Probably due to your AFK comment. Not that reasonable, but understandable at least, especially if the convo is only skimmed.

[Randox]

You made it sound like you afk skill. The fact you got away with it and suggesting ways to do it would count as encouraging others to break rules without to much of a stretch. Not saying you really needed to be muted (it does nothing to help if people dont even know what there muted for), but perfectly understandable all the same.

[SwimmyTheDuck]

It could be because you were suggesting that you do skills AFK, and telling that to other people, it could suggest that you were encouraging others to break rules.

 

 

 

It could've been misunderstood.

Does it really matter in the end?

 

They have the mute button, you dont.

What? Jagex shows plenty of common sense. They have a great, rapidly expanding game, with average (not great) customer support due to the sheer number of players, especially FTP. The fact that he got a very short term mute for discussing rule breaking doesn't mean that Jagex isn't using 'common sense'; it's people, not some mass cooperation. People probably older and wiser then virtually all of the RS population. A post like that is almost spam, and the OP even more so. The very fact that you play runescape shows that they have plenty of sense, although I'm sure you mean this as a joke :P Almost.

+1 If they didn't have common sense we'd be knee deep in afkers, bots, etc. But yes, they are a very smart compony. (phhh, computer geeks)

Morons.

 

 

 

AFK training is breaking the same rule as autoing, as well as he's encouraging breaking the rules by discussing ways to afk train.

 

 

 

If you're going to call someone a moron, might as well know what you're talking about. Fail.

He didn't say "afk training" he said "afk'ish" which naturally means something like the way to spend the least amount of attention and clicking on a particular event. If you just read what he says, it can clearly be read that he did not mean something in which "afk" would literally mean "away from keyboard". Muting people for just saying the word in a totally unrelated context is just plain moronic.

 

 

 

If you don't understand that you clearly have no clue about what "interpretation" means. Fail right back at ya.

[RayOxide]

Jagex dont do anything with mutes. Pmods and stupid little robots programmed to find a really bad word or 2 bad words in a sentence.

 

 

 

Just because jagex doesnt have enough brainpower to check mutes out themselves doesnt mean they must be smart cause they made a game.

 

330+ employees - why the hell cant they actually look at mutes?

[ShadowTwisted]

The amount of humor people have these days has dwindled so much. Try to make one little joke and you get flame-sprayed. Anyways, I acknowledge that Jagex does have a lot of skill, especially if you compare the high detail now to RS Classic. However, as far as rules go, sometimes misinterpretation occurs and mistakes are made. For instance, Jagex has a ridiculously difficult monster that's almost impossible to defeat, someone finds a way to take advantage of a weakness to bring it down, Jagex updates to kill new method.

[RayOxide]

They took that down because it wasnt meant to be there - or it was more of a weakness than they wanted.

 

 

 

And misinterpritations and mistakes?

 

LOL.

Afk'ish isn't really a smart thing to say in a game that bans AFK activitiy. A 24 hours mute is certainly understandable.

330 employees. Assume 30 are assigned to bans. There are 6 million FTP, 1 million members. That's 7 million ACTIVE players, assumed to send in a report, say, once a week. That's 28 million reports a month, or 1 million per employee. Yeah, I'll bet there gonna spend a good long time thoroughly examining each and every report. Although I suppose ones from the people who report every little thing 26 times a day could be ignored, that's still an awful lot of reports. And I send in far more then 1 a week. 1 million per month per employee is 34,000 a day - 8 hour day = 70 reports a minute, more then one per second. Either they get a lot fewer reports then that (which I doubt), or they have to automate some of them. It's not really a surprise. My main surprise is that they can be so accurate; something like this is *questionably* mutable, but out of the millions of reports, virtually none are mishandled. I know that all of mine so far have been completely fair, and I can't count all of the times I said something, say it was starred out, that caused 8 people around me to go 'haha reported', but never an unfair ban. Once I did receive a questionable blackmark; I appealed it and it was repealed less then 20 minutes later.

Surely it's not smart. But muting for simply naming a word which in the context isn't even against the rules or either harmful is outrageous. Heck, why don't they throw the word on that stupid filter if they don't want it typed out.

[obfuscator]

Not surpirsing imo given being in HYT chat; I have been muted for less.

If I could say it any better than this, I would. Here's a stab at at least trying to give an alternate view.

 

They constantly point out that over 1 million accounts have been created, and at the time of this post, 100 thousand active players. Last time I checked, there were under 100 customer support members. Short of Time Control, they can't give a thorough review to each and every report, especially since there are probably a lot of BS reports from players who never read the rules.

The 1 million accounts created applies to members. There have been over 130 million FTP accounts created. However, only counting active accounts (logged on in the past week), when they broke 1 million members they mentioned 5 million active FTP, and I believe they said 6 million in a later newspost.

If I walked into a police station and said 'sir, could you tell me the best way to assassinate the president'(USA) do you think I would be detained? Yes; I probably wouldn't be permanently punished, but some sort of questioning would probably occur. Similar to Jagex's very short term mute; nothing but a little hand slap.

Not only that but posting evidence is against not only our rules but Jagex's as well remember that information is to remain confidential.
