  1. I'm only going to say this once. It's almost impossible to come up with a hard-hitting, controversial article each and every week. Please don't ask us to.

     

     

     

    And why do we publish every week? Because you, our users asked us to. You cannot imagine how many PM's I get and how many topics get posted when we miss a week. We have over 100,000 users on our forums, and not all of them agree that we should ONLY publish highly controversial, hard-hitting editorials. And I'm not even counting our main site users that do not have a forum account. And what is an editorial? An opinion. What the Editor writes is HIS OPINION, and while you're free to disagree, that's the point behind an editorial. But that doesn't mean he's wrong. Or right.

     

     

     

    If you prefer, we can reduce our articles to once a month if you're opposed to "filler", as you call it. And I don't call this article "filler" at all. It's an editorial. We can't keep publishing articles on a weekly basis if you only want a specific kind of article. That's the bottom line. And you know, if you don't like the subjectmatter of the article, you're free to not read it.

     

    Maybe I was a little over-critical, because I did actually enjoy reading it. I think the problem here, as with every form of media, is compromise. Maybe the editor, whoever he/she may be hasn't had one of those "rant-inducing moments", but because a select part of the audience demands weekly updates, He (editor) feels he must release an article.

     

     

     

    Maybe this isn't the case. Maybe it's a different editor writing a different story.

     

     

     

    Either way, I enjoy reading the articles every week, even if some aren't so crticial.

  2. I can't help noticing that you seem to have completely overlooked barrows, and the quite recent introduction of a few level 300+ monsters; activities which thousands strive to partake in, and continue to partake in, even after they loot their first Dragon hatchet, or after they've fully assembled their chosen barrows set.

     

     

     

    I've always found that Runescape is a game that can be played in the user's own way; I raise my stats so I can do activity A, with player B, or even look good in front of players C, D and E. I feel no need to do anything I don't want to.

     

     

     

    Runescape, to me, has never been about chasing goals and stopping afterwards. There's just too much scope for that, so much more to do. Your article reads as if you play the game only to do what JAGeX "tells" you to, rather than spending time talking to friends, struggling with the economy, or just finding new ways to annoy autoers...

     

     

     

    Another thing; I've started losing interest in these "articles". They're losing their direction, and they don't seem to be tackling any real issues any more.

  3. Hmmm first update I can really remember is the RS2 update. I was around before the wilderness, but I don't really remember them introducing it, so I guess it doesn't count.

     

     

     

    Heh, in the old days, I was completely oblivious to the front-page news. :\

     

     

     

    Infact! The update I remember most was the one when they updated the rocks! They actually put a timer-script-thingy so you had to wait to mine a rock... That one still annoys me today. It was so much easier before :\

  4. Lol, I wouldnt see it if I was payed 100 dollars. It would be the most stupid movie ever released on film.

     

    You've clearly never watched The Fast and the Furious.

     

     

     

    Heh, I'd love to see an RS movie made to the same production standards as, oh, Sword of the Valiant... If you've seen that movie, you'll get the joke. ;)

  5. Just because Under 13s are no longer playing Runescape, doesn't mean to say that any Over 13s aren't offended by swearing. There's just no need for it.

     

     

     

    Swearing can be used to good effect, but it takes effort, effort which isn't there during a runescape conversation. Used blatantly, Curse words, Profanity, whatever you may call them, will only make you seem immature and petty.

  6. =D> THat's probably alot better than what you'd find in a racing video game :shock: Very good 10/10

     

    That's because in a racing video game, there are limits on the amount of tris one can use, and the filters too, for that matter.

     

     

     

    My only crit is that, well, it's a car :\

     

     

     

    My experience in 3d modelling work leads me away from building things already determined... The shape of this was already perfect before it was built, so although the building process is well done, and the wrapping is okay, I'll reserve judgement, as the actual design of it isn't strictly your own.

  7. I would Quote, but the post would just be big and ugly.

     

     

     

    No, I didn't mean that he was expressing himself, but the way the first few posts were just 'OMG that looks bad y u post here???', kinda annoyed me...

     

     

     

    If a picture is 'bad', but expressive in some way, then surely it shouldn't be criticised on it's technical faults?

  8. YES YES YES YES YES!

     

     

     

    1st post on a thread which will soon be flooded yay ;)

    Nice work, B2D. im sure these avvys/sig will find a nice little space under someones posts :)

     

     

     

    Three words.

     

     

     

    The rest was 'Oooh I got first post - go me!'

     

     

     

    Ugh nevermind...

     

    Gold, your post was more off-topic than the original.

     

     

     

    Anyway, Some nice work B2D.

  9. This is spam...

     

     

     

    You know it doesn't look good, so why are you posting it?

     

     

     

    This is pure stupidity...

     

    Art is a form of expression. Whilst many may use art as something to gain praise from others, I use it to advance, to challenge myself.

     

     

     

    Why does something have to look good?
