What kind of a suggestion was "We have the right to play another game if we don't like this one"?!?! - of course you do genius, just as you can smash your head into your computer screen if you like. Besides the fact that half of the suggestions are like this - things that have absolutly NO relevance to/for Jagex, the other ones would never be accepted.

You have a right to play another game. . . :lol: =D> . . .

 

 

 

Genius, you seem to have missed the underlying sarcasm of my first post. I was poking fun at the entire concept of the OP.

 

 

 

Take a look at my second post:

 

 

 

Seriously, though... I don't understand what's to be achieved from this topic...

 

 

 

As members, we're essentially paying for an expansion pack for the game. We're not using our $5/mo. to buy stock in the company or anything. We don't, and shouldn't have, any say as to how Jagex builds their game.

 

 

 

It applies to any business out there. You don't go into a grocery store, buy a gallon of milk for $3, and then demand to get a bunch of other items for free, simply because you paid for something. Runescape is that milk. We paid for it. We got it. It stops there.

 

 

 

Yes, it would be lovely if Jagex would listen to every suggestion from their players, F2P and P2P alike, but they're not obligated to do so.

 

 

 

Just my opinion...

 

 

 

By saying "We have the right to play a different game..." I was really saying "If you don't like this game as it is, go play something else. Don't whine about it."

 

 

 

Look before you leap.

 

 

 

:thumbdown:

We the players have absolutely no rights whatsoever regarding the playing of Runescape or related services provided by Jagex ltd., apart from the choice not to play. It's Jagex's job to make the game as good as they can possibly make it, but it is not their duty.

 

 

 

How about a 'Player's Bill of Requests', instead, outlining what Jagex should keep in the game no matter what?

so true fog tele for dueling ring aded from forums. This is so true nice

we as members should be able to suggest new content, and our suggestions should acctually be read.

 

well i wish -.-

Jagex is a private company, runescape is a private game. We have no rights. While it in the best interest of Jagex to make this game as appealing as they can for its players in order to make more money, they do not have to listen to anyone except their majority shareholders, whome I believe are the Gower brothers.

you sign over your rights when you accept the Terms of Condition.

I'm pretty sure players do have a bill of rights as such. Its called Jagex making sure that players are satisfied or they will take their money elsewhere.

 

 

 

I think the new CEO has realised this at least in part and realised that they weren't listening to players as they should have done. Why else post a message like the one we saw? They sure didn't wake up one morning and say 'Hey we aren't listening to the players'. I suspect they may have lost a fair amount of £££/$$$ per month to put such a statement out.

1st of all stop flaming people. This is meant to be a debate on what you think jagex should give us hands down, weather it be weapons new quests or just respect.

 

 

 

both f2p and members should have the right to make suggestions on any new content wanted and old content updates, and these should actually be read if at least skimmed through.

Its not flaming at all. Its merely disagreeing with the point that players have some right to decide what goes on in the game, be they paying members or not. Fact is we don't have the right and trying to link RS with real life constitutions is silly.

I don't think a CEO puts out the message like one the one we saw on the RS website for no reason. When they admit they arent listening to players, as they havent done for a good while, its serious. Players can vote with cancelling their memberships as any customer can boycott shops. JAgex state a lot they don't care about the money, but its what pays their salaries, so RS is real life. If players leave people lose jobs and companies fold. Fact of life.

No rights, Runescape is a dictatorship, playing is a pre-given privilege.

"We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Characters are created equal, that they are endowed by Jagex with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Skills, Freedom and the pursuit of Skill Capes."

No such thing as bill of rights in Runescape, we all agreed to the terms of Service of Jagex. Jagex decide on where their game is going, it's their business in the first place;)

Players don't have any rights or influence Jagex. They can make suggestions, but hell, how can that even be considered a right...?

 

 

 

Agreed on the issue of rights but I'd say players have a lot of influence as a group, and Jagex are well aware of it. If enough people get feed up and leave that'll influence Jagex a whole load.

 

 

 

never think you're without power as a customer, just think how best to use it.

Not sure about the bit about new content every month, but everything else seems pretty interesting.

What you're looking for isn't exactly "rights", more or less entitlements. We demand that you give us what we want! We demand that we can kill each other! We demand you make skilling easier! We demand ... !

 

 

 

Seriously though. Even if you do pay membership fees, you should not receive any rights. It's not like you own a bit of Jagex, as in shareholders, its more that Jagex owns a bit of you.

 

 

 

In communist Russia, Jagex owns YOU!!!!

 

 

 

But seriously, the players have no rights. It's Jagex's game, and they can do what they want with it...

 

Accepting the Terms and Conditions means that you forfeit your "rights".

 

Not that you have any to start anyway...

Jagex is the one and only true owner of your account. You simply pay them for access to your account. If your account were to be deleted or lost for no reason at all, they would be liable for nothing.

 

 

 

It's also the main reason you are not allowed to sell your account. Most people say "$150 picture with free runescape account." To avoid legal trouble. Much in the same way people get OEM Windows Vista for free with a $99 cd-rom audio cable at mom and pop computer stores.

 

 

 

The only reason they don't delete people they don't like, is that it's not in their best interest.

"Overall Bill of player's rights

 

1.We the Players have the right to play another game, if we don't like the existing rules set forth by Jagex...-Credit to SerpentEye"

 

 

 

We already have this right; it was never denied any of us.
