Or try the german severs.

Firstly, while I can understand why Jagex would want their mods to be on the same page as them (which does make sense, seeing as they are sort of representing the company by wearing the crown), its also important to remember that each and every person is entitled to having their own opinions. Sadly it just seems that Jagex won't listen to opinions that don't match theirs and this has been represented well over the RSOF in the past few months. Jibby (who is a very good friend of mine) wasn't the only one who was removed for posting stuff that...hm how should I word it..."content that didn't agree with their current policies"; I know of at least one or two more mods who were removed from the team for similar things. Funny thing is that all this seems to do is plague the forums. I was reading a thread in Future Updates just the other night which was posted by an FMod regarding the updates coming for this upcoming month (the OP wasn't really too happy with the month other than ROTM), and all I found was comments along the lines of "inb4demod, gf" written all over it. Go back a few months from now and if the same exact thread was posted, no such comments would have appeared *anywhere* on the RSOF.
First off, hi, I've seen you in the rsof :)
There are numerous things that Jagex does that may not be right or fair. Maybe a year or 2 ago they would have been worth fighting for, but in runescapes current state, it is probably best to just try to go with the flow as much as we can. There are plenty of ragers, spammers, and rioters already, and adding to it only causes more chaos.
Since this isn't runescape, I will share this little bit of info I got. There is a member in my clan who claims he applied for an actual job at Jagex.(He was actually a pmod, so I was kinda trusting that he was being truthful.) He claims that they have a whole room dedicated to solving the bot problem.
Maybe they are just throwing staff parties in there, idk, but hearing this has given me an entirely different view. Maybe If we just go with the flow and try to keep peace, then they will have more time to concentrate on this bot problem.

It is definitely interesting. The part I found most interesting was when he said he was pulled out of the game multiple times to patrol a thread or something, and that it wasn't fair. I have to disagree with that. Maybe Jagex isn't 100% truthful with what is expected and required of you as a moderator, but you have to remamber that any and all player/forum moderators can quit whenever, and I honestly have never heard of a moderator willingly resigning.
Mods are told (not just encouraged) that we are players first, mods second. Any time Jagex pulls a Mod out of playing the game to do Modly duties, it goes againt what they told us in the first place. I have no problem helping, but being told when I have to patrol a thread would make me quit right there.
As for resigning, people resign all the time. I can't post numbers / reasons, but it's certainly not uncommon.
You are 100% right, I'm just saying that I wouldn't complain, and from the sound of it, you are a mod and you don't mind either. I love this game and wouldn't mind spending some of my time making trivial attempts to try to help out. I think it would be kind of neat.

Use the german servers. There are no bots.

According to the article he distributed child porn. Maybe for money. He might not even be into that stuff. That's a whole different thing than say, being caught feeling up children. Jag is overreacting. Funny anyhow :lol:
They aren't overreacting. Any old right-wing nut could have made the link that Lagex gives gold fansite status to a website run by a sex-offender. Now, whilst being an absolutely rediculous straw-man argument that follows (well, if they give gold status to a website run by predators, they must be ok with predators) you have people out in segments of the media and society who will a) say it and b) believe it. They have to cover their arse as a business, because to have a game that is marketed to children (even though we say it's meant to be geared towards an adult audience), they can't have such things said - false or not. It will tarnish their reputation and this particular mud sticks.
Well, if he did his time, maybe they should just let it go. Then again, committing a sexual offense will haunt you forever, and this is only one of many of the consequences this man will face.

@OP
Haha, I noticed you opened some of them. Um, I hope you scanned your computer afterwards. :ohnoes:

I have to agree, that is a terrible idea. It would just destroy the purpose of the game.

Think to yourself right now, if you were a moderator right this second, would you complain? I would venture to say that a lot of people wouldn't. Maybe it isn't fair to do a ton of Jagex's work for them, but no one is being forced to. And if the player is happy, and it is helping make runescape a better game, then I think the way the moderators are being treated is fine.

Wow... wow... wow... Jagex has some issues to work out. :shame:
It's as simple as that really. Don't get me wrong, I still love this game, however there is plenty of room for improvement.

As far as I know, there are no exact calculation on how helpful the strung rabbit foot is. Just wear it anyway, it can only help you. :thumbsup:

The citadels are still fairly new. I have a feeling there will be some edits.
-
Yikes! :ohnoes: I've never heard of runevillage, but that doesn't sound good at all. You're right, it will probably get more attention.

I'm not sure about champion scrolls, but I have some knowledge of court cases. Court cases can be found fairly easily by pickpocketing al kaharid guards.

This is interesting. I'm going to look into this.

You are considering resubscribing, but first you want to know if they ban p2p bots? Sounds suspicious. <_<
Botting is a big no no. :shame:

Woodcutting is decent way to make money. There are almost no bots at the tree gnome stronghold, a near by bank, and a farm patch. So if you have at least 72 farming, you can have 2 magic trees and I think 3 or 4 yews, and bank them quickly.
-
I disagree. I have beat about 2/3 of the quests, and have 17.8 million woodcutting xp. The goals are time consuming, but doable, and I think that is how they are supposed to be. It would be extremely disappointing to "beat" runescape.
-
I think that in a few years, someone will get 200m xp in everything, just give it some time.

Might be coming back to PK and do some DKS, and just mess around. Is the game fun still? Last I played was in January.
I'll give you a welcome around 80 degrees. Is that warm enough? :P

Hey, I'm Pinta77. I've played runescape for over 5 years now, but I have just now joined the rune tips community, thought I have been aware of this site for years.
So ya hey. Oh, if anyone knows how I can make the picture work for my signature, I would really appropriate help. Thanks.
EDIT: Nevermind, I got it :D

Santas are pretty unstable. My guess is they will go no higher then 200 mil, then drop back down again.
