ixfd64 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Large companies, like, Microsoft, often have company/CEO ratings that show the approval rate - in other words, the percentage of people who approve of what they're doing. I know that U.S.-Forbes has a rating of 65 companies, but Jagex isn't included since it's based in England. Are there any approval ratings of Jagex being published by major companies? I'd like to see how these recent updates have affected Jagex ratings (like how EA's CEO's rating went down to the 20s shortly after EA shut down Earth & Beyond).

Latinoking Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Let's just say...it's worse then George W. Bush. I expect by next year to have crappy games like Maplestory or CP run over RuneScape in members.

I expect by next year to have crappy games like Maplestory or CP run over RuneScape in members. I think it'd be worse than George W. Bush's if he imposed sharia law in the US. :lol: But seriously, I don't think there are any official stats for that.

ronnyuk Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Jagex is a private company so there are no shareholders, it can in theory do what ever it wants, if you look at publicly owned games like Warcraft, they play test all the updates first to make sure there is no negitive impact and to avoid issues like we have just seen. I will continue to say it, Jagex is talking out its arse if it thinks RWT was going to kill Runescape, there is other reasons behind this of which we are not being informed. If Blizzard can manage RWT then so can Jagex. I read the diary that Jagex has posted about the reasons, and the lame comments by the Mod's about how bad RWT is getting etc etc, none of it really made any sense, all it says is "we are too lazy to keep fighting this battle and want a quick fix" Quit Runescape 10 jan 2007 - Playing again 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qeltar Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 What some people don't realize is that being a good leader means sometimes doing what you must even if it's unpopular. (I am not defending Bush by the way, just speaking generally.) If you only do things based on poll numbers, you're not a leader, you're a follower.

If you only do things based on poll numbers, you're not a leader, you're a follower. +1, People think jagex just lies about how much money they lose in RWT.... Why would they lie about that and then make the majority of Runescape players suffer for a minor problem. I rather them not have to deal with RWT and Autoers trading over 100's of thousands of flax or yews. We have a little inconvience until they smooth this update out, everyone really doesn't understand how big of an impact this will have on cleaning this game up. Bottom line is that I am staying and I don't mind there being less people on worlds.... more time for me to train my skills while I watch people protest.

Toxicologist Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The polls on Tip.it seems to show that most people still like JAGeX. Why do you resist?

SwreeTak Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The polls on Tip.it seems to show that most people still like JAGeX. Yes.

Haha yes of course it's because they're American, of course... -.- Anyways, what did Blizzard do to deal with the problem? Ever since I've started playing WOW I've seen no action taken against gold farmers and the like. My friend buys gold when he needs it and is thinking about buying a Level 70 Shaman now, you'll find people advertising sites that sell gold whenever you enter a main city (Orgrimmar at least) and the game even has a mailing system that doesn't prevent players from recieving large amounts of gold from RWT'ers. Apparantly Blizzard is finally going to start taking action against scammers, when it comes to RWT'ers, scammers and the like Blizzard is terrible, they really don't seem to care. However gold farmers don't hinder my gameplay at all, and much of the end game content can't be bought with gold anyway.

kieranread Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Why do Americans always think everything should work like it does for them, its ridiculous, leave Jagex the way is it, i like them for this update they have saved me ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã5 a month pretty good of them really.

JaGEx could have taken more time on these updates. There are so many things that could and should be fixed, that have no affect on RWT, negatively or positively.

(not in the rs example though or bush) One problem with politics these days is that people expect their leaders to do what THEY want, not what the leader wants. The point of a republic is to elect leaders that do what they want, not what the people want at that moment. The populus is easily swayed by attack ads for instance. The hope is that the leader will not be so easily swayed. At least that is how America's founders designed our government to reflect...

deep_pain Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The polls on Tip.it seems to show that most people still like JAGeX. Current Poll: Quit now. I'm not waiting to try the new trade system. 6% (385 votes) Quit now. Merchanting or pking is completely changed. 14% (868 votes) Wait it out. I'll decide once things settle down. 33% (2073 votes) I don't plan on quitting. 23% (1482 votes) Why quit? This is great! 24% (1489 votes) Of course this is only representetive of tip.it users not runescape in general. But only 47% think they are definately staying. 53% are quitting or are not sure they will keep playing. This is the current poll, others are based before the update. It is also more representative of peoples views on runescape rather than Jagex as a company. But I fail to see how 47% is a majority. Co-Founder of KoA over 18's clan. Founded 2002.

The_Gabe Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I heard about this somewhere thet they had to get rid of RWT because the credit card componies were going to quit supporting them if RWT didn't stop, and sense most ppl pay using credit cards... You figure out the rest :-# Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course being a republic means that leaders should ignore the populace. I mean if you did what the people wanted that would make you a democracy, who wants to be a democracy eh?
