  1. Wonderful stories =)

     

     

     

    It's players like Omegawytch that really makes this game so good (occasionally). I also remember that at that time there were several other players coming out with some extremely good pkers/stakers.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Wonderful times =)

  2.  

    I'd report every single one of you for;

    Illegal wood cutting

     

     

     

    Poisoning

     

     

     

    Selling illegal substances (aka herbs) - herbs aren;t illegal - u dont get arrested for selling mint...

     

     

     

    Killing endangered species (dragons) - they just respawn anyway so the are not realy endangered

     

     

     

    Manslaughter - unless u mean we kill each other accidentaly what u mean is murder

    and do what exactly... we would be impossible to ban, as there would be no one outside of runescape, as it was "real", and would you realy like to try and imprison a lvl 126 with 99 mage?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    No, i'd bloody sue you!

  3. Actually there were quite a few free on-demand ones, just they didn't last long =/. And i'm not after illegal downloading so...

  5.  

     

     

    You have to understand, that my initial argument was not for 'a few servers for only older people'. No, this is what I was siggesting:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    True, but that wasn't what you posted later on.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    1. It's not discriminating, and its not ageism.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It's not? You must be blind to the truth then, mate. What you're suggesting is splitting the servers into age groups. And denying access for certain people because of their age is discriminating.

     

     

     

    And even if you wouldn't deny them access, not a good amount of people would be bothered about the age limitations. Not to mention the fact that it's not very realistic. Why? Because limiting ages on servers would cripple the amount of people on servers and you really think Jagex would be up to it?

  6. My only question for the 'older' people playing (say 23+) is why do they play?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Maybe because they enjoy gaming? I didn't know gaming had age restrictions...

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    does runescape have limits in ages?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Gee, what do you think?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    And might i add to any older players, that i am not against you in any way. In fact, i enjoy talking with older players and younger players alike. If by any chance you'd like to talk or just have a "mature" younger friend, the in-game name's Mad Spyder.

  7. Interesting points. Got confused somewhere along the line but i think i've got most of the stuff mentioned.

     

     

     

    Just a few questions related to time.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Do you notice how you can't 're-live' the past seconds? You can memorize it of course, but can you 'define' that very moment? That few time might feel like hours away, or is it just me being wierd?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    And i also read somewhere that there was this idea that the Universe was destroyed and created at the same instance the whole time, so time might be the very essence of Universe.

     

     

     

    I had some theories on that, but it's a bit late and i do need my beauty sleep after all.

  8. How is this hurting anyone?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It's not. But the idea is stupid though... Why? Reasons already covered.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Is that something you would do? "Oh no! Look!! Most of the people in this world are 20+ lets "siege" the world and run around and be immature in it." Why? I have covered the fact that some people actually might do that, and that's ok, I wouldn't mind. But it is very unlikely that all immature 11 year-olds would collectively gather and storm worlds with older age groups and wreak havoc. What is this kindergarten?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Something i'd do? No, i believe i'm more mature than that... But as you've said some people would probably do that if the idea was to be implented. One of the reasons it's so stupid.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    How is it discrimination if you are allowed to go into whatever server you wish?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Are you joking me? You just said and i quote 'Does the idea of having a few worlds designated for older players bother you so much?'. So yes, having a few servers for only older people would be discriminating. I'm sure you're aware of something called Ageism? If not, look it up. Might do you some good.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    And reasons?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    1. Discriminating.

     

     

     

    2. Wouldn't help as immature people would be on 'mature' servers and non-mature. Wouldn't that nullify the whole idea of having a server just for older and more 'mature' people?

     

     

     

    3. If i'm not mistaken Jagex aims to have as many people as possible, and reserving a few or even one server for just a very small minority would probably not be on their agenda.

     

     

     

    4. Not all older players would want this of course (actually very few people if my assumptions are correct) so i don't see why this should be done just for you. Might as well ask for a server only for Swedish players (a lot more Swedes than older people i might add)

  9. That's a very good point. I completely agree with you. I know splitting worlds into age groups is not the ultimate solution, but its a solution. You can't really say something like "if you believe you are mature enough then go into this world", therefore using age is the second best thing. Granted there are immature adults, I do entertain the idea that 900 older players can act more mature than 900 younger players.

     

     

     

    And I really think the system would filer itself out from the older immature players. They may find the game boring to play in their own age groups and move down to the younger ones. Or, in the better case scenario, being surrounded by more mature players they may start acting mature themselves, both in game and real life. Everybody wins. :)

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    A solution? Solution to the fact that some older players want their own servers? If they really are so concerned about the immaturity of younger people, perhaps they should turn their eyes on games that's main audience is male 14-25s, eh?

     

     

     

    And no, the system you propose wouldn't offer an 'escape' from immaturity, i fear it would actually be the complete opposite that immature people would siege against the older servers. And Jagex might not be willing to put up money to get new servers or reserve the current servers for a certain age group. It is discrimination no matter how you look at it.

  10. AMazeOfDeath:

     

     

     

    Immaturity has nothing to do with age. There are many mature young people and many immature older people and i can't see any other reason to have this divition between gamers besides the notion some people entertain that younger people are immature.

     

     

     

    Anyone who thinks that needs some serious growing up.

  11. The age seperation is the stupidest idea i've heard in quite a while. It's even worse than the automatic kitten patter...

     

     

     

    This game is for all ages and why discriminate people just because of their age?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Besides, there IS a lot of older players out there. I knew a high level, Biffa (or something along those lines anyway) that was around 45 and female, and lived quite near me so don't see what the issue about age is.
