Mith drags... i need some help
The loss of the FSH tends to outweigh even those bonuses on tasks, but if you're just camping them that's perfectly reasonable advice.

Well I'm curious, is there really any topicality in blogscape? It seems like the longest time there hasn't been.

If it happens like that in an offensive/disruptive context, it's probably reportable.

No, I would like to remove people whom systematically go out of their way to make the entire board a bad place to be. We have plenty here, and it is the reason why there are so many "Why is this place so miserable" threads. Then report them when they break the rules so the staff can do their job. If you want a great community, you have to be an active participant. It does no good to go all-out and confront the people you don't like in public like you're on some moral crusade--it actually exacerbates the problem. And if they're not breaking the rules but just being blunt you could possibly try talking to them in private? Or if that task is too distasteful there's the ignore list, which is easily the 3rd time mentioning this XD.

So you want to ban people who follow the rules because they're not likable? It doesn't work that way. Just put them on your ignore list. Not a hard concept. And if they are breaking the rules? Report them. They will get banned eventually if they persist. But moderators take great lengths to try to educate users rather than just slap them on the wrist and put them in the naughty corner. It's a commendable effort, but it means the community has to work with them to help them. Outright shunning/ostracizing is not the answer to this problem either...not in the long term, anyway.

I honestly don't notice a difference between the community now and two years ago. The only difference is the derision is not aimed towards 'outsiders' but people who are less experienced at the game. Otherwise the substantiation discussion, great update discussion topics, and decent clan section are as stable as ever. But c'mon now. This is easily the third or fourth thread about it though. First one might've been a good step to get change going, second was a bit repetitive, third and anything afterwards is just white noise. Just report trolls/rule-breaking posts; mods are quick to lock bad threads lately which is has its own list of pros and cons, but that's a discussion for a different thread. Best way to change this is just to let your ignore list grow sleek and happy and keep being good people.

Nintendo Ds
DSi (2nd most) = DSlite (least expensive of the 3) but with a camera DSXL = bigger than the original ds screen, most expensive

Well you're in luck. They made an entire skill where if you want to train it effectively, you've got your fill of idiots to pick from.

Does Jagex really know its own game?
Then your answer lacks validity because you cannot prove your claim. Nor can you prove that he can. Shall we dance in circles or can you get over yourself and move on? If a man can code and create a game as complex as Runescape Classic was, I'm assuming he can point and click his way across the map. Can I prove that? No. Am I saying this is fact? No, I'm saying it's an assumption. You're saying your statement is fact yet you've admitted you cannot prove it. That's intentionally presenting false/invalid arguments as fact, which is trolling. Maybe some people will believe you on the RSOF. Otherwise, it's just old hat now.

True Ownage Vs. Juniors
Good pull for a weekday from you guys, T0. Good job. Better luck next time, Juniors. It's nice to see a CWA fight that doesn't have dc'ing. Then it's just pure organization and tanking. Really makes for an interesting watch.

I doubt that Andrew Gower has the free time to care much about the intricacies of the game when he's overseeing 4 projects in total. That's why he has people working under him. Name one person at Jagex who could figure it out. Until then I rest my case. It's impossible to prove just like your own claim is impossible to substantiate. If you want to have a rant where you just want to vent steam and not bother with intelligent discussion, then there's the door. Don't let it hit you on the way out.

People have wanted fun ways to train otherwise boring, grind skills. The minigame you mention gives more benefits to hunters than to summoning. The charm aspect was just one more way to allow skillers to work with summoning--that, too, has also been a huge complaint from that part of the community for quite some time. It's kind of ironic that some people would accuse Jagex of lack of viewpoint when we ourselves forget these things. The street trading was commented on by Andrew some time ago. Street trading isn't a huge priority for them, because it's the player's answer to a crippled system, and it saves them time. They're certainly aware of it, but because it all ties into RWT'ing so intricately, it's hard for them to even start working on solutions. As for the botting, well, recent accusations of level resetting have shown just how much they care about that. Although maintaining that it's a bug, it seems to give them the best of all worlds. They see that players get cheap raw materials, they don't hemorrhage money chasing down false credit cards, and bots keep botting (and therefore paying) because they had reset levels. Seems to me they know their game more than most people give them credit for. I will admit though, one of the biggest 'you dun goofed' moments I can recently recall was when Jagex tried to fix shark-brewing, denounced it as a bug, then caved after the overwhelming anger outburst by the P2P pking community saying that the reason for the reversal was because the bug itself has created a new strategy that was necessary for combat. Doesn't mean they don't know their player base, just that they suck at p2p pking. And lots of people do, lol, so I'm hardly surprised there.

::.Fable Discussion Thread.:: Fable 3 Released!
I found going around naked produced more laugh-worthy quotes but I will admit he has his zingers. I just don't think he changes the game's feel. Replace him with some other old guy with a british accent and it'd be the same. He's a talented actor and a pretty damn good voice actor I think, so I think the role could've gone further if they bothered.

::.Fable Discussion Thread.:: Fable 3 Released!
...really? After the first 20 minutes of the game it's just: Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! Welcome to the sanctuary! He did a better job in Jade Empire, through no fault of his own. For the catastrophe of letting his character go undeveloped I blame Lionhead.
