    Jagex Stance On Multilogging - Changed

    in General Discussion

    Posted

     

    My gut says to ignore all of this because it was mod balance who said it

     

    This kid should go back to moderating runezone because he has no idea what he is doing.

    I'd wait for a legit jmod confirmation before doing anything stupid.

     

     

    Mod Balance was representing the player support team here:

     

    "My post was posted with the approval of the Player Support team."

     

    "My comments were a post on behalf of the Player Support team, I didn't make up the changes. I just took the player questions to them, and posted their response.

    The statements posted are there to "fill the gap" between now and when the rules are next updated."

    OT: Jagex recently invited the top streamers to HQ for a stream with all at once. Sad most of the streamers were 07ers, shows JaGeX values entertainment factor vs dedication and knowledge in who they reward

     

    Not just for streaming:

     

    "Next few days are gonna be busy. Got some awesome players here to help us with designing legacy combat/PvP improvements/other stuff."

    "They'll be in the studio for 2 days. We've got a mixed bag of EOC/old school players to try to get balanced views on legacy."

    Reinventing the Squeal

    Not entirely unexpected :D

     

    Quote from an e-mail by MMG to a SoF dissident, sent on April 19th 2013, published on May 11th 2013:

    ...I’m conscious a few players have called the creative implementation into question and I suppose it’s not a helpful comparison when other companies do indeed use a similar spinning wheel device for what is very clearly a real gambling service, the team have a project slated this year to look at changing the implementation.

    On August 21th 2013 this rebranding was hinted at during an AMA with an ex-Jmod on Reddit:

    Although, Squeel is being removed soon. (Not previously public news).

    On a brighter note, the /r/runescape moderator who visited the Jagex HQ last week is now running a competition about the fate of Yelps :P

    At this point it's safe to say this is becoming a problem... but what exactly are we looking at here?

     

    Jagex's (new) community engagement staff is talking about stuff they don't know enough about. Namely, Mod Infinity and Mod Balance, whose backgrounds were mentioned by Serfal earlier in this thread. With that said, I think they have decent intentions, it's just a terrible way of doing things...

     

    Post 1 - November 19th, 3 PM - Mod Balance

    Post 2 - November 19th, 4 PM - Mod Infinity

    Post 3 - November 26th, 5 PM - Mod Infinity

     

    It's not only a bad case of miscommunication, this is a pretty touchy subject, and one that's been discussed for years.

    At the very least, we know these two mods are not entirely making stuff up. Mod Infinity is "quoting" a certain anti-cheating specialist in post 2... so what do they have to say?

     

    Mouse keys are safe to use, the problem lies with stuff like AutoHotKey (1, 2), which was what Infinity was trying to say in his first post, it just came out mangled.

    This proves the words of the anti-cheating team are being taken out of context, and we should try our best to disregard these kinds of posts until someone who knows what they're talking about makes an official statement.

    What's the problem? The old high score table will still be relevant, and prestiging is a great incentive to keep training after 99... :s

    The incentive to train after 99 is xp after 99. The update wouldn't change the incentive, it just adds an optional limitation.

     

    Any XP you gain in prestige mode goes toward your lifetime XP (the "old" high scores). This should be a welcome addition for anyone who's not racing to 200M all. Isn't most new content in this game optional and "inefficient"? Any player that's purely focused on efficiency can just avoid prestiging and continue training at level 99, anyone else can prestige to keep things 'fresh'.

    Doesn't matter anyways because that account isnt his lol:p + Multi-logging is not against the rules as long as the accounts don't interact in anyway.

     

    Technically it is, but Jagex doesn't really enforce it, nor do they feel like doing so.

     

    You are free to create more than one account, but if you do, you must not log into more than one at any time, and the accounts must not interact with each other in any way.

    5-Feb-2013 - Sinkholes + EoC Improvements

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    So I haven't read through the entirety of this post yet, so I apologize if this has already been discussed, but:

     

    What effects does the D&D have on skillers?

    Can skillers use it to gain additional Dungeoneering EXP?

     

    Skillers can partake in Sinkholes just fine. Combat is not mandatory. The combat objective seems to be the best way to rack up points though, so you might end up on the lower half of the scoreboard often. The new outfit does not have skill requirements.
