  1. Beta openings for World of Warcraft - Cataclysm. They deserve a week off regardless.
  2. That's the problem. If Jagex insist on giving people who attended the event an in-game item to identify themselves with, does it the proper way, people would be more understanding of the symbolism of the item. Right now we have someone who would pay just for the item without going to the event, and some who would get the item off another person who purchase the ticket. That's why it's not fair. It's not because 'life's not fair'. <_< You don't even get the gist of the argument. I get it just fine. People have no morals or ethics. I realize that. if people could purchase the ticket through their Jagex accounts instead of TM, they could just directly input the item into the user's account/
  3. As far as i've understood, there will be given out exclusive goody bags to everyone when they enter. Well im just going off Qelters post for this, but you are able to redeem the code for the banner upon buying the ticket right? Yes. I managed to catch Mod Mark H on the recent updates board just now, and he does agree that the lack of prevention is something that was overlooked. People can redeem the code and not attend the event, and nothing's stopping them from passing the code to another player either. I suspect that if there's another runefest in 2011, Jagex would still give out a new flagstaff to keep up with the tradition, but take more precaution to let only the people who attend the event have it. They should just give you a code to redeem a flag AFTER RuneFest and then make sure your Runescape account is the one linked to the redemption code. ________________________________________________ No, it's an item to say you had $125 to blow. Whether you are there or not is immaterial: send them the money, they give you the item. That is not Jagex's intention. It is people abusing something. You were probably one of those kids who complained at school when someone ruined something for everyone. Expressing concerns or issues about something is not inherently whining, when those concerns are expressed in a rational and reasonable manner. Again, it is not about the specific item, it is about the principles involved. I personally not only don't want one of these, I don't usually even do holiday events. I just think this was a very bad idea because of what it is doing to the community, and the "do as I say, not as I do" message it sends. Perpetually complaining about others getting an item is whining. You are trying to find something to argue about aren't you? THERE IS NO BLOODY MOTIVE BEHIND JAGEX GIVING A DAMNED FLAG TO PLAYERS WHO WISH TO ATTEND/ATTEND/BUY TICKETS FOR RUNEFEST. GET THAT IN YOUR HEAD. They are just trying to show a gesture of kindness. You must not get many kind gestures. You can have an e-hug from me if you wish. Then why can't everyone have it? Because life isn't fair. Why can;t everyone have over ~90 billion dollars like Bill Gates? Why can't everyone have a girlfriend who looks like Megan Fox? Why is the sky blue? Why am I stupid enough to reply to your posts when you dispute everything that is not part of your ideology?
  4. I like the content aware feature. This will allot for some fun times :).
  5. One huge difference, you can buy this one. All I have to do is go pay for a RuneFest ticket and they email me the redemption code. I don't even have to go. That is your decision. You are buying the ticket for non-intended reasons. It is not Jagex's intention to sell the ticket just so players get an item, it is you players buying the ticket for the item.

    Today...

    Another oil pipe!?!?!??
  7. So if someone buys a shirt from the store and gets a code, they get it in game? You confuse me.
  8. Congrats, you guys deserve it! Is it just me or are the current admins using their labs and cloning people to be mods and admins?
  9. That explains why they dont use them in war of legends... ..oh wait. Jagex did not create War of Legends, they are just publishing it for another company. The company probably wanted a micro transaction system. Also, to those who says "This is unfair because some people can't afford to go!", GET A FREAKING JOB. Its not your finances, its your indolence. If you wanted to go, you would work hard to go. No one is going to hand you a ticket. OT: I wonder what the item would be. A cape with a disco fever emote would be BA. I am under the legal working age! <_< Age doesn't mean anything. Its pure will. When I was 13 I made over 800 USD selling pop and candy at school. If you are like 14, you can mow laws or get a paper route.
  10. It wouldn't be as complex as it seems. You would have to transform voice data into bytes then send an encapsulated UDP (TCP increases latency due to checking if the packet arrives) packet through your ISP over the web to Jagex's servers. Jagex's servers would then have to retransmit the packet to all connected clients which will need to transform the bytes into voice. If they run the voice system on separate servers, they can add a simple connection button. If connected to the voice server, users may experience a slight lag difference. If the user does not choose to connect to a voice server, they won;t notice a difference.
  11. Main PC specs: Ram: 4gb ddr2 800Mhz Graphics: Nvidia 9800 GTX+ CPU: AMD Phenom X4 @ 3.0 Ghz MB - Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 [hide=pics] General Area: View of computer from chair: Inside of computer (large image) : (This was dusted out two days ago) [/hide]
  12. Thank you for clearing that up for us all. Now, can you direct me to instructions for getting the item without paying any money? At this point, I'd even settle for a micropayment. Take your time. You can get it by going to your mum ,asking for a baby bottle, sucking on the nip, and get over it. Just because you want to be belligerent about a simple item just to be argumentative, you need to get help. It is the same exact thing as going to a concert and getting a free-tshirt. You payed to go to the concert and have fun with other fans of the band , not to get the tshirt. Just remember this: Its a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake. (You can do what Danqazmlp said too. What ever floats your boat.)
  13. Dear qeltar, Please quit trying to make something out of something that isn't there. You are making a simple banner reward discussion into a oil spill war. Your pal, bballer
  14. If you wish to be picky, then paying for membership is money for pixels. As well as paying for power to run a computer (which you bought) with internet access (which you bought and/or stole from neighbors wifi) to play the game.
  15. Its almost expected to gain an in game item form visiting a convention from its creators. People were already speculating players will gain an item before Jagex even stated they would reward attendees with an item. Not everyone is not out to make a cheap buck. Jagex is trying to at least break even. I would like to see you put 10 grand ( I know its probably more for Jagex) of your money into a convention and lose most off it without PMSing.
  16. People need to chillax. This is just a "thank you" for attending RuneFest. It is not a utilitarian item. It is just for looks.
  17. They said it is in central London. There can only be so many locations they can use. They gave enough general information. At least they didn't state "Somewhere in England".
  18. That explains why they dont use them in war of legends... ..oh wait. Jagex did not create War of Legends, they are just publishing it for another company. The company probably wanted a micro transaction system. Also, to those who says "This is unfair because some people can't afford to go!", GET A FREAKING JOB.

A cape with a disco fever emote would be BA.
  19. I was stuck on some code in a game I am working on. I tried lucid dreaming and I was able to control my dream where I could do some coding. In my dream I attempted something and it worked. I did the same thing after I woke up at 3:00AM and it worked as well. I read that Einstien developed his relativity theory through similar activities.
  20. A girl in a barrel. jk I would love to have High alchemy, teleports, superheat, and ghostly robes.

    Today...

    It's not great over here either man. My cousin over there said he can get me a job as a computer technician for the company he owns in London. I worked at Best Buy up until I got layed off last week. I like London, I was born there in fact. Hopefully I will get a job there.
  22. Why in the hell are people talking about Rune fest in this thread? There is another thread for that discussion. 24-Apr-2010 - Jagex Presents... RuneFest 2010 Please use that instead of spamming this topic up. Now, onto the topic itself: I am not currently a member so I can;t really give my opinion on the thieving update.
