Oh for Pete's sake stop moaning.

[deep_pain]

I can't help it, I have to let it out, as much as this post will be aimed at me, beacuse I'm moaning making the post.

 

 

 

Why can people never be happy with updates?

 

 

 

I don't just mean the most recent, but I will get onto that. All updates, any updates.

 

 

 

You're crying ruins the game for everyone.

 

 

 

As you can see from my post-count I'm not a regular poster here or on any RS forums. I doubt I'm what you could even call a regular player, being only 104 combat after playing 6 years in jan.

 

 

 

But why can't these people stop moaning for pity's sake.

 

 

 

They don't seem to give a damn about how anything affects anyone else... As long as I'm alright Jack, screw you... If I'm not alright I'm gonna moan and cry like a little girl 'til someone takes pity and listens.

 

 

 

All I've heard from the recent update is things like:

 

 

 

(these are primarily fishing or cooking based reqs, as they are what I've been doing since update).

 

 

 

Stop assisting people it'll ruin the market

 

 

 

They should Earn their own skills

 

 

 

It's not right that a lvl 1 fishing should be able to fish shark

 

 

 

not many people have voiced it, a few have and if you talk to the complainers it seems to be the underlying concern.... I didnt get any help.. or I had to work for my levels..

 

 

 

 

 

Well if these people are stupid enough to think that the market will collapse because of this, then I wonder how they manage to type, because this is stupidity of a grand scale. I'm not going to bother backing that statement up, or giving it any credence, because if you are stupid enough to think this will screw up the market for sharks, well no amount of explaining will help you.

 

 

 

As for the earn your own skills bit, well you know everyone needs help or advice at some point, whether it's with a quest, or directions, or what something does, or an item they need for quest and really cant find etc etc etc etc.. Given the huge amount of people that play RS it's hard to see the kindness, but there are some very kind players on RS. helpful considerate etc...

 

 

 

It's hard to see sometimes, but there have always been people willing to give money, fish, help, cut gems, show someone the way, whatever people may need. They dont want recognition or to be added to peoples friends lists or become a mod or expect something back at all, they do it out of the kindness of their hearts. People have always given and always will. I always have and always will.

 

 

 

The.. i had to work for my levels thing... well whoopie freaking doo, I dont care, I'm not going to stop helping people because you got no help, maybe if you stopped looking at yourselves so much and give if someone needs, then the world wouldnt be such a cold place.

 

 

 

Stop crying about it, move on, so these people are getting something you didnt, is it really the end of the world?

 

 

 

 

 

You are the same people that cried and cried when they didnt get holiday drops, so when it came to santas, Jagex dropped billions of the things, I don't know who was playing at the time, but you couldnt move for santas on the floor, the whole map would be red dots, and they dropped them for ages. yet still people cried.. what about me.. i didnt get onebut he got 10. So they stopped tradable drops.

 

 

 

You might not have even been playing back then, but you are the same people. every update that affects your skills or wealth.... cry.

 

 

 

I got most of my 99 cooking way before cook-x or cook-all it can be a bit annoying that people can level so easily on cooking now. But meh what difference does it make really, if I care that much.. which i dont.. It would just make me work harder to stay above them.

 

 

 

I've only gotten 8 str levels since RSC (shows how much i've played :P) but I had to work far far harder on RSC for the same amount of levels as someone would on rs2.. it might be a bit annoying with the speed of xp on rs2 that people do in months what it took me a longgg time to do on rsc.. but i dont cry about it, i dont go and post on the RS forums about how it's ruined the game.

 

 

 

There will always be updates, and to a certain extent, some things will always get easier and faster.

 

 

 

Live with it, if you cant.. stop [bleep]ing to me.. go elsewhere.. dont play the game if it annoys you that much.

 

 

 

sadly it's the voice of the loud few, that carries over the silent majority.. when the few cry too much, it makes changes that affect the majority.

 

 

 

I'm not saying and never would, dont express you're opinion, because I believe strongly that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, what I am saying is, make a small post, state the facts, or talk about it with ur friends, vote on a poll, but dont go on and on and on about it, or do what I'm doing now and rant about it :P

 

 

 

Take it in your stride, make your point and move on. Nothing that happens on RS is life changing, or should upset you, unless you want it to / let it. It's a game, remember that.

 

 

 

On a side note:

 

 

 

SAntas are way over priced, there were soooooooo many dropped.

 

It would be funny if jagex made it 1 per person max. that would truely lead to some changes on the marketplace of grand proportions. I dont think they should make it 1per person, or will, but dang it would be funny if they did.

 

 

 

that's it. one rant in 6 years i should be allowed that.

 

 

 

stop spreading the hate, it's amazing how far a little kindness will go. If evryone thought about others a little more, not a lot just a little, you wouldn't need to think about yourself so much, because others would be doing it for you.

 

 

 

 

 

you - is aimed at the moaners... not neccasarily you

 

 

 

:boohoo:

[Str4lif3]

I agree, a lot of people don't see the good side of updates. If you don't love an update, don't use it..

[rune2thescape]

:D I completely agree with you, you never have to use an update :roll:

[henman888]

Strongly agree with you

[Mico]

I agree with the "stop whining" part and the "DEI HAV NO LVL DEI GET NO ST00F" not being good. BUT, not everyone can be pleased.

[Sharane]

Actually, they stopped the tradeable holiday drops because of the "Selling santa 100k" on the VERY DAY THEY WERE DROPPED. People purposely misunderstood Jagex's holiday spirit for greedy purposes and that was the consequence.

 

 

 

Other than that, I agree with everything.

Yeah you're right that is definately one of the predominant reasons & the main reason Jagex gave, but people were complaining non-stop thru holiday drops, over the length of the tradable drops they dropped more and for longer periods because of people moaning, to a point where they were just everywhere you looked. Then people still complained they didnt get any. I think santas were 2 weeks? not sure cant remember. I think moaning did have a bearing on the decision to stop tradable drops.

 

 

 

They definately were not 100k tho.. not sure while they were being dropped but they were 30k just after the drop stopped :P

 

 

 

thanks for all who read such a long and boring post, and thanks for all being so supportive :P . can't believe i havent had someone slate me yet. Maybe it was too long a post for people who like to argue to read? hehe thx again

[purfishx]

People always complain when they can't get what they want. Well most.

[HatshepsutLecter]

I agree with you. I am always confused by the amount of people that start complaining when there is a new update. Sometimes they don't even bother to actually log into the game and try it out before then run off to various forums to complain. It does not make sense to me at all. Tecnically, Runescape does not HAVE to be updated. Or updated as frequently as it is. Most of the updates that have happened while I have been playing the game in my two years have been fantastic and have done very well over the time that they have been in the game. The couple that I did not like, I have gotten used to.

 

 

 

In short, I think complainers should go program their own perfect game where everyone is happy with everything and then they can come back here talking. Til then, how bout shutting up and enjoying the game that you are supposed to be playing to have fun.

[gun_hippy]

I hate how people moan at EVERY update.

 

 

 

But some updates, truly, deserve it.

 

 

 

P ess, the ditch, ss banning to name a few.

 

 

 

This recent one however, idk why so many people are so pissed..i think they just don't understand what the update is, despite how clear jagex explained it.

[The Observer]

I agree. No matter what JAGeX does, there will always be rants. No matter how trivial they are.

[Cryptogram]

Forgiven for moaning. This isn't even a rant, it's an essay. :D

 

 

 

Agree with you tho.

[Alg]

=D>

 

best rant i've ever read.

 

 

 

people will always rant about the updates, because they get their hopes up when they try to figure out what it is. everyone expects something different, yet perfect, and usually think that they're going to release a huge update that will please whatever player group they're in. when that doesn't happen, they hardly even give it a chance, just rush straight into whatever rants board they happen to visit and whine.

 

people are going to rant about every aspect of the game that they can until the updates stop coming. at that point, they'll rant about that, until possibly realizing just what they could have done with what they were complaining about had they given it more than 5 minutes worth of thought.

 

darn shame if it comes to that, really

[Olbritishchap]

I made a thread like this(a lot shorter though) and it got locked in about a minute lol. I agree with all you said.

[SupportMage]

This man is your friend. Give him all your money and listen to him.

[Death_Hippy]

Ironically, I was thinking of making a post like this...Well, you pretty much said it (though I'd be less nice trust me).Ya...people do moan a lot about this game (less so than other games, which I can say from experience...whenever Blizzard or Steam makes a update people usually say "Oh sweet they fixed a major bug!YES!" but in this game people are like "oh that bug fix ruins the gameplay and I can't make money as fast....).

[Dragonlordjl]

Well, I agree mostly... However, high levels have a right to moan about the Assist System, not because it devalues levels (it doesn't) but because it created a mentality that begging is totally acceptable. High levels are plagued relentlessly by lower levels who follow and beg for assistance. A simple way for them to fix this is to make the 30k exp work for both parties, in that someone cannot "give" more than 30k exp total each day. This would effectively stop people from going from person to person leeching off their resources. Also, they NEED a toggle follow option.

[yanksrule]

your complaining about complaining? :-s

 

 

 

i typed that before this =P

 

 

 

yeah people really need a glass with that wine there giving us (yep bad pun) your deserve a rant a year as far as im concerned. you've given us -4 (you ranted on rants) so what else yah got : ? at least you've assessed and though out your rant which i give you credit for... i like to post on rants now and i gotta tell you the ones that are locked are the either really funny ones or the plaint cries out for phr33 st00F pl@X. i give credit.

 

 

 

+1

[roanlo]

yeah see that in almost every game i've played(pc based) once ya get an update theres gernally a complainer(mostly 11 year olds) but it gets sooo annoying!

 

 

 

i was on an other games forums jsut after an update- i saw a few people saying how good it was but what shocked me is that most of the gernal disscussion board was over 100 people saying that it is [sensord] and that they should get rid of it ect..

 

 

 

gets tireing. i dont gernerlly stay on forums because of that...

 

and if i do its gernally in a Questions and Answers thread page-i like helping people O:)

 

but yeah best word of addvise is jsut 2 ignore the brats really. and deep you seem like on the few very nice guys taht i see(lol barly any at school :XD: )

[deep_pain]

Well it looks like they managed to get it changed.

 

 

 

it looks like if you cry enough it's possible to get what you want.

 

 

 

I think if Jagex gets tons of people crying about something new, they just pander to what they think people want, they dont seem to realise that if people are happy with an update they generally don't rush on to a forum to post how extremely happy they are. People crying doesn't mean everyone is unhappy, if people cry too much take a vote.

 

 

 

From everyone I know on RS, most people wern't unhappy with the fact people could gain raw materiels, of course when something new comes out you will get tons of people trying to use it. But it's amazing how over the course of the week, fewer and fewer people asked for assistance at one of the few things I could offer, fishing.

 

 

 

There will always be beggars on RS, they will always hasle higher levels for free stuff, but there are a lot of genuine players who work hard on their stats, but maybe are new to the game or have only been training for a few months and havent got any amazing way of earning money yet. I've always been happy and willing to help those people. Because I don't know how many of you remember but the first few months when you cant just make quick money, they are hard, especially if you die training or whatever.

 

 

 

Then came the assist system, and it was soon obvious to the beggars who just want stuff for nothing that fishing shark is probably slower than running round and begging from people. at the start of the week it seemed every low lvl on runescape was at the fishing spots in catherby asking for asistance, at the end there were actually very few, i found I offered assistance a few times and had no takers.. why... because catching shark is slow and takes patience, these people are willing to work hard at getting those shark, in the few times they might recieve assistance. to me those people that were willing to do that are more than worthy of my help.

 

 

 

Well from now on if there is an update I want changing I'm going to get my :boohoo: out and on the Jagex forums and get things changed to how I want them.

 

 

 

If you don't like it... don't stand for it, go and cry on the Jagex forums, they'll make it all better.. diddums

[Stone69_Eyes]

Amen, you should post more often, TIF needs more people like you posting. 8-)

[Samurai_1909]

Agreed. I saw a quote in someone's sig which describes this perfectly:

 

 

 

Q. How many RS players does it take to change a lightbulb?

 

A. 50. 1 to change the bulb and the other 49 to complain about how it was better before. :lol:

[CaJ]

Granted, I think Jagex came out with better updates in 2004, when we had the Kalphite Queen and such. Although I haven't played this game since 2006, my advice is to just ignore the idiots. Even in the old days of RS (I'm talking Classic) there were people complaining about the updates then. I didn't like the updates either but I didn't pay attention to them and I just did what I was doing best. I wish I still had those RS Classic Pics, too bad they got deleted a couple years ago.

[runescapeloser22]

Somebody always complains. When an update is geared towards higher levels, low levels complain, and vice versa.

 

 

 

If an update like GWD comes out then merchants complain because it drives prices crazy. If the day comes when nobody complains... then somebody will make a rant just to ruin the moment :lol: .

[Dizzle229]

I agree completely with this rant. Updates are put into the game for people who WANT to use them, if you don't then you don't HAVE to.
