The Simpsons Movie
What plot? :P Hilarious movie, the beginning especially. "Why the hell do we have to pay to see something we already get at home, for free? these guys are all suckers..." Eh not the greatest, you said the funniest part of the whole film.

Why can't America view gaming like Korea.

Shey was here!
So Shey, what will the other level be in? I just have a feeling you want 1900 total when you get the next triple cape set.

Met's Retirement Castle Wars Event! ~!~Over~!~
Glad to see that you are enjoying CW one last time. Sad that I won't be able to make it because I have already quit. You have always been a great role model for players on what they should obtain, one that is a honest and fair person. Thanks for all that you have done. =D> Have fun at the event! :

rank names
The reason behind some of the names is because well the ranks were here a long time ago. There was no Jad or anything like that. Personally I think they are fine, because it doesn't matter on your post count to change your rank. If you really want to change your rank, that is what the rank competitions were for.

Forum Discrimination
Just wanted to point out that Tifers make up Tip.it, so yeah I know what you meant but you point out two different groups. You first said Tifers as a whole, then switched it to a few members. So what is it? On other points, you will never obtain a Utopian Society with in a forum. There will always be disagreement to what people think (what you call discrimination.) People think skilling is more fun then combat and vice versa. While there is nothing wrong with having fun while playing a game with in the rules, people will always disagree with you. (I bet someone disagrees with the statement I just said :lol: ) Really you just have to get over the fact that it happens. About those who are emotionally "hurt" I wouldn't doubt that there a few people that could be by this. But if they are I would guess they are of the younger group that plays, and during that time period in life, you will get hurt. I personally have never been emotionally hurt from RS, never even realized it was a problem (I still don't think it is a problem to worry about.) If people are getting "hurt" on this game, then they are not ready to play. Trying to discourage other players is inevitably part of the game to some players. If they can't handle it, I don't believe they are mature enough to play with other people.

age and maturity of rs players declining?
There is no real way to distinguish if the community is declining in age, but maturity I think can be seen with the naked eye. You may see alot of what you spoke of in the wild, cw, duel arena, etc, but as stated, people try to be the best and that is to look down on others to puff up yourself to make it "seem" you are the best. There is no way to really stop it, they aren't held liable for their actions and when people have almost no rules to go by, all heck breaks out loose.

,,
When we changed worlds the first time, it was because the world was full pretty much all the time. (W9) Like people have already stated, it has been a couple of days, not even a week. Hopefully the hype dies down just so we can keep W99 but if it doesn't in a couple of weeks, you guys can move, I got my homeworld still in me, cause I ain't movin'.

Should they just remove Pest Control?
I believe Jagex did the right thing with Pest Control. A mini game is not supposed to be a direct source of exp, rather something fun with the exp as a side aspect as incentive. I remember when it first came out, they already had to cut the exp from rewards because it was such a great amount already. I know people complained that they "nerfed" it at that time but it was still the fastest way to gain exp per hour. A year rolls on and they change it. They did cut how much exp per hour you receive but they made it more of a "mini game" atmosphere. I don't think they wanted mini games to be 30 secs in length. Correct me if I am wrong but wasnt there more than one way to get points then to just destroy the portals? If you had the Void Knight last then you won, but with less rewards or something like that. Jagex wanted them to be longer, that is why they invented the random shields. They did the shields so you would talk to your teammates to work together to win, not just hack away at the same portal everytime. All in all, Pest Control is still the best way to gain exp. It just isn't as fast as games would be with a clan. I think the people that are "complaining" are those that are pures or those that were in 90+ clans whose combat levels are 90-99. Personally I am in that range too, but Pest Control bored me when I tried to play. I might be tempeted to try it again now with the updates.

Community really that bad?
That is a whole different aspect, yes you know that is part of the mini game, but people have fun while doing it. I know when I play Trouble Brewing, I grab a torch and keep lighting the bridge on fire and do a fire dance. Ok so I dont get the max amount of rewards but I am having fun while it is a fair part of the game. Heh, I had to add that last part because scammers could think it is fun to scam, but it is not a fair part of the game.

What drives you to succeed?
The thing that drives me the most is the compliments and push from my friends to obtain what I have wanted. Them wanting me to keep going have kept me going for so long. I played this game, not for myself, but a chance to change the normality in this game and help others out before myself. You guys were my drive.

Mirror's Blog <3 ~ Closed!
Well I came back on my last day of membership, got rid of more things, and decided to *finally* post a pic of my bank. This means I am finally out for good. The end of a legacy, or the beginning of something great? It is your time to shine, you guys will do great. I can safely say that I have retired in the one place worth retiring, W99 Edgeville. Thanks for everything guys, and best of luck!

Community really that bad?
Runescape has been the only MMORPG (I hope I did that right) that I have played. When I started there was scamming/begging which I acount as part of a "bad" community. But as the years have progressed, I have noticed an increase in these players and decrease in the nicer players in my view. Before I continue, I guess I should tell you what my view of a bad community. My view of a bad community is when there are people in the way/hindering the correct way to play/using language that is not appropriate of people that age. Runescape has seen an increase in these types of players. The biggest increase I have seen have been autoers in there actions of trying to farm gold. That is a different aspect of the community and will stay away from that. The players that use words such as noob or other "1337" terms have been introduced to this game. When I joined there were a mass that did that. It is nothing new, it is something you learn to deal with whether it be an ignore button or personally not caring. Scammers have been a part of this game as well, because they want to make an easy buck. I may have seen an increase in this but very little. Beggars being in the same category as Scammers. My overall thought is that the community has gotten worse, just not as big as some people have expressed. It may not be filled with language from that example used from Halo (thank you sensor) but it has a ton more problems besides the ones stated from other games. I think every game has its down point and those downpoints do not have to be true for every other game.

The degrading community
That is exactly what I believe, thanks for putting it into better words for me. I believe because the "leaders" of TIF have left, very few have replaced them and there was thus a void. Since there was a void to be filled, you have what you see now, a new community/generation.

The degrading community
Finally a topic I think I should post on. Most of you know that I have quit RS/Tip.it because of this reason. The leaders of the forum that I used to look up to are gone whether it was Shiva, Oergg, or someone else, it doesn't matter, it is not the same, and it will never be the same. I am not a RSC veteran but I played it along side RS2 back when I joined in 2004. (Just so Clippersboy gets off my case =P) I used to have the greatest times hanging out with people knowing who people were and what not. Now I had to keep my private on to friends only because of random people pming me and it is a wp. I dont even know who that guy was. There are alot of pointless topics being started in these boards but I guess thats what people have moved to. I just am not a fan of that anymore after recently I felt rejected when I had to add something to a topic. "What cape goes with what outfit?" topic and he wanted pictures so I took a picture of my QP cape with Eldinis Robes and I was told to get a matching outfit. I don't know why but that angered me. Once again, it just is not the same anymore, to my liking that is. I dont know if there is a way to solve this. Create a new board for "veterans" perked my interest but is just a wish which I dont think would become a possibility. I think that it just evolved to become this way and if you don't like, then I guess you are out. How much I hate to agree to it, I kinda do. I got pushed out of the community that I so dearly loved. But I have to back up some people from this new community. I see great leaders in this new group that will go far. It is just so hard to find them. Back in the day it was not hard with so fewer people but now it is with the mass of people. Don't lose all hope because hopefully those new leaders will try and keep what I remember a reality that I could perhaps come back to.

F2P is more fun then members
It is all in a matter of persepective. Some people enjoy having the mass space available for expansion, while some like it simpler. I personally have enjoyed both aspects. I like updates but I do enjoy things simpler as just fishing along Barb Village trying to get your level up. So much more peaceful imo, but once again, that's is my opinion. You do not have to follow my opinion. Off Topic: This is just crap!!! You are not rounding up every single f2p player of RS and putting them in the same notion of Scammers/Autoers/etc. That is bogus. I thought you guys would be better, because each person is a whole entire different person. Because some people ruin a game, does not mean you can ruin everyone's reputation because he plays in f2p. Whatever, I really don't care anymore.
