brunokiller Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 This rant is utterly pointless... -.- I mean, really who cares? Your input is utterly pointless... -.- I mean, really who cares? On topic; This update is long over-due. Many players have fallen subject to scams and been unable to report them because their name consists of both O's and 0's If you actually read the topic, you know it's about the slashed 0 in inventory/hits etc. And, the 0 s in names got slashed years ago...

Makoto_the_Phoenix Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Was there any reason to change the other numerical value 0's? NO! That was possibly the most pointless update ever to tell the truth. It has looked the same way for like 5 years? Why change it? Jagex mise well just fill in the rest of the zero -.- Now all of my even stats look demented. We carp and carp about how this update makes something look ugly when there's no real point to it. Give it a a few more days and you'll be used to it; give it 2 weeks and you won't care anymore. Is there any reason to complain about how a zero looks instead of going about your business? No. Besides, if you can't accept a little change, perhaps you shouldn't be playing, considering how often this game changes.

jondea0 Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 they look dumb but i think they serve thier perpose so its fine. the 0s with lines on are now on what you get hit and on your stats which looks stupid (might just be and imediate thing) and they stop confusing? you only get hit numbers and skills only have numbers for skills so i think it is uneccesary (sos bout spelling) discuss a combat reformation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppyKing Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I really dont care that much, but if I had to choose, I would go back the old 0s. Blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutycalls5609 Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 It's been like that since 06 hasn't it? I could've sworn... Cause I logged in once and was happy it was harder to trick people with the name so it'd cut down on scammers. Did some whiny noob get them to change it back and now it's back to the way it should be? If you believe you came from monkeys, you probably did.

blakdragon39 Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I noticed them right away too :P. But I, unlike you, really liked them. They look way better, and stop a lot of confusion in some cases. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unkn0wnwarrior Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Looks fine to me, but I sense Jagex has just caused what the are trying to avoid... Anyone else think that this may give birth to a new scam - switching an 8 for a 0 in the trade screen...I'am sure that Jagex changed this for the more "stupid" players, but in the end it will be the "stupid" players that loose out. The irony.The new 0s look nothing like an 8... It's been like that since 06 hasn't it? I could've sworn... Cause I logged in once and was happy it was harder to trick people with the name so it'd cut down on scammers. Did some whiny noob get them to change it back and now it's back to the way it should be?The ones in the names have been that way since then, but the ones in the stats page, damage splashes and inventory/bank have now been changed to match.

Freesia Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 It really is not that much of a trouble to change a zero for Jagex. I believe you have wasted your time complaining about how Jagex wasted their time. Just adapt with it. :roll: Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

dargonhuman Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 Everyone keeps (wrongly) bringing up scammers names and other inane reasons for this update, but has anyone stopped to think that maybe all Jagex did was delete the old alphanumeric table that had un-dashed 0's? What I mean is, maybe they had two seperate alphabet sets, one for account names/chat and one for everything else. If that's true, then this update most likely is the result of them putting all on-screen text on the same alphabet set to delete the old one. Just a thought. Part of the Star Traks network.

zostar2 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 tbh.. for me it doesn't really effect the game. It's useful for clan chat because O and 0 used to be exactly the same and got confusing sometimes.
