Why isn't Tip.It giving out letters that take the side of those opposing change, and just promoting that change is good? When the staking bit(I believe tis change this is coming from that alone) is completely a negative thing amongst us the customer. I haven't seen one tip it letter or article saying this. Even when most other fansites are agreeing it was a bad update. Tip.It isn't being very neutral, Tip.It is siding with one side, and in my mind ignoring facts on the others side. Sorry if I'm ranting/flaming Tip.It but link me to somewhere where Tip.It is saying the update was a negative one? This article and letters both make Jagex look good with the updates they've currently done, I don't get that? It makes Tip.It look like they are sucking up to Jagex, or trying to remain in their good shoes. Or am I wrong? I don't know, but the articles/letters are only promoting the change, and backing up Jagex on the stacking bit. Why isn't Tip.It presenting both sides of the change? Posting articles, and letters that give good reviews on the positive, and negative side of the updates or in Tip.It's words 'change'. Either way the letters are good for their description of change, however they do miss that change can be a bad thing, and we shouldn't always accept change, even if it is something good to us. The implying topic behind this letter gets to me and says to me 'Accept That Jagex Updated Staking, Because You Should Accept Change'. Change is good, it can also be bad. Also getting an F on a test, how is that change? You did that test? So how is it that you can't accept that? By not accepting it, your rejecting that you wrote the test, meaning you were in control of the change. I don't even get what that has to do with the article. The change we're talking about, or should be is the change we're not in control of, not the 'change' that Tip.It is presenting that we have control in. Change we don't have control in is updates to RS, or natural disasters for example. I still do not see why Tip.It is giving such a lame way to express change, and is not even getting the entire description in. Even if Tip.It didn't write the letter, the letter itself was chosen by Tip.It officials, its either bad reading skills, or a rush job. But since I'm not part of Tip.It, I can not know what goes on behind the scenes, so as it will be posted, this is just a speculation, whether or not it's completely true, or completely wrong. That is true change in real life, I'm glad they put in at least one example like that. However the author of the letter used the other example of change, (which I've already said about) as an example to further the letter on. This just ruins the rest of the letter as the quiz example is not change. You controlled the outcome of the quiz, meaning nothing but you caused the change. Yes, we do different actions that are caused from change, and actual change, not the quiz change the author is talking about, which is false in my opinion, and those actions are ranting, or constructively criticizing an update or something in real life. If we're allowed to get along with change, we're also allowed to argue with the change. When we argue with the change, many thing happen. We can change the change back to it's original origin, or we can make a different change. Like so, eventually we'll be able to stop weather disasters like Tornadoes with future technology, as we're arguing, or going against the weather, because we do not like the change of weather. Sure we could go along with the weather, and let people get killed by the weather and massive damages to homes and leave people homeless, but really who wants that? Do you want to pay more taxes for those damages? In RuneScape we can also argue change, not just accept it. We can riot, or post on the RSOFs. Riots are much like a physical attack on Jagex, much like in medieval times where wars happened to change the outcome, or change of something. Posting is like getting a treaty and both follow a long with it. Either way will work towards the one group, or the other. But these are both good examples of change, and how we can go against it. We rioted about SS being banned, it got changed, we changed the outcome. Everyday we argue back with Jagex about changes they've made. We change the outcomes everyday. So is it good to always accept change? Just go along with it, as the author of this letter bluntly says? To me the author of the first letter has completely ignored another side of change, the human mind, the brain of change, so when he says he as learned changed, he is fooling himself everyday. Do you want to accept some guy coming into your country, declaring he is the new ruler, and you must everyday pay him any money you obtain, you must inflict pain upon yourself as well everyday? Do you want that? That is an example of 'to accept change for something that is inevitable but doesn't always have to be something to dread' (thats a quote from the letter by the way)? Or do you want Jagex getting rid of your armour, money, and your stats? I'm going to laugh when everyone who said that good job jagex taking out staking because they do not stake, or do not care about it, those people get their stats, or whatever they care about taken away from them by Jagex. They will complain then, and know how the stakers felt when Jagex robbed them of Staking. Do you want this to happen? Well if your agreeing with the first letter, then yes, you'd accept this without arguing it back. It is dumb, ignorant, and foolish possibly even idiotic to accept change like the author of this letter says. If your agreeing with this letter, I'm sorry but you either haven't grasped what change can do to you, how it will affect you in life. Yes, you may have never had a great change on you, that is why you can say 'I agree', because you've never had major changes happen to you, or you have had major changes happen to you, you just liked them, even you didn't like the changes, but your not putting the change being discussed here with the past change. When change makes you feel like crap, pathetic, and insignificant, you will know why accepting change is not always for the better. I do not know why Tip.It isn't presenting that you should also argue back with change, and only presenting to accept change. This to me looks like Tip.It is sucking up to Jagex, or trying to look good in front of an audience. That is how it comes out to me, and I'm sure others agree. So I hope Tip.It can muster the strength up to actually publish good letters regarding change, instead of the half-hearted, and little to none knowledgeable letters that was posted today. Meaning they can post more than just one side of change, and post that we should at least argue with change every time to see if it was good or not. Then make a decision from there. No, I'm not sorry if I sounded harsh, mean or even at some points flame Tip.It, I tried to keep it as constructive as possible.

Go down to the sword shop four houses down, and take out a good chunk of weaponry. Then start practicing my horizontal swing. ;)

The scary part is, I stay up all night, and miss my sleep for the night sometimes. >:(

also out over 150m more than you lol, that skill was waaaaay to expensive... At least Magic and Palm seed prices are going down : Of course this is after both Dusty and Wakka got a ton of their levels :D stinks for them! Always seems to happen. ;) Except for crafting, cause the hides went up after he got 99 crafting,g but then they went back down. -.-

I meant 3:01am, as that's when they update each page on a weekday in the eastern time zone. So be prepared to wake up early.

Just watch out rush, it's very addicting. I'm almost always up at 3:01 to read it. I set my alarm for 3:01. It's darn addicting like RS. >.> I bet we won't see anymore of this 'hot scene,'. ^_^ Hopefully I'm totally agree.

R.I.P Evel.

Jagex better leave pking alone, well actually let them fix what they've messed up with it, then just leave it alone. This update actually had some sense in it, and actually looks thought-through, good job Jagex.

Let them fix the R2H switch. So right-click on higher levels doesn't mess you up. So the R2H hits back to it's normal speed. Then December will be a nice peaceful month. I could care less about what they do, as long as they can fix their mistakes(note these do affect not only f2p pures, but mains as well, so don't flame me for posting something like this)

Burn Me. Throw Me Away. Stop Thinking About Me. If any one person follows those(in the right order) after I die, I'll be happy. ^_^

Hmm, one more month and this blog will be extra special. ^_^

If TIP.IT accepted love as bids for the auction, I'd have already put up 100million love. <3

Even though this article is a generalization of someone's own mind? Even though this object could be completely off, your willing to listen to it, and call it the truth? Yes, your not contradicting yourself, good job.

Happy B-Day Third, can't believe or B-Days are on the same day, what a coincidence? Hope you had a good B-Day. ^_^ Misfile isn't getting boring, it is just getting slower or appears to get slower as we're predicting more accurately the outcomes, or narrowing the outcomes down as it's not such a big thing as we've discussed it already...or I'm wrong.

I'm going to guess woodcutting for your next skill. :wink: Congratz on 96 mate, only 3 more to go...if you want to call it '3'. Woot! I turned 15 today, feels great. ^_^

Can't wait till needles are 40kea from this. :-#

Gratz on 84 mate. ;) 227301/17000 = 13.7 13 hours?

Friends? Like Skatedog? He'd eat Wakka's [cabbage] if he asked him to do it. Apart from the insult in that post, don't try to give wakka any idea's, as I may feel obligated to do it. Of course, I don't think wakka would take it too kindly if I was eating the cabbage he was growing in falador. : Anyways, wakka, I detested slayer, but now it's really growing on me. It's hard to not think about slayer whenever I'm not doing something in real life. =S

That's all fine and dandy, but what happens when we have choice about the change? What happens when we can reverse the change? What happens when we put both choice, and opinion together to reverse something that made change? That alone in my opinion destroys the logic, and the point behind this article.

Preview button could be a pop-up, in a new window, therefore it's not clogging anything up, and it's easily done, as in signature preview would be in the new window. Maybe even an example post, with your signature in it would be better. :-k ^_^

Woot! Gratz on 97 farminh, 95 rcing, and 82 herblore. ^_^

You wither in pain and agony for 3am eastern. >.>

Wow, finally some sort of emotions...
