Tyrsbreath Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Ever sit around thinking """ man I miss the good old days, when the players loved us and appreciated what we made""" Serious I have seen more people complaining about how bad jagex is and always trying to screw them over, about how this is broke or that is broke. Cheating and how they do nothing about it..... ive played a few other games, guess what WOW has a very active and growing community of cheaters, Ultima Online completly infested with scripters and dupers that go un checked, Guild Wars yep cheaters. I have to say Jagex does a pretty good job of controling it in the least restrictive way for legit players. Anyone else remember a statement either paul or Andrew made just prior to members "we really don't want to charge anything but to keep developing the game and supporting it, we will have a members pay version???" my quote may not be exact but pretty close RS cost too much is another big complaint I hear all the time in game. COME ON its $5 per month go play WOW for $5 per month, your water bill is more than $5 per month and I guarntee most dont spend as much time at the tap as they do at the RS interface. Yeah I was a heavy critic of some of the things in the past, like mods that helped special people gain levels, Fatigue was a big one for me. I suspose since comming back my biggest complaint has to be the quality of so many of the players and the community. Way to many cry babies that grief and cry about how its too hard to make money or get (insert item) and What community its like every player for themselves. Not all i have seen and met a lot of good decent people (LOL usually the 30-40+ years old players So anyone else think Paul and Andrew ever miss the old days with only a few servers and pretty much everyone appreciating their effort?

syal_antilli Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 simply put, runscape is like a democracy. you can try all you want and whine all you want, but things aren't going to change a terrible lot. But once in a while when someone has a great idea, and knows how to express it to the community in a legible and sensible manor, jagex takes notice. I think they've done a great job so far, and will continue to suport their efforts to further update the game. I require hugs. Seriously, just give them to me, and youll see your little turtle again.

Chaos_Reborn Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I don' think they miss the old days. They've got one of the largest MMORPGs out there, make loads of cash, have a handful of workers under them and an office. They're still getting appreciated, that's for sure. Back then there were people who complained as well. Visit my Runescape comedy website, based on in-game screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xx_Flare_xX Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I don't think they care tbh since the ones that are complaining are paying Jagex's wages.

mario_sunny Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I think the main problem was the rants board. That one forum has been, and still is a growing disaster. The thoughtless rants only spawn more thoughtless rants, and the community has generally gone way downhill. I can almost garantee that without a rants board runescape today would be dramatically better. If I could go back in time before runescape 2 was created, I would definately try to convince the founders to hold off on the rants forum. By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( .

Maximusa Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Its hard to read these suck up threads without feeling insulted for those who spend ALOT of time trying to improve the game through expression their concerns. While also knowing there are alot of spam threads complaining about mindless things.. you make both sound like whining kids. But I think we can all agree we hate these suck up people worshipping them even more. Those people who dont read rants properly and write complete trash. They never read beyond the title and call everyone a noob. I would pay 50 pounds a month just to play in a server with those other ranters who would also pay 50 pounds a month to escape players who suck up to them. Alot of us spend time trying to improve the game and have to deal with these players who cant even read.. Without people ranting and stepping up we would both be working a coal mine or something in real life. Alot of things are broken in this game and fortunatly there are alot of players that love this game to the point they choose to play while trying to make jagex listen! They want them to listen because they love the game more than those who dont rant. Those who dont rant just quit and offer nothing to the community. Sacrifice nothing. Everyone else who rants is just a moron. Try reading the valid rants and you see people with double your intelligence and love for the game. Ever sit around thinking """ man I miss the good old days, when the players loved us and appreciated what we made""" You mean' While sitting on the toilet using 100 pound notes as toilet paper. """ man I miss the good old days, when the players loved us and appreciated what we made""" :lol: Not that I blame them. They must laugh at those who cant think for themselves and believe every word they say. \ VMeh BlogV >Miscellaneous Goals< http://www.rsbandb.com/sigs/sig108/bazzaminxer.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Andrew and the team do a very good job, it's just that some people don't know how much work it takes to make an update. That's why they released the Development Diaries. It didn't quite work out how it was intended. Personally, I think JAGeX is doing a GREAT job. People don't understand that JAGeX aren't perfect.

Wouter828 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Rs is cheap really. I mean 20 euro's per 3 months is nothing for a game, I spend about 3 times as much on a new wii game. So that's not really something I think you can complain about. And about Jagex, they're doing a good job, in my opinion: they do more about scamming, botting and such than they're obliged to and they keep this game fun with updates. So all in all I don't think we have alot to complain about. Click here for my blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharane Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Anyone who whines has never worked in their life before. Ever. Nor doesn't know the times those two skipped holidays just for the game. -.- "300 programmers make their futile but glorious last stand against 1000000 angry players in The battle of Misthalin.

PastyGangsta Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Jagex probably misses the tighter, better community of RSC before people started abusing the game with Macro programs. But they also probably love RS2 because of its great success, I mean come on... wouldn't you love something that made you rich? I personally wish we could combine RS2's game content with RSC's community... would be an awsome game then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the number of players has increased tenfold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
