What Jagex Rule would you Remove

[OldDucky]

:shame: Shame on you! All Jagex rules are here for reasons. No Rule is unfair, They are here to protect us. Complaining About rules of Jagex is like Acting like a complete maniac In Real Life. Think about It...

If what I've been hearing is true, then Rule 12 by far. Woot, Armadyl Hilt, 55m split for 2 people. BANNED for rl trading. Some guy quit and gave like 50m to a friend, BANNED for rl trading. If that doesn't happen then rule 12 is fair, but if it does, then I officially hate Jagex :x.

 

No...that doesn't happen. For Heaven's sake man, if we removed rule 12 then EVERYBODY would be goldfarming/macroing!

 

Your examples don't have to do with real life trading at all. It would only be wrong if you sold that bandos hilt for 200 bucks, or if you sold that 50m instead of giving it away.

 

There's a pretty thick line between giving gifts and selling for profit. Thus, rule 12 is not only fair, its necessary.

The rule that got my first acc banned :( but then again if everyone goes around asking for passwords that would be bad :D

Censor...

 

Wasn't this game made for 13 year olds, not 6 year old kids.

[dargonhuman]

 

 

 

I want to curse i'm 13+

 

They should have you put in a valid CC number (even if you aren't members) to prove that you have your parent's concent and permission to play.

 

 

 

That way no bots would be made, no little kiddies would play..

 

Two reasons why that's a bad idea; 1) too easy to get around. Kids are smart these days; they can wait until mommy and/or daddy are distracted or gone, get their cc and do it themselves.

 

2)That would be completely unfair to the adults who want to play, but don't have access to a cc and can't get their own.

 

There's absolutely no justifiable reason someone should need a cc to play a free game.

 

Back on topic, the third-party software rule is a bit harsh, I think, but the others do make sense when the big picture is taken into account.

[kallenkootx]

i think rule 1 is taken too strictly

 

 

 

censoring everything is just exagorated, if u cant handle such language then u should have a chat filter on/off option. also reporting for this rule is goin unfair, if someone sees crap, dam or any other word like that, even sarcasm someone gets reported and blackmarked/banned.

 

people just happily forget the reason why someone uses such language, if its really offensive, then its ok to report, but if someone e.g. gets scammed and flips out for a moment should be acceptable.

 

talking to reallife friends shouldnt be obstructed by stupid filters and wanna be mods that report on everything.

 

 

 

thats why i also think the personal detail rule stinks a bit, if u talk to a real life friend u should be allowed to talk about subjects other than runescape too, there better things than runescape to talk about (omfg).

 

 

 

and the multiple log in rule is also enforced unfairly, banning someone for givin/acceptin free money is not a unfair advantage, its not against the rules, but jagex auto concludes its multiple logging in or money bought with reallife money. same if u trade to a reletive, in ur own house.

 

 

 

further the rules are ok, but theyre just not enforced honestly, thats why i think jagex sucks. they just ban for everything they shouldnt and let real culprits get away with it. like someone gets scammed for lets say 1 mil and flips out, he gets deemed 'to not fit in the game socially', but like a scammer does fit in

[Tonis]

Why can't you trade stuff between characters? Not to gain an unfair advantage? Are gifts from friends unfair advantages, should gifts be banned?

Actually making gifts is allowed. As well as drop trading between different persons' accounts (ec. when there's one PC in family and they can't log in at the same time to trade). Another thing how you prove you made a gift to someone or how Jagex proves something else.

 

 

 

Also in my opinion, rule 1 should be more strict in some points. As I'm absolutely sure that most people don't want to hear (see) offenses around them all the time and also don't think that avoiding offenses is there only to prevent under 13 years old ones from seeing it and don't think they are cool or like more to themselves and others when their language is offensive.

 

 

 

To me, all rules are understandable.

[Tbfgraphx14]

It's not the rules that suck, it's how strict they are with them. They are all needed, but you don't need to be banned for having a censored name and such.

 

 

 

And for the censor, we brought it on ourselves :roll:

[justcallmedaddy]

the rule about drop trading. you earned it, not like you cheated.

[axeraider194]

Personal details.

[Gravy]

They're all pretty good. :)

 

 

 

I mean, they're doing us ok for now, aren't they?

[Norton3000]

The advertisment and offensive language rules are the worst. For example you could get banned for saying 'Tip.It' on the tipitchat. In theory you could get banned for everything if a wbm happens to be there when you say something...

[Da Pirates]

11, The website one.. IT PERM MUTED ME! (Fansites included)

[Triforceelf]

I think JagEx is a wee bit to paranoid. They are like an overprotective parent who would never let anyone near their baby. its time for them to see that RS is all grown up and can play with the big boys. They should take a chapter out of Blizzards book and have "certified" fansites that they support since it adds to their player base and give players a good idea of what sites do and do not support illicit activity.

[jwrm22]

jagex is allowed to be unfair... its theire game...

[Triforceelf]

It is JagEx's game, and they can do whatever they please, but it would be smart to have a little more community support. Their forums are not the be all end all of RS communtiy. They suck rather badly actually.

[goldbaloney]

i hate the sensor rule

 

 

 

Heres words we should be able to say

 

 

 

crap

 

damn

 

[wagon]

 

turd

 

poop

[sonerohi]

[hide=kuh-lickeh har] they need to kill the censor, and add mics. then wait until the pre - pubescent children start screaming in their whiny voices and insta ip ban them. [/hide]

[firsttsurugi]

rule 1

 

 

 

it's for 13+ people, and if there are 12- people, guess what, they are already in violation, and i've been cursing since 3rd grade.

[daerrorz]

i think caharters should be all naked

[snake6man]

not being able to say "sucks." iv had to say "thats a bummer" instead of "thats sucks" and I think it makes me look way to much like a grandma :(

[Aristofiles]

agree... the chat filter is way out of line, the next time i get cencored for saying bra! (swedish for good) i will go bezerk

[Fresi]

agree... the chat filter is way out of line, the next time i get cencored for saying bra! (swedish for good) i will go bezerk

 

 

 

this is a common problem whit it, I'm my self a swedish speaking Finn and do some times talk whit friends in swedish, however we have now begun communicating in English as swedish is pretty much censored and it can take some time to get the message,

 

 

 

det gÃÆÃâÃâÃÂ¥r ju bra =) = det gÃÆÃâÃâÃÂ¥r ju *** =)

 

same in english:

 

its going good =) = its going **** =)

 

 

 

but i don't want to kill the censors for that, because its really not nice when someone starts cursing and screaming as if that would make me change my mind about something, it would make me angrier and maby quit the game, ty jagex for a curs free game but do lock up some things as the word "bra" :

[doomy]

Trading between accounts.

Chat Filter :( I messaged them about the chat filter and got this:

 

 

 

For the in-game chat filter, I think you need to tone it down a bit. I don't think any 13+ years old will care if you say crap. At my school, people swear all the time. And while you shouldn't be able to swear, crap, and sucks, are not bad words.

Hello Iamalwayssto,

 

 

 

Thank you for your question regarding the chat filter.

 

 

 

Unfortunately our Chat Filter sometimes censors words that aren't offensive themselves, but contain portions of potentially offensive words.

 

 

 

There is little we can do about this as we need to make sure that our players are protected from offensive and abusive language and we are sure that you understand our need to do this. We are always working to update the filter and hope that we can continue to improve it.

 

 

 

If this word is genuinely non-offensive, then the best way for your to inform us of this is to make a post on the 'Rants about the Censor' sticky on the 'Rants' forum. This has been set up so that players can bring matters like this to our attention and hopefully have it solved by the relevant people.
