Terrible naming of items

Featured Replies

Just today I finally found out why there was no "Dragon Dagger (p++)" in the GE. The reason? Instead of logically following the pattern of:

 

Dragon Dagger

 

Dragon Dagger (p)

 

Dragon Dagger (p+)

 

and making the dagger with the super poison++ called "Dragon Dagger (p++)" Jagex decides to call it "Drag Dagger (p++)". I mean honestly, wtf??? I've had the stupid (p+) for the longest time because I thought it was the best dragon dagger but no, Jagex just has to use their terrible naming system...and I could've been dealing more poison damage to Iron/Steel Dragons and KBD all this time...UGH that pisses me off.

 

 

 

Other item's I've noticed this with are some trimmed dragonhide items (both the blue and green D'hide (t) bodies are named the EXACT same thing, same with the chaps)

 

 

 

Anyone else hate this as much as I do?

Not really, I have the intelligence to search for Dagger if Dragon doesn't work.

I find that shortening the name is superficially extraneous to the name or conservation of memory to store said name.

 

They really should just name it dragon dagger (p++). Not for the reason you stated, (use the knowledge base or fansites for looking up poisons...) but just because it would make sense.

My guess is that they don't have room to put Dragon but they have room to put Drag.

Are you kidding me... There is a Drag Dagger (P++)??!??!111

 

 

 

Wow that's so stupid, I have a p+ and I thought they took away the super poison for dragon daggers.. How stupid...

From the Herblore Guide:

 

 

 

Weapon poison (p)

 

Weapon poison+ (p+)

 

Karambwan paste: Can only be applied to spears (kp)

 

Weapon poison++ (p++)

 

 

 

 

 

It's not Jagex's fault you can't pay attention to the game.

I did the same thing you did when i hadn't played for like 6 months. Thought P+ was the best i could get hahahah :lol:

They used to be called DDS but Jagex thought it meant

 

'Dragon Dagger Saradomin' so they changed it to 'pee plus plus'

Adamant is worse, it has adam, addy and adamant.

I hate this also. If you type in rune helm , he don't find rune full helm :evil:

 

 

 

Many more things.

OT : I hate dragonhide naming, adamant naming, and the dragon dagger naming, although I havnt had a problem with it thus far.

im not a member but some of these idiotic names come across in f2p as well. i think that the ge database should pick up "nick names" for example. instead of writing scimitar u just need scim or scimmy.

That would be hell. First off, you can do "scim" because its part of scimitar. And as for scimmy, its not always called that. Iv seen cimmy, simmy, sim, etc. WAY too many and no one would be able to find anything.

 

 

 

They just need to fix the certain things.

For a while I just thought they couldn't be bought on the GE, but I knew they existed so I just bought a normal dragon dagger and super poison. Addy stuff really annoy's me though... there's addy, adam, adamant, and adamantite. I think that's a bit much.

[bleep] the law, they can eat my dick that's word to Pimp

I agree, especially with the Addy, Adamant and Adam point. That's a lot of names. Of course, you could blame him for not searching "dagger", but it still should not be like that. Perhaps a system where searching "dragon" for example brings up results for all the official names used, for example "dragon dagger (p+)" and "drag dagger (p++)".

Yea, why should Jagex make players strain themselves to type in all 2 of those extra letters to get a proper word. What country does Jagex work from? Pretty sure we're sending our money to aid in the new Soviet Regime.

Well, I don't much have a problem with the metals, cause really, I don't much use adamant anymore. Plus, I knew that DDS's still exist and do exist cause I had one before and after the update! The major problem I see with this is in Construction. Construction flatpacks have really really messed up names. One even had 3 apostrophes in it. "Oak Ar'm'r C'se" or something like that. JAGeX might be able to do something like add tags, but so far their search system is still based on the names of the items (that they make up!).

Well, how would one go about making those items easier to understand?

 

 

 

Poisoned Dragon Spear

 

Super Poisoned Dragon Spear

 

Karambwan Poisoned Dragon Spear

 

Ultra Super Poisoned Dragon Spear

Personally I like the shorthand better. Just flip through the KB and you'll get it sooner or later.

Adamantine.

 

 

 

I thought it was Adamantite. What is Adamantine?

Adamantine is the attempt to try to name the adamant set of items. Adamant is the metal. Adamatantite is the made-up ore.

menea_reuter.pnglinkresponsewb2.th.jpg

Adamant, but, hmm no spell check for the word "adamantite" might just be me though but i don't think the word "adamantite" is a true solid word. but thats just me and possibly off topic. dragon dagger(P++) is a bit long so they probably tried shortening it and putting it in a different category. so searching for (P++) in the grand exchange shows all of the dragon daggers in a list. weird, eh? its a big stupid as well because if a beginning player tries to search for a (P++) d d they possibly wont find it. such thing with tz shield, (obby shield). dragon dagger, dragon dagger(P?), dragon dagger(P+), "drag"dagger(p++). but yeah its a bit odd that they would miss categorize dragon dagger. i'm sorry if i'm typing a bit to much.

 

 

 

Adamant: sword, shield, plate, plate legs, helm, etc

 

 

 

Adamantite: The ore? and, or; the bar?

 

 

 

Adamantine: ?
