What is wrong with Pures?

Recommended Posts

i dont mind losing to a pure, if its in an even fight.

 

 

 

in fight pits, there was a lv 79 with ice barrage. he was a pure. i fought him and lost, because he was better. he wasnt stuck up. maybe ill win next time

 

 

 

i DONT like pure when they act like they are so much better than everyone. i have a pure, and i did mining and wcing to make money on it. i dont drop trade on it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

pures are fine so long as they play by the rules

I'm gonna be walking down an alley in varrock, and walka is going to walk up to me in a trench coat and say "psst.. hey man, wanna buy some sara brew"

walka92- retired with 99 in attack, strength, defence, health, magic, ranged, prayer and herblore and 137 combat. some day i may return to claim 138 combat, but alas, that time has not yet come

you don't see the point. how did you get the stats to pk or stake? by drop trading materials.
This is my first RS2 Account. So I have never Drop-traded.

 

 

 

you cannot call me a coward for wearing armor, jagex made it so you could wear it.

 

JAGeX also made it so I can not wear Armour, and not Train Defence, did they not?

 

 

 

yes you are cowards for not wanting to fight on a lvl 80 account with 72 strength, if you actually fought with it anyway you would realise you do way higher damage than most people your lvl.
How does that make me a Coward? I ENJOY hitting 29s at 68 Combat. Do you enjoy hitting.. What? 20s?

 

 

 

i myself have 55 strength at cb 77, but even when i had 55 strength, 40 att, and 40 def in f2p i didn't pk. i don't try to take other peoples things to make money, it's basically the same as robbery.
The same as robbery! LMAO! I'm not even going to argue this. LMao... the same as Robbery..

 

 

 

with pures you have no chance oof losing except against another pure, and you won't get anything goood from them because they are too cowardly to lose their things, so they protect it.
A level 68 with 60 Attack, 62 Strength, hit's 24s with Dragon Scimitar. So while they are wailing on me with 10s-20s I am scratching their armour with 0s-10s. Their Defence for them is my Strength for me.

 

 

 

that's another example of pure cowardice, the only valuable item you can get is their weapon, and they use protect for it.
Uhhh. Yeah. I drop 150K when I die, Rune legs + Zerker Helm + DD = 150k? Even? Assuming I was an average Pure with 25+ Prayer, if I die I lose 50K, now unless you assume I hit constant 25s on your Full Rune, I have a pretty slim chance of winning.

I'm not against pures as a character or way to play this game, I'm against the ideology of combat-based pures.

 

 

 

I have a couple of pures, one of which is a ranger, the other is a warrior. Whenever my main account runs out of membership, or I just don't feel like training a skill, I usually hop onto one of these accounts to take out some frustration. My melee pure is a "black-armor" pure, but every time I start fighting I hear 'def noob' insults hurled at me. Also, the abject way that I PK is insulted as well, being considered a "safer". So what if I don't want to be K.Oed out there?

 

 

 

Amongst other things, there are pures which are dishonest. Some that I converse with in either Varrock or Edgeville wild have openly admitted to drop trading and I've reported them as such.

 

 

 

The pures that are members (mine are not and I don't ever plan on them becoming any) are probably twice as worse since now they have access to the forums and members' updates. On top of this, they complain when Jagex is anti-pure -- in other words, an update that either applies to non-pures, or one that makes combat slightly harder.

 

 

 

Sorry for rambling, but the overall point is that I'm not anti-pure, but I sure as hell do hate their ideology.

I know vly <3

 

 

 

Anyway, pures are great ways to spend time. They are also a good way to pk when you cant due to you loosing less if you die, and being able to pk in a different area and level.

 

 

 

Tip.it is a community that is fixated on skilling, most pures get discouraged to post here due to a low total level and this communities dislike of pking.

I'm usually not bothered by pures, because I use Protect from Melee when fighting them. I defeated a 70 with 98 strength and 1 defence easily by just using prayer.

 

The pures I have problems with are the pures who try to pretend they're not pures. You know, that level 56 who looks innocent enough just standing there with no armor on. That is, he looks innocent until you walk by and get Ice Blitzed.

 

That, and I don't like pures who get angry at other players who have Defence levels. That's the only pure I get angry about. And those are usually the pures that lose, so, I guess it's all good.

I've always found it funny how people continue to stereotype a person based on his/her style of gameplay. It's just as bad as saying you "Hate" a person because they trained their character differently than you.

 

 

 

It makes no sense. :-k

Like Wakka said its not that people hate the idea of a pure charachter its just that most pures are [wagon].

 

 

 

Edit: at 77 strength the best i can hit with a whip is 22, this has worried me for a while, should i be hitting higher? because it would appear everyone else is. An unpotted, unpraying guy with str lvl of 68 hit a 22 and when i said that was my best hit ever he laughed.

Which is nothing more than a negative stereotype. It's the same as calling all low levels noobs and all high levels no-lifers.

have you met a well-mannered pure besides on tif? no. it's not a stereotype, it's a generalization. there's a difference. stereotypes usually aren't true. generalizations are true for most people.

I just dont like em because I just dont get the concept of being pure...

 

 

 

You a paying $5 a month (or euros, whatever) to train maybe 2 skills. It makes more sense to train everything and become awsome at all skills except farming, because farming sucks... :wall:

*Looks at his list*

 

 

 

Yes, I have met quite a few well-mannered pures. Simply because you haven't doesn't mean they don't exist. The way a person trains their character isn't going to determine their in-game behavior. In fact, you're more likely to run into a rude and immature impure than you are a pure, as there are far more impures than pures (Of course, no one really ever takes this into account).

 

 

 

Anywho, neither stereotypes nor generalizations are usually try, as they're usually oversimplified (Or overexaggerated) statements used to character most or all of a group when, in fact, it more adequately depicts only a small fraction.

 

 

 

If most/all pures are rude then most/all low levels are noobs, most/all high levels are no-lifers and most/all level 3's are macros.

Pures are 95% of the time good people. If half the people here met them on their mains they would be friends, but since they met them on pures they instantly thought lower of them.

Assuming a pure is a [puncture] because all the pures ive met have been [puncture]s is not me being mean, its me being prudent.

you've met, what 5? well mannered pures am i correct? about 1/6 of runescape accounts that are not banned or macroers are pures. that's about 500000 pures, let's say half of these are a second pure created by someone. so you have about 375k people with pures. if your friendss list was full with these that would make 200 well mannered pures, plus probably 300 more. thats 0.13333333% of all pures who are well mannered. you cannot apply that to anyone else, because most high leveled people have been playing for more than 3 years, even if they played 3 hours a day which isn't nolifing, that's almost 1000 hours. if they no lifed, they would probably all have over 10 99s. most level 3s nowadays are macroers, there are few skillers that lvl, they usually raise it to avoid being macro reported, and most new people think raising combat is the only way to go. you're taking statements completely out of nowhere, while pures being rude is generally accepted, and has been out there for a long time.

every pure i have ever met has either

 

 

 

a. called me a nerd for being more powerful than them or

 

 

 

b. said i was a complete noob because i disagreed with them on a small thing, such as how hard it is to raise lvls after a certain point.

+1 to the guy who fight pures with pray

 

 

 

its their own fault to not have pray just because it takes few more cmb level. half damage suite them well. Lol Thats the reason I don't like pure, because when you fight using their weakness, aka praying, u start to get hit by flame and name calling. To be honest, since name calling does 0 damage, I don't really care for it.

that happened to me once. i was fighting some pure in the duel arena using prayer. he kept switching from red chins to dds, so i kept on switching prays. he said noob stop using pray. so i fought him again no pray. he said nerd, i bet you can't beat me by my rules. his rules were no pray and no armor. i beat him. he calls me a nerd. i go to craft a round of fire runes, when i come back he calls me a nerd, challenges me again by his different rules, and when i said i already beat him 3 times, he acted like it never happened. that's what i usually encounter in a pure, that level of rudeness. some just ignore me because we don't agree on somehing, but i don't have a problem with them because they put me on ignore instead of flaming me, that's the right thing to do.

Lmao @ you thinking that he only knows 5 Pures. Chances are he knows 15-30+.

 

 

 

I know 63 respectful Pures. Your views are completely skewed because you most likely died to a Pure.

Who ever said I hated pures? One of my first, and remaining best friends in runescape has a main lvl 90, a pure 85+, and a skiller pure. Kinda stereotyping tif users to be honest. I've died in the wilderness before, probably by a magic pure multiple times, I shrug it off, its just a game and player killing is just another part of it.

 

 

 

They don't make pures my level anymore though. :lol:

I have seen plenty of pures, in fact, its the ones that go past the boring training of pures who get famous. There are plenty of pures, in fact, 2 of them are named on the very first post. And i know one of them. They are still pure (Except for vly, he has 2 def due to a mistake :P) and if they are not, its not because they decided to go non-pure.
