Why does Jagex dislike pures ? do they?

[silver24-7]

yeah jagex hates pures i mean how lame is it that they cant wear dragon armour at 1 defense, i swear normal players are way too over powered[/sarcasm]

 

 

 

:XD:

 

 

 

ohw and blouinator I completely agree with you, yet they mention that pures are ase said before "against the spirit of the game" I really don't get this :/

 

 

 

And freesia, why would I want to prove an update where they discriminated against pures ? :S would be easy to find one, a barrows weapons requiring def ie. but that wasn't the point, I said they didn't like them, not that they were actively trying to discriminate them.

 

 

 

Or are they maybe just acting as if, to keep some mains happy and not complaining while they rake in other peoples pures $$$ ? that might actually be a reason :o

I don't know why everyone thinks Jagex hates pures.

 

 

 

If you don't have 60 attack, you can't use Dragon Weapons. Why should Jagex release updates for 1 defense characters? If you want to use good armour, get the requirement for it! The POINT of one defense is that you lose the ability to wear armour!

I'm going to update the main post to make this clear to everyone.

 

I am NOT saying that jagex discriminates pures because they can't wear armor etc. but because they feel it's not in the spirit of the game and make nasty comments about them.

 

 

 

And then I'm wondering why they aren't actually supporting pures, heck, they support new little 6yr olds because they pay, why not support pures because they pay as well :S

 

 

 

AND ONCE AGAIN I'M NOT SAYING THEY SHOULD, just wondering why they aren't.

 

 

 

geez :S

[mrmyk]

i hope jagex does..although pc is something that helps pures so we cannot be sure

[Overflow_C]

Most pures expect their pure to beat everyone else.

 

And why they die, they complain and point the blame on Jagex.

 

 

 

I know i am stereotyping pures, but its true.

[maxdout4life]

humph....

 

 

 

iam pure now this is my only account my other got hacked....

 

 

 

y would jagex hate us? cause we own to much?cause we drop trade?i cant even this is my only account -.-

 

 

 

jagex just cant stand that nearly every pure under 70cb ownz a main....

[Plod2]

I think they want defence to be a better skill, they hope pures of the future will have defence levels above 1.

[baron8000]

 

y would jagex hate us?

 

 

 

Well im irritated enough already at your use of y for why and z for s but that's another story.

 

 

 

I recently heard somebody suggest that if combat level was calculated by exp rather than base levels there would be no such thing as a pure - i.e 5 million exp makes a level 70 (just picking numbers out of the air here) regardless of if its just in strength or spread equally amongst the statistics.

 

 

 

As to hating pures, I really couldn't care less as I don't go into the wild much so they little chance to get me 8-) so if I can continue the phrase I saw earlier - If you can't beat them, join them, or just stay really far away from them :wink:

[jwrm22]

my second account: amon salud is 93 str... thats alot i can hit high but there is no way i can beat full guthan with it... :(

thats for sure XD But the fact is most people have 70 or even 80 defence, and go pking in rune, or dhides, or even worse, I've seen mains pking in robes. And then a pure can just own them anytime. :P And it isn't their fault people don't use their defensive skills to the max. It's not like pures are getting 90 attack to hold a whip, or 70 to hold a dlong, no, they get the minimum attack lvl they need to hold the weapon they pk with :P and yes, they are indeed stronger in wildy because they are created for the wildy, I don't think jagex should be against creating an account for pking :S

[doomy]

Yes, i believe Jagex believe pures ruin the game a little, as the pking world is dominated by them.

 

If they hated them so much though, they'd make def alot better.

[darkb0wzer]

The best defence is a good offence and the best offence is a good defence. #-o

ya pures suck! jking

 

 

 

That's not a joke btw. Pures do suck.

 

 

 

Doesn't jagex only hate the pures that drop trade? I remember hearing that somewhere.

 

 

 

+1 They do and some pures try to act tough which really makes me mad

[mikeb912]

Pures don't get certain features because they don't train certain skills, and then rant about how it's unfair. I get called a def noob, and how it's soo much better to have defence, yet they don't train it.

 

 

 

+1 and I only have 50 def and I get called a def pure while wearing a chicken suit in lv 40 wild by someone 20 levels higher than me and wearing full rune.

That is false. Pures can beat you in a duel, right? That's why they suck? They can kill you? K..

 

 

 

 

 

I find pures a lot of fun because the PKing is easier

[Death_Dude74]

Well, many times we can notice how jagex does things to bother pures, or just shows some sort of dislike to pures in their game.

 

But I was wondering why they do this? Pures are usually second accounts of paying members, people who make pures don't often stop paying for their main, and some people even make 3 or even more accounts to have all different kinds of pure, AND pay membership for all of them.

 

So what I was wondering, if jagex makes so many chances to attract new members, why not promote making pures? They would double their amount of members if everyone would make at least 1 pure.

 

 

 

Discuss if you have any idea what they really have got against pures, or if we are really just imagining them to?

 

 

 

How do you figure? I have a pure that I would never even consider making a member.

 

 

 

Anyway, I think that Jagex likes pures and sees it as a way of emergent gameplay.

 

 

 

srry that had to say at least 1 paying pure, I'm off to correct that.

 

 

 

well we've seen through time that jagex at least show disliking to pures "not being in the spirit of the game".

 

 

 

and qeltar, come on, you really think jagex can change their combat formula right now? :shame:

 

 

 

sniper, I agree they don't have to support pures, but them being "deceptive" isn't really true, they have more attacking ability then cb lvl shows, but a lot less defensive skills then cb lvl shows, and even it they were deceptive, people would know how to recognize a pure and its stats by now.

 

 

 

Just to remind you guys,

 

 

 

A)Jagex can't really say anything but "We don't feel its in the spirit of the game." If they approve, people rant. If they disapprove, people rant. If they support, people rant.

 

 

 

i)Jagex has narrowed down a few things that are "Not in the spirit of the game."

 

a)Using a MouseKeys to alch

 

b)Using the invisible safespots against barrows

 

c)Deceiving people when trading

 

B)Jagex gets $$ when people, free and member, play.

 

a)Thus, Jagex tries to be like a good politician. They don't interfere when unnecessary, and they attempt to make everyone happy. Thus more people play, more $$ and more $$ potential.

 

 

 

I wouldn't say they discriminate, what they do is rather logical, without too much pain one way or the other.
