funnisam Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 This is one of the most memorable threads i've seen in a long time, not only did the OP label particular people as facists, but it has turned into a nonsensical and pointless argument, irrelevant to the original subject matter. \ Most Difficult Quiz Rare drops; tzhaar-ket-om: 6 tzhaar-xil-ak: 4 tzhaar-xil-ek: 4 tzhaar-mej-tal: 1 Obsidian cape: 18 Dragon Plateskirt: 4 Dragon Platelegs: 7 Sq Shield left half: 1 Dragon Boots: 1 Dragon Medium Helmet: 11 Draconic Visage: 1 Zamorak Spear: 3 Steam Battlestaff: 1 Godsword Shards: 3 Bandos Chestplate: 1 Bandos Tassets: 1 Abyssal Whip: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hihihi727 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Well do you think you would be more offended if someone said that black people are thieves (pretending that you were black) or someone on a forum you go to saying that that the average Runescapeians IQ is 60? Also its pretty clear in the first post that his insult is not directed to all runescapians but just the people that annoyed him because they didn't want to do the pvp trick. BTW were you saying that the person who had the right to post something that included getting offended was Quelmotz? Because he was getting angry wayy before someone mentioned that all runescapians have an IQ of 60... with was sarcasm btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gin_and_Tonic Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Spend more time scaping and less time exploiting Jagex's mistakes. If you go to a strip bar, d'you spend more time asking the dancers how much they get paid than looking at their breasts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to a strip bar, d'you spend more time asking the dancers how much they get paid than looking at their breasts? It's important to know how much is expected for private shows, tips, general money thrown on stage, etc. So hopefully half and half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zierro Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Well do you think you would be more offended if someone said that black people are thieves (pretending that you were black) or someone on a forum you go to saying that that the average Runescapeians IQ is 60? Honestly, I don't get offended that much with racism. I have got picked on for being white and it bothers me just as much as getting called stupid. For some reason people think the line suddenly appears only when you bring up race, but any other insult is fine. Hate to break it to you, but race isn't the only thing people get offended by. There are many other fields such as religion, gender, age, appearance, orientation, class, nationality, etc. that people get offended by. You can rank these in the order to your liking - some are more offensive than others - but each of them deserve to be defended against unfair generalizations. You can say X is worse than Y, but you can't say it's okay to defend X but not okay to defend Y. Also its pretty clear in the first post that his insult is not directed to all runescapians but just the people that annoyed him because they didn't want to do the pvp trick. It's pretty clear that when you bring up the entire Runescape community's IQ into this, then you are not only talking about the people who won't do the trick. You're making a generalization. I mean, the majority of RS players probably don't even do PVP so how the hell can you make that claim? A more appropriate title would be "Average PVPers IQ: 60" - even though it's still ridiculous, it's not nearly as ridiculous. BTW were you saying that the person who had the right to post something that included getting offended was Quelmotz? Because he was getting angry wayy before someone mentioned that all runescapians have an IQ of 60... with was sarcasm btw. I was defending myself, and anyone else who feels that insulting the average RS IQ is a terrible way of expressing your opinion. Why you people try to defend that is a bigger mystery to me than if god exists or not. PS: Are you telling me that saying the average Runescape IQ is 60 was "sarcasm", or am I just misreading?

The OP didn't mean that the average runescapians IQ was literally 60- his intentions when he said that was to express his anger over people who didn't do the retribution trick with him. I'm not trying to defend anyone... i was just pointing out that i think that being racist is worse. But i think i misread your post because i thought you were defending Quelmotz so never mind actually i thought your argument was about something else.

But i think i misread your post because i thought you were defending Quelmotz so never mind actually i thought your argument was about something else. Actually, both have the same concept. Racism is basically stereotyping a whole group of people based entirely off there race. This thread is basically stereotyping every single person who plays runescape, and saying the have an IQ of 60. Sure, he may not "Mean it" when he says all Runescapians have an IQ of 60, but at the same time most people dont "Mean it" when they say that (insert ethnic group) can't drive/think/whatever.

Mh1456 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 It is your own fault, some people actually want to pk for real, not pvp trick -.-. pvp trickers should be punished for abusing the bh/pvp system btw. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alg Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 No they shouldn't Its so widespread now i wouldn't be surprised if people quit if its taken away. Sort of like every other 'too good to be true' trick? :lol: I remember reading about someone quitting/whining because of the MTK oversight because he invested all his money into it right when it was corrected... And also what would probably happen if clan 'merchanting' was fixed, and what DID happen when PC was fixed (New PC old XP@) I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Kurity Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Well, the thing is, 25k trick isnt some EPIC MONEY MAKING WAY WHICH MAKES MILLIONS OF MONEYS PER HOUR. Just because some people got good items, dosent mean everyone will. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alg Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I'm aware of that, just making a few comparisons to a few mildly similar cases. It sort of proves your point in that people would probably quit if it was fixed, and that's why I posted it I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Kurity Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Also, it can't be fixed without making PVP [developmentally delayed]ed and making people quit because PVP is then [developmentally delayed]ed to the extreme. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
