick)" anyhow, so I guess it doesn't really matter to debate over it anyways

And you honestly think that's good for the game? It doesn't change the fact that a player can literally create millions of GP a day and buy items with GP that shouldn't exist. They are overloading the economy with GP

So you're saying that every single player should log on and 26k every day just so they can afford to buy the inflated items? See the imbalance?
