Skully Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Ok this is getting bigger and bigger and to be quite honest with you, i'm sick of it. All I say on these forums are idiots posting 1 drop trips and saying "OMFG@@!@!@!@11!@@!@" for every single Dragon Axe they get and people are giving them 10/10 just to be nice. Seriously, it's not hard, nobody actually cares. A dragon axe is 1.7m? That is not a significantly large value and wouldnt immensely impact your bank value. If your going to DK, at least do it properly? I see idiots wearing an array of Rune, Rockshell, Dhide, Torag, etc. These guys are giving DKers a bad name. Duo maging does not make you cool.

SirHartlar Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 They can post if they like I guess, it isn't at all interesting to see a 600k split of a dragon axe though. People don't post every single Barrows item so I agree people shouldn't post what they think are "amazing trips". The Monster Drop Rally sticky is there for a reason, and people should make blogs if they want to post every single drop. On the matter of the actual welfare dkers themselves, well I'm in two minds. Firstly, why bother going at that level anyway? It must be frustrating taking twenty minutes to get down there to kill ten rexes in your rune armour and then teleport out. I won't dictate what people should or shouldn't do, but that seems a bit stupid. However these people are taking up worlds for those who actually dk for a living, it is unfair on a higher level to be crashed by a trio of inexperienced people, especially when it happens on a non-ls world.

It isn't a problem neccessarily exclusive to DKs, it is the same principle as crashing at GWD or being discourteous at a crowded monster spot. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be the same principle of someone getting two shards and say bandos boots. With a 5 way split. Its not impressive, and its been stated before, we dont need constant topics of tiny tiny drops. 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenrir321 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Meh, I can see how this is annoying; 300 threads saying, "OMGG!!!!! I gotz tr33 d ax35!!!" is annoying. But, I remember my first ever barrows run. I got a dharok plate when it was still 2 mill. I was proud of it and wore it everywhere. Summary of four sentences: People should feel good in their accomplishments, but they should also keep a balance of what is "awesome" or "legendary" drop trips. note: Balance, which is normally looked down upon by most players (Mostly by lower levels. Just look at Guthix armor prices!), plays a big role in this annoying habit. \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnWRifleman Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 You must not understand. You care very much, otherwise you wouldn't be fired up when someone get's good ratings on a good first drop, and get a 10/10. No matter how easy it is, it's an accomplishment that can only be executed when you kill the Dagganoth Kings. All of the drops are considered easy to you, because they all have the same requirements: Kill the Dagganoth Kings. You can get any drops from them, rare or non-rare and you have to kill the DK's. It's no different if you got a good drop or not, you have to kill the same DK's. And that's pretty low giving first timers a low rating on something they worked hard on. It's polite to do, whether it's hard or not.

Michael Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I agree with the posting rate this for single dk drops sentiment, but I disagree with the whole "welfare" aspect of the rant, gear has no reflection on the drops, in fact using welfare gear it's harder to get drops with bad gear. While it's annoying for the rate this forum to have threads with single drops there's not much you do about it, except for reporting it or telling the poster to maybe put the drops in the "Monster Drops Rally" thread. You must not understand. You care very much, otherwise you wouldn't be fired up when someone get's good ratings on a good first drop, and get a 10/10.

It's polite to do, whether it's hard or not. Why should I be obliged to give someone a good rate? The whole point of the Rate this forum is to get opinions from other players, if you're not supposed to rate what you believe the poster should get, then what is the point of the rate this board?

If your going to DK, at least do it properly? I see idiots wearing an array of Rune, Rockshell, Dhide, Torag, etc. These guys are giving DKers a bad name. Duo maging does not make you cool. I can tell you in my 5 years of playing, at 107 combat, I have never gotten a drop better than a Dragon Dagger (p) (When they were around 65k). Even at my level, were I to receive anything worth over 1m as a drop, I would probably flip [cabbage] and post it on the ratings forum as well. If you don't want to look at them, the answer is simple: Don't look at them. Last time I checked, this is the Tip.It forum, not the Skully_Sc.IT forums. You don't have an admin priviledge, and you're not Andrew Gower, so it's not up to you to decide what is or isn't a 10/10 achievement. If players decide to rate it 10 to be nice to the kid, so be it, and last time I checked there wasn't an asterisk on the membership benefits saying *Note: Your ability to enjoy certain members benefits may change based on how other player's perceive you as 'wasting their time'" Of course, if you can point that out to me, it'd be grand. It's elitists like you that take your own accomplishments and set it as a universal standard for others to follow. It is elitists like you who have contributed to this game's player base being seen as nothing but arrogant children. And to SirHartlar, once again, If it took them two hours to kill one single Rex, they would still have just as much of a right to be there as you had. They pay their 5-7 dollars a month, and I doubt they paid to deal with other player's problems. And to be honest, if someone fought for 20 minutes straight and got an expensive item out of it, I'd like to think they were working very hard at their goal. If anything, they deserve it more than someone who can just rush in and say "Hey, DK? Bam, dead. Number 2? Bam, dead. Number 3? Bam, dead" and so on and so forth. Like I already said, even at 107 combat and 71 slayer, a dragon dagger (p) is still a great trip. A 600k piece? A godsend. 1.7m piece of armor? Don't bother putting it in my account, i'm already dead from shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
