Tip.it Times Presents: Letters to the Editor #8


MPM

Recommended Posts

Lortek - great big huge congratulations on the skillcape :thumbsup:

 

I don't have one but I love doing quests so I will probably make it a goal eventually.

 

 

 

I can really identify with the issues raised in these articles. Although I've played for a long time, my stats are a lot lower than most of my friends' because I tend to take a lot of time off skilling or doing quests just to go exploring the world or doing useless things for fun.

Great Letters... but the following is a problem...

Did You Know...

 

... that free players can use the Shantay Pass bank chest? It's great for fishing along the desert river.

 

 

 

That "Shantay Chest" does not work on F2P. It never did in the past either. Someone needs to scold The Editor, or whoever manages those, about their mistake.

 

 

 

~Mr. Devnull

 

 

 

 

 

Maybe it works for members on a f2p server?Did you think about that ? I don't know though because I'm f2p... And somebody should scold the editor.

 

But, great letters!

 

 

 

 

It doesnt work for us in a f2p server, we (members) have benefits only in p2p servers, the only difference between us and f2pers in a f2p server is that we can wear members armour (but just for looking good, cause it doesnt raise your stats).

 

 

 

Btw, good letters, but i still prefer edtor`s articles or interviews, please change it back to how it was.

I 100% agree with these statements, nice articles both :XD:

 

 

 

I also agree that quest cape is THE achievement, to me it shows a lot more then a 99 what is for a big part just grinding and spending hours.

 

 

 

Very nice done: getting the cape!

Both were a great read. I laughed when I read the part about the friend being so apathetic about the writer achieving the quest cape. The same thing happened to me. So, I'm trying for a firecape now, perhaps that'll earn me a couple of 'wow!'s. Or, perhaps not.. :?

When I read the Editor's article, I kind if felt like something in it wasn't right. These letters filled the gap to a balanced thought about Runescape. The letter by Editor was too much on the "skilling ain't really that fun" side. So thanks a lot for these new letters! <3:

Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you. You want everything that's--falls off garbage can

Camera guy: Whoa, haha, are you okay dude?

Matt: You want anything funny that happens, don't you?

Camera guy: still laughing

Matt: You want the funny shit that happens here and there, you think it comes out of your [bleep]ing [wagon] pushes garbage can down, don't you? You think it's funny? It comes out of here! running towards Camera guy

Camera guy: runs away still laughing

Matt: You think the funny comes out of your mother[bleep]ing creativity? Comes out of Satan, mother[bleep]er! nn--ngh! pushes Camera guy down

Camera guy: Hoooholy [bleep]!

Matt: FUNNY ISN'T REAL! FUNNY ISN'T REAL!

Thanks for the new letters! But how come they were both written by the same person? Anyway, they were both worth reading, and if I hadn't seen the names at the bottom of the letters, I wouldn't have known they were written by the same guy.

 

 

 

I didn't write the first letter...only the second. I didn't expect them to publish a "chicken feather" either. lol. Though I have used this site and read articles for quite some time. Thanks Tip.It for reading my letter.

 

 

 

Thanks for submitting your letter though jp7725. It just goes to show how you don't need to be the strongest, richest or most accomplished player to contribute to other players' enjoyment of the game.

 

 

 

Regardless, I enjoyed reading it. It's a timely reminder to take time to relax and enjoy each of our individual achievements.

 

 

 

While it's great to share these moments in-game with friends, often one's own real life commitments, and the fact our in-game friends too have lives of their own means friends can't be there forever.

 

 

 

Once again we stand on the Well of Voyage surrounded by the remnants of our enemies. All our efforts bring us to these endings alone wondering when we'll next feel the excitement and wonder of the unknown and unimaginable dangers of the darkness surrounding us. Or when, or if, we'll ever see the light on waters of the River Lum again.

 

 

 

Regards,

 

 

 

Fey.
