Oh come on.. It just makes news and updates fun to read. And besides, it wouldn't be JaGeX if they didn't have this silly side to them. :P

We Brits pride ourselves on our sense of humour (yes, it is spelt HUMOUR, NOT HUMOR! WHO INVENTED THE LANGUAGE HUH? WE DID! SO SPELL IT OUR WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohnoes: thank you)

 

 

 

I like the way Jagex is using humour. So long as they don't use a joke machine next...

 

 

 

A pun or two is fine in an update, but 23 in one... not humorous.

I think it is pretty witty. I honestly don't have a problem with it. I mean, if you do have a problem with it, you could just not read them ;).

 

 

 

This is how they could do their updates from now on.

I'm english just so you know but the americans actually use a language closer to what we "created". Where we have added 'U's that the americans don't have derives from the fact that the language we speak no is largely a compendium of earlier languages. Losing the 'U' is closer to forms of archiac english.

 

 

 

lesson over now on topic.

 

 

 

I love the Jagex humour, livens up the website for us and i bet it makes there workplace more fun trying to think of as many as they can.

I think it's funny because the puns sooo lame. I love all of their funny examines and articles. I dont remember who said it, but i also laughed hard when they changed the gs icon and said, "Try to contain your excitement." I spose it does make the game more interesting.

I like them.

 

They can be so cheesy that they are good. :P

P2P offers more and better ways of making money than f2p. That's one of the cons you just have to play with if you don't feel like having 1 bigmac meal less per month.

I'm gessing this is what you want:

 

 

 

 

 

Hey, players, we redid the birds. Check 'em out. Or not. What do I care.

 

 

 

or:

 

 

 

The birds have been redone.

 

 

 

Plus this is a rant, and it goes there.

i like a bad pun as much as the next guy, but jagex goes over the top with it sometimes. If there isn't at least one dumb joke in a quest, it's not a runescape quest :? the updates i don't mind so much, but still, so many puns in that one article? it annoyed me too

And once again the English, which is also a derivative (or butchering in your own logic) of another language, continue to pull the hypocritical "Americans butcher our language"

A few of those aren't puns though silly rabbit.

 

 

 

They're just puns, live with it, stop complaining?

It's jokes like that that make me want to keep playing... I think they're brilliant.

 

 

 

Or, as one of my mates would say: "They're so punny!" #-o

It's not that I don't like those jokes, I love 'em! But I wouldn't really mind if they didn't put in any jokes.

 

 

 

P.S.

 

If they didn't have the jokes it'd look like this:

 

Hi, today we updated the graphic looks of birds, you should log in and check their new looks.

 

 

 

Even though it's boring I really wouldn't mind if it was like this (thought I prefer the jokes =D> ).

I see RuneScape slowly turning into a sadistic version of WoW.

Jagex sits in front of computers all day being nerdy... of course they have a strange sence of humor. Personally I like the puns, they're funny. :thumbsup:

No need to crow about this all day long. We need to appreciate Jagex and not ostrichize them.
