December 13, 200718 yr Welp, it's official: regardless how you feel about the new updates, RWT is dead. But, before you begin to dance on their collective grave, I must warn you that there may be some very bad unforeseen effects on the horizen. Have any of you heard about the thousands of accounts being banned for so called "offensive" names? Many of which have been loyal players for years, both F2P and P2P, many without a single black mark. Why this sudden rash of unfairness? Could it be, with the lack of RWT to moniter, that JaGex CAN process all of the abuse reports and may choose to listen to some of the more immature players? After all, with the many religions, ethnic groups, and languages in the world almost ANYTHING can be construed as offensive. Well, even if that's true, at least beggers and scammers are done for, right? Weeeell... Maybe. While it is true that some beggers may quit begging, many may continue unhampered. Why? Well, consider how often YOU replied to the cry of "Free St00f Pl0x!!!" with a generous donation. Yeah. Thought so. And some scammers live to cheat people REGARDLESS of the reward. Some people are just cruel like that. And many of the scams may be different; "Give me 1500 gp and I'll double it for you!!!" may soon enough become a new cry of the snakeoil tradesmen. Remember this be speculation so try to give it at least SOME thought. Thank you for your time, Ravenkana Slayer of Dragons, Destroyer of Demons, Killer of Trees, and Decimater of fish. If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system. Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare? Worldwide thermonuclear war? Pie eating contest?
December 13, 200718 yr What you are saying is pretty true, but if those that say trade 1.5k and I'll double it get reported, they will get banned pretty quickly too.

December 13, 200718 yr Who would scam for 1.5k lolz. Those leechers are merely a pimple on the bum of the fly that sniffs a dragon turd. The balanced trade thing will stop 99% of scammers in their tracks, there is no point in people trying to keylog, as they can't xfer after Jan 08. I'm sure subtle changes will be introduced prior to its release to enable the 3k gap to be widened. I mean, 3k lolz - means I can't give a power ammy/scimmy/rune helm etc to a clanmate!

December 13, 200718 yr I don't really care if some people get scammed of 1.5k. If they're so sad about it, I don't mind giving them 1.5k from my own money lol 2480+ total
December 13, 200718 yr Author Here's a point I just thought up: Once if an angry, immature player threatened to report you for no reason, you could just laugh it off. If I'm right about the offensive name thing (and I pray I'm not), if that leaks out, Noob reports will become a SERIOUS threat...
