ryanw4390 Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 The Bruce Springsteen Random Event Suggestion The Runescape Community has been in a downward slide now for well over two years, with an increase of macros and scamming. The reason? People are looking for the easiest possible way to make a living. The following suggestion is NOT a way to prevent any scam artists or macros, but a way to help them try and go down the right path after they've been caught. The First Step Picture yourself going into your private message center on the Runescape website and find a new message. It reads something along the lines of: "Your account has been reported for scamming on multiple occasions. However, because of your clean record before your scamming incidents, the Jagex Staff has given you one last chance to set yourself down the right path. You will be under the tutelage of the one and only Bruce Springsteen, the blue collar musician!" Logging In Once logging into the game, you find yourself in the home of the one and only Bruce Springsteen! Before you can even move, he begins a conversation (which you can't get out of btw) about the importance of earning on honest living like he did and waiting for your chance to make something of yourself. He will then give you a task which requires you to use one of your non combat skills, like mining or fishing. His tasks will make you get a certain amount of raw materials and return it to him. The raw material will be something you can gather and nothing that requires you to level up. The Dramatic Conclusion After gathering the raw materials, you must bring them to Bruce's home in western Varrock. In a shocking move, he turns down your offer to him, but instead he tells you to show him that you really changed. Confused at first, you try to find different ways to show him that you are a new man (or gal) through dancing, running around in circles, etc, but eventually right click on Bruce to find that you can showcase your "blue collar" to him! Once you do this, Bruce gives you a big hug and tells you that you truly are a blue collar citizen of Runescape, and after a few words of encouragement, allows you to go on your way in the world of Runescape. Why Bruce Springsteen? That's a very good question with a simple answer. This idea has been in my head for a long time. No, not improving Runescape through a do-good NPC, but adding Bruce Springsteen into Runescape. I think he is the perfect addition to Runescape, and now that I actually figured out a purpose for him I believe he will fit in nicely with the likes of King Roland, the Wizard Mizgog, Party Pete and the rest of the gang! - Ryan [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schmuall Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 I can see no idea that would have as much of an impact as this one. I 100% support :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: give F2P a penny and they want a dime; give P2P a quarter, they want 100,000 dollars, your car, house, boat, social security number, credit card numbers, drivers license, clothes on your back and everything you ever owned or interacted with ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green_Link Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 How unfortunate that Bruce Springsteen is a real person. Jagex can't use a real person in their game. Sorry, but that's the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omali Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 How unfortunate that Bruce Springsteen is a real person. Jagex can't use a real person in their game. Sorry, but that's the truth. Sure they can. They just have to jumble his name: Brian O' Richard = Richard O' Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeda45 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Just say "No!" to toads. Methinks perm IP ban works much better on rulebreakers than this. 'Bruce Springsteen"???i dont know who he is BAD IDEA!!! just use the generic do-gooder npc, please. IF this kind of update is used at all. Also, no blue collars. If you jump into a river in Paris, you're insane. If you jump into a river in Egypt, you're in denial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingtygy Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 ............. :| I'm not even sure if i could come up with a response for that. A bad thing about this is that people will break the rules just so that they can experience this. You say it wont happen, well, there are some people stupid enough to do it. Then, this would raise rulebreaking, and bruce springsteen's impatience. Then, he would go on a rampage, and destroy all of runescape. Nice.

Evil_Sabre Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 this could posslibly be the greatest idea yet. I mean some people say whips were the best update, or the clan chat, or ancient magicks, but im pretty sure this takes the cake with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsocam Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 fisrt this, then we need Chuck Norris to be the new super boss monster of RS (he can drop a beard!) i sorta like the idea, but not that it takes a real life person and brings it into the game. it should be with someone not from real life.

kemikalkadet Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 The is the best suggestion i've ever heard. i cant think of any reason why they wouldnt put it in the game, of course, he'd have to be called spring brucestein or something.. but that would be incredible.

How the hell would this make anything better?! Man i thought they would lock this like after anyone with brains noticed it was utterly and completely pointless... plus adding a real person to the game would provide legal issues. And unless bruce springsteen were to give permisison he cant go in.. btw, didnt he die?

I have read this whole topic about 5 times now, and everytime its proven to be very freaking stupid... I dont know why the hell you people support this. It might be because its so stupid. Or maybe cuz when it finally does happen (very,very,very,very unlikely) you would want to be of the supporters... and then you get to back and say to yourself and your friends, "Hey, I had something to do with that!". WAKE UP PEOPLE!!! This idea will never happen!, its to stupid and pointless.
