John Halo Chief Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Skirts cost less because there are fewer girls then guys in runescape. And most girls I know prefer to wear d legs over the skirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickyBee32 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 You know what? I am very pround to sport a man skirt. Both dragon and veracs. And never have I been made fun of. Now i do think all of the other skirts rune and below do look a bit strange on male characters, but i wouldn't make fun of them. I'm sure a few guys have said this in the thread, but this is the first post containing it so.... But anyways, whenever I see a guy character in a plateskirt, I compliment him on his kilt and tell him it takes a real man to wear a skirt. Usually this is taken in the good humour it's meant - on one occasion it lead to a long and entertaining conversation about leg waxing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aliath Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 male characters can wear plateskirts... the price difference is purely because of looks, and that more players play on male accounts, from what i've seen. male accounts often are insulted for wearing plateskirts. the price is entirely player made, not jagex-made Only real men wear skirts into combat.

GlobalSmack Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I a guy...and personally....I think I look sexier in a skirt or tassets. My typical attire consists of Proselyte tassets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 They really should make platelegs and plateskirts the same weight and price (like amulets). It's just sexist how the plateskirt is lighter than the platelegs, yet it is also cheaper. They should give back the female chest piece as well.

Skeptical Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I've worn a dragons skirt before (I always called it a kilt though :thumbsup:) Players set prices, Jagex has nothing to do with it, although I do think that they should increase the drop rate of platelegs to even out the price, because of the abundance of male characters in the game.

hazz Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 its not sexist its just alot of ppl dont like the style of a dragon skirt and they like the style of a dragon platelegs so they'll buy that moer often causing it to rise and since nobody wants to wear a d skirt itll stay cheap.

iAnnabelle Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 "does it not view that girls cant make as much money as boys? does it view that they intend runescape to be harder for males than females?" Wtf? NO! Its just that there are more boys in the game = they need to sell the plateskirts = lots of plateskirts needed to be sold = need to be lowered. Even if I was a boy, I would still disagree with you. ~iAnnabelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxmaryjanex Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 In dung, the plateskirt and platelegs have severely different stats. The skirt has less of an impact to the magic attack and range attack bonus, has a lower stab, slash, and range def. bonus than the legs, and has a higher crush defense. This makes the skirt more favorable for a range tank than the legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vio Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Is this like the oldest active thread? :P If the skirts are lighter, then why are they cheaper? Running less is more expensive? Logic? Also this is not true for dragon armour. D legs and D skirt are equal in stats AND weight. Just legs are incredibly expensive for some reason. Dunno why, they make my thighs look fat :mellow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Profins Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I'm a man and I wear skirts just because they look awesome. Back in the days (REALLY BACK IN THE DAYS), skirt were a part of armour. Only reason I don't have rune skirt for rune sets is because rune legs are needed for a clue and I didn't want to waste a bankslot. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
