I'm not sure you know, but lemme' give you a little history lesson regarding Qeltar. A long time ago he decided to venture into the wilderness to slay green dragons, where he was unmercilessly killed by a pure. Since that time he's held an irrational dislike of pures and PK'ing, advocating numerous changes which would all but destroy both groups (He's even admitted as such). As far as he's concerned, PK'ing and pures are evil and all of Runescape problems stem from them. Never mind the fact that the 'facts' which he so desperately aims to convey but frequently ignores show differently. Oh well... I guess I'll just call him the FOX news of Runescape He tells you what suits him and ignores what doesn't. I laughed at this. You have no proof of this. Its what i see on the RSOF all the time, a main dares to say that pures are negative in some way and its "OMG U HATE PURES AND WILD COS THEY PWNED U!!!". You just said that, but hid it by speaking without capitals and internet slang.

Sly_Wizard Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Pkers/pures WERE the only groups 'rioting'. Its just a fact. It doesn't matter that not all pures/pkers were rioting(hes not saying they all were), pures/pkers made up nearly all of the rioters. Hes not talking about other times where people have rioted only this time. Your twisting things and using things hes said before out of context. I dunno' why I'm going to do this. Anyway, pay close attention to this quote, especially the bolded word: PKers and pures. The same groups who always engage in idiotic behavior any time a change is made that affects their gameplay. al̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâ÷ways /̢̮â¬Â¹Ãâ¹Ã¢â¬Â ̢̮â¬Â°Ã¢â∠Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have to say regardless of your history with this person it would be advisable to stop saying negative things about him, I know hes doing it to you but my hope (as with all arguments) is that any insults can be got over quickly and then people can discuss/argue the actual issue at hand.

Sly_Wizard Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 But you are trolling. This thread was about the new update and the possible positives of it. You've pretty much hijacked it because it is now all about trying to prove/disprove whether pures were positive or not, and just flaming Qeltar. *Points to Mel's post before his (Either on the second or first page, I forgot)* I laughed at this. You have no proof of this. You could always ask him yourself. If he wants to tell you the truth, he will. It's not like I have a reason to lie. Its what i see on the RSOF all the time, a main dares to say that pures are negative in some way and its "OMG U HATE PURES AND WILD COS THEY PWNED U!!!". You just said that, but hid it by speaking without capitals and internet slang. It's no big secret that most people's hatred of pures stems from the fact that they were attacked and/or killed by one while walking about the wilderness. Qeltar is a good example of this : Shock horror...generalizations are sometimes true. All level 3's are macro'ers. Anyone under level 50 is a noob. Anyone over level 100 is a no lifer. All impures are stuck up snobs. There's a reason they're called generalizations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonni Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 For someone who is past his 50's I have to say the OP isnt very intelligent and certainly not the white caring high moral figure he proclaims himself to be. All it takes is to read one of his posts where he condemns everyone and everything he does not see worthy in his eyes. Somebody who is truely pure and good would never do that. I've never claimed to be "pure and good", and I'm not "past my 50s". Where do you come up with this nonsense? At any rate, I thought you were quitting. Do you need help packing your bags?

Sly_Wizard Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 The same groups who always engage in idiotic behavior any time a change is made that affects their gameplay. If you looked at what he said it was not 'PKERS RIOT ALL THE TIME WHEN THE GAME IS CHANGED', it was 'PKERS RIOT ALL THE TIME WHEN CHANGES ARE MADE THAT EFFECT THEM' (I can't remember changes to Pking before this so this would actually be true as the only time a significant change has been made to pking (these updates) they have rioted :P). Erm... Apparently you're still not understanding what I typed out. That's what I said he said and I then asked where were the other riots when changes were made to the wilderness that affected PK'ers since, according to Qeltar, we "always" riot. And, beyond that, how do 'riots' by the non-PK'ing groups play into his claim. I'm still waiting for an answer :lol: I've never seen Qeltar say he hated PKers, its obvious he doesn't LIKE them but that doesn't equate to hate(I'm of the opinion that the difference between HATE and dislike is massive and I find people say they hate things too casually). Then you should get out more. If you would have spent more time on the RSOF, you would have seen his admissions as to how much he detests pures and PK'ers as a whole. It's not a big secret. I'm not blindly defending the MEANING of his comments, I'm defending him from your abusive tone and you taking things he's said out of context, if it was the other way round I'd be defending you. You are what you are. If you're going to revel in another group's misery, speak out of your [wagon] when you don't PK and avoid the wilderness like the Ebola virus and then try to lump everyone into a group to fit your narrowmindedness, then I've NO problem in calling you an ignorant idiot. I don't like some of the updates (as I said much earlier in this thread) but really the cheats in this game were ruining it, and thats what this article was about. Try to stop seeing this as a personal attack and just post what you think about the comments raised in the article itself and by other players. Not terribly. I, along with quite a few people, cares not a lick about RWT. If they want to spend their money on a game, more power to them. It didn't negatively affect me, so I could care less. Edit: the reasons generalizations are made is because they are (shock, horror) GENERALLY true. Unfortunately in this PC (not the mini game) environment we live in people have in their heads equated generalizations to racism which is stupid IMO. *See a few responses ago* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbington Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Hurray! Me and Qeltar are on exactly the same page for once! Not one point I would differ with even slightly. Whilst I feel that some of the features that have been done/will be done need some tweaking for balancing and fairness reasons, I sadly feel that the updates where badly needed. I think the resent updates have removed allot of the worst of the players indirectly, sadly it was always recognized that it was the worst: pkers, stakers, and merchants who dragged down the games community.... I feel we are going to have a much happier, more mature community with them going. However saying that I think the better members of the above groups have had the ability to adapt to the changes.... I would still like to push for a bigger staking cap (50-75k) and a bigger trading boundary (10% either side), but if not I can still carry on. I do feel for some that genuinely feel let down by Jagex, and as the development diary said... I think Jagex are sorry to have to let them down as well. I think the game can go to a new strength now, and I bet within 6months most of the other MMORPGs will have followed what jagex have done. It will be interesting to see what the warcraft people say then...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qeltar Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Thanks for helping to keep this thread bumped, Mr. Wizard! Here's a link to the original again, which I am sure Mr. Wizard wants everyone to read. ;) I think the game can go to a new strength now, and I bet within 6months most of the other MMORPGs will have followed what jagex have done. It will be interesting to see what the warcraft people say then...! I was thinking the same thing myself. Will be interesting to see what happens.. though obviously this sort of move is not without its costs, so other MMORPGs may not want to follow suit.

Junuea Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I do agree with the vast majority of the updates, however neuturing the wilderness was over the top in my opinion, I remember all the way back to runescape classic it was a huge rush, running around the wild avoiding all the strong players. However it did need to be decreased in size for the serious PK'ers, but I don't think bounty hunter was the answer, it's a nice mini game but it can't replace the wild. They need a balance to keep all players happy, everyone plays for their own individual reasons. Like it or not, pk-ing and pures were a large aspect of the game and not all of them are bad people, not matter what type of character you always get someone being a troll or trying to frustrate your own gameplay. There's a lot of immature players within the game, and that can never be changed, to brand all pures and pk-ers as the problem is a little naive to be honest, there will always be players that will irritate you and new ways to scam to have a 100% friendly and legimately playing community is a bit unlikely. There's arguements for and against every decision that's ever been made in history, hopefully Jagex will ride the storm, and solve the problems that the real PK-ers who don't quit in a childish rage actually have with the new system, and create something that everyone can agree with, however you've got to give them time they're only human and they're only trying to make changes to the game that will effect it positvely in the long run. Now don't kick my [wagon] this is my first post! haha. \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbington Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Also we should see a massive reduction in account hacking/hijacking as the hijackers will not be able to get the items off account... although account trading will probably go in an increase, which may cancel it out as the groups will target the official forums and game with hack site addresses aimed at steeling accounts to be sold on.... of course I don't think they will be sucsessful as they have the entire of ICU focused on it.... and accounts are regainable. I semi expect Jagex to put a block on logging onto accounts from addresses over X miles away (cross continental) without having the account unlocked (with recovery questions) by jagex.... I feel if they did that we really would see an end to the illegal aspect of this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qeltar Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Sly Wizard isn't jealous of me. To understand him, simply look at the title of the thread. He is the sort of person Jagex is trying to clean out of the game. He is completely amoral and doesn't care about anything bad that happens to anyone in the game as long as it's not him. He's said as much. He opposes every change Jagex makes to stop scamming because he thinks people who get scammed "deserve it". He opposes every change Jagex makes to stop luring for the same reason. He said that there was nothing wrong with luring, and that if someone was too young or inexperienced to detect it and lost millions, that this was "good for them". Incredibly, he was even one of the ONLY people I saw complain when Jagex changed the filters so you couldn't say your own password. In his view, having a young player get tricked into saying his password, having his account get cleaned out and then the player quit in frustration would be "not a bad thing. Runescape can only be as smart as it's dumbest player." That's a direct quote. I have the thread saved. Bad rubbish, headed for the curb.
