Well, I was taking a shower, and thinking... about just random stuff really, but then it dawned on me... there is a major reason why RuneScape is the way it is right now (a.k.a. bad), and I think I know how to help it along in the right direction.
Well, one day I was playing Castle Wars, and a guy on my team was clearing the tunnels so the enemy could get through with our flag. I told him to stop, and explained why we needed it to be closed, and he said the two famous words, "make me." Make me! The nerve of that kid! He was level... I believe 74, or 76, but that doesn't matter. Now, most people do mean things because no one can do anything to them... no lashback if you will. What were to happen if we did add a "lashback"? What if, we brought back world-wide pking? I know, it started off being that one team owns everyone else, and that's why the wilderness was made, but, why not have better rules on it? I mean, WWPking could do some good. I mean, this way, if someone were being annoying, we really could make them stop, and they would learn not to do it again, or stop when asked to. Have it so that you would need to be within 20 levels to attack, and it wouuld be single-combat areas. Or maybe a few multi areas where most problems occur; this way everyone can kick his can. With this however, there would be a lot of pkers going "yes! I support this completely!" and clans would amass in sizes, but it might just save RuneScape.
Of course, this wouldn't save it, but it would help it along. We'd need to make the game harder, in order to weed out the people with short attention spans, and only get the serious gamers in here. I would rather have 50k people on at most than have these kind of players around. And yes, I do play on rs2.
Then all the "pures" would go kill the low leveled people.

I thought I would never give up on Runescape until I gave it a try and didn't log in for 150+ days. True story.

Everyone knows you can choose the color of your skin and your gender at the beginning of the game. But apparently, now this effects the gameplay entirely. Recently, I saw these 2 scenarios play out.
Rs player 1=Light-colored skin man
Rs player 2=Dark-colored skin man
Rs player 3=Light-colored skin man
Rs player 1:selling full zammy!!!
Rs player 2:I will buy for 2.2mil
Rs player 1:I don't believe you really have that much
Rs player 2:I do, I will show you
Rs player 3:I will buy it, trade me
Rs players 3 and 1:Thanks
This struck me as amazing, I made another post about the decline in the community, but this was too far.
Here is the second scenario that I saw.
Rs player 1=Light-colored skin man
Rs player 2=Light-colored skin woman
Rs player 3=Light-colored skin man
Rs player 1:selling 3k willows 60k!!!
Rs player 2:ill buy all
Rs player 3:no i will buy all
Rs player 2:ill buy all for 70k
Rs player 1:no thanks i want to sell to him (Rs player 3)
I thought this was totally unfair. But also, usually the women players in Runescape get better deals, and people are a lot nicer to them. However, a lot of guys who play Runescape think that an online relationship will actually work as a real relationship (most likely because they can't get a girlfriend in real life). They also think that they can somehow have sex through an online game (which is frankly the stupidest thing i have ever heard).
OMG!!! CALL THE COPS BECAUSE EVERY MALE CHARACTER IS A GUY AND ALL FEMALE CHARACTERS ARE FEMALES!!!!

Good ol' Dmoneysme, Best friend forever.
-
I accepted the fact that runescape sucks but then again its on the internet.
I know I am lucky.

Any tip.iters who participated in this riot should be ashamed. That is no way to act when you are mad, I am especially displeased that this went on it tip.it's homeworld, giving tip.it a bad name.
There's a handy forum called the rants board where you can riot all you want. Jagex will listen to you in the rants board, NOT when you riot. No one should be complaining if they got muted.
EDIT: If I saw zezima I would personally thank him for settling that riot, that was very kind of him.
:lol:

Have you ever got annoyed at having to switch to your stats tab to look when you will gain a level?
Or have you wasted time waiting for the exp to come up just to see how much until your next level?
Introducing: The Exp Countdown!
Basically, this is a new feature that is completely optional; if you don't want to use it, you don't have to. The Exp Countdown will say how much exp you have left until your next level in a particular skill in the top left hand corner. You will be able to have up to 5 skills displayed at any one time. The whole idea is that you will be able to see how much exp you need until your next level, regardless what menu tab you are on, and with no waiting for the exp to appear.
To use the feature, you right click the skill you want to be shown, and click on "Show Exp Remaining". If you want to remove that skill, you simply right click the skill and click "Hide Exp Remaining", which is in the same place as Show Exp Remaining. If you do not understand, here is a picture demonstrating it.
If the top left hand corner is being taken up by another feature, for example the Castle Wars information (I can't remember what is in what corner, so if someone would like to inform me that would be great), the exp remaining would move further right, so as to be in the middle of the top of the screen, if you get what I mean.
Note: This suggestion is still a work in progress. That means that you can suggest new placements for it, what colour the exp font should be, etc. If you don't understand anything, don't be afraid to ask.

Math is to hard for kids. :(

If you have the time to read, you have the time to post. I have the time for personal replies :D
Also, add me if you wish :D
I need someone to give me an idea of something that is thought to be against the rules, but isn't. If nobody can give me any at all, I will remove the suggestion.
I'd like to suggest a new way of report abuse. Nothing major, but helps.
Suggestion 1
That simple. It then leads you to this:
JAGeX will also put things in there that people think are against the rules, but aren't. If someone clicks this, the following will come up:
Suggestion 2
OK, this one is pretty simple. This allows you to select what kind of abuse it was. There are two views, All and Category.
Here is all:
And here is category:
This could help JAGeX put it in an order of importantness.
Suggestion 3
No pictures here. But...
When you report someone, JAGeX receives a snapshot of what happened 60 seconds ago. However, after you have reported them, they do something even worse in the next few seconds. You try to report them, and get ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹ÃâYou canÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t report more than once in the last 60 secondsÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢.
How annoying is that?
To fix this problem, JAGeX needs to make it so not only do they get a last 60 seconds snapshot, but they record the next 60 seconds as well. This would increase the amount of bad players banned, and help JAGeX be tougher.
Suggestion 4
NEWEST IMPROVED
This is called chatbox locking. Basically, this is to help suggestion 1 be used. When you click the padlock, the scrollbar locks to the text, allowing you to right click and select report player. Confusing, isn't it? Well, I will show an animation soon enough.
This is what it looks like unlocked:
And locked:
This is how it works, by attacking the scroll bar to the text.

Thanks to inferno_char for the signature, and putting me in the BISSS :D
Rate/Hate/Debate. Hope the pictures were good enough, lol.
PM me if you want. RSN is Jcfc, NOT Jfcf. I don't know why people call me that, but oh well.
This would confuse people though.
-
You're an idiot.
-
It's not that bad if you actually owned one yourself 8).
Whats up with your guys face?
-
I'm gonna choose to "Late" this message. Care to explain how?
-
Gratz on your Draong Legs.
-
December 2nd. I quit RS. I didn't even have it planned. I just quit because theres no end game content. No monsters are hard. Theres no challenge to anything.
-
I wouldn't be greedy and I would share.
-
0/10 Wheres the bank picture at?
-
I indeed have a pure rune essense. Thanks for asking.
-
I got considerably old when whenever someone would made a valid, well constructed rant of a certain part of the game, all the responses end up looking like this:
"QQ moar nub lrn2play."
HUH? =/
What can you expect? World of Warcraft always bags on Runescapeand runescape cusses, scams, macros, imo were alot worse then their results.
People cuss in WoW, people macro in it (though it's rare because it's hard to do), people don't scam in WoW (well hardly ever anyway).
The WoW community is just as bad, you wouldn't believe the vulgarity they use in that game (have you ever played?)
~L
so what, suck it up. i get cursed by random people everyday. macroing in runescape takes away your fun, cussing can be easily avoided and it causes you no problems (if you have a high self esteem) runescape cusses way more then WoW (if you dont stake, safe in the wild). just glance at the f2p lumby more often, see what im talking about. seriously.
Seriously, you have no idea what your talking about until you have played, RS is a much cleaner game when it comes to language used.
Lol, thats because the game is made for 10 year olds that dont need to heard cuss words.
Ya, End game stuff on RS made me quit....nothing! no new items, monsters, WEAPONS. Every monster because jad could be grouped with hundreds of people. Wow you can only have 5 for a dungeon(instance) or up to 40 for a really hard raid.
Or...(This is me =D)

default clothings lol :lol:
Don't you love how cloth is the same as metal?
-
Oh really? tell me how to find out in 10 seconds.
Also 9m people playing a free games isn't much to 1m less playing a game for $15 :\
-
ok 10m play but i bet theres like 4m unqiue accounts.
Also i i'm not God like you so i dont know these stats.
-
I think theres to many. In WoW you can only have 2 besides first aid, cooking and fishing. :)
:mrgreen:
And this to anyone who thinks WoW is better.... compare numbers?
Runescape has 3m players, WoW has 8m
Runescape takes 5$ wow takes $15...i think if theres 8m people paying $15 a month then its alot better than 3m paying $5
