Jagex already working on a fix so not really needed :)

Not really

 

One of thier fixes to 26king was the investment box in the new mini game.

 

 

 

It was just a bad attempt to make people spend millions on the mini game to take money 26king is bring into the game out.

 

Not really working even though the game just came out prices are still rising / dropping

 

 

 

please be more creative at trying to get a first post

Uhm, Mobilising armies will never take the amount of money 26k'ing has brought in. Especially no time soon. It's to get rid of junk, things that are used to trade expensive items at a higher price. E.g, a new item released traded off with junk, which is unsellable, now has a purpose.

 

 

 

This should be in Bugs & Suggestions, too? :roll:

The investment box was a means for giving players a chance to use their junk and/or try and cut down on junk trading.

 

What smellysocks said is true, and they're still actively saying it scince this week's update so MA investment is obviously not the intended solution.

 

If you come to these forums with the sole intent of getting a few bumps on your rsof thread it'd help if you were a bit more respectful to members of the community.

Hey im not making this stuff up

 

the investment isnt supposed to take exactly as much as 26king is putting in.

 

Its just ONE of the (many?) changes that they're introducing to fix 26king.

 

 

 

Mod MMG does give tips in his cc

[glasscube]

Except no one uses junk when they 26k, so it makes no difference. And no, the investments do not take money out of the game. What it does is takes ITEMS out of the game, items which usually never sell in the first place.

 

 

 

And no, I do not feel like going to RSOF just to read your/someone elses idea on how to stop 26king. Maybe you should paste it here.

[Thirtyfour]

I ever said it takes actual "coins" out people christ.

 

 

 

Just use the quick find code on the rsof and post about after reading the thread for one before posting here.

 

Someone else can even go there and post it here themselves.

 

I have 6 different forums to look after I dont want to have to reply to zybez hq tipit and other sites i just want ONE BIG thread on the official forums that way more people look at it and even jagex mods think about what ACTUALLY WORKED IN THE PAST

[Juhnie]

I'll quote your thread here before people start complaining that they have to go to the RSOF.

 

 

 

It's something trolls really often like to grab on. Copy it to the first post if ya want.

Hey everyone, a pker of RSC and old wild here.

 

Ive been around pking used to be my main income whe it was great and LEGIT.

 

Ive recently even stepped into the wild and experienced FIRST HAND how bad PKING has gotten since the first update in 07 or so. Ever since the new Bounty worlds though ive been giving pking a shot. Its not all it used to be. there's a lot of people making easy money in THE WILD a place that used to be FEARED! BLACKED OUT on peoples maps. People used to NEVER want to end up in the wild for anything besides clues for most. Only true pkers were found in the old wild... And my good friends the lv 3 looters :). Sadly, not any more....

 

 

 

The wild and pking worlds is now home to an exploit called 26king ( other wise known as 26k trick 76king )

 

TO 26k: You find a partner that wants to "trick" around your combat level with it isnt hard to do and not MUCH OF A RISK since:

 

1. Your being attacked by someone that doesnt have anything on them besides 26,000 coins. Your sure because you check inventory every time. 27 free slots ad 26k shown every time.

 

2. You drag the partner out to a safe spot before making the kill, preventing any chances of being attacked by other players

 

3. Your geared in most cases your best DEF gear possible along with food JUST IN CASE something goes wrong SOMEHOW.

 

 

 

Now people are making millions and millions a day, HOUR even from 26king. Bringing items HIGH levels are supposed to work for into the game from nowhere. Godswords, Barrows gear, dragon items. The new pvp items that are only... about 3 weeks old are even being dropped with low to no EP.

 

 

 

As a PKer I see it as a way to never have to leave the wild, but as a player thats making his money off items that are dropping from NOWHERE by people that really dont deserve the things they're getting. Player mods, highly known clan chat leaders, people that post in jagex recognized forums too all 26k.

 

 

 

-------

 

I know this because ive spoken with a lot of pkers and 26kers... Half want to make a "living" off 26king, and half want to end it somehow.

 

Since jagex has tried and tried again adding to the wealth of the 26kers I got a few players to discuss past updates that worked and COULDNT be exploited in the MASSES as well as 26king.

 

 

 

The answer, is making bounty hunter, and maybe pking worlds too, like "Classic Bounty Hunter" by adding the one rule that adds the OLD DANGER back to the wild.

 

 

 

-----Pick up Penalty

 

If you looted You couldn't leave the bounty area for Three whole minutes, and depending on how much your loot you picked up was worth made you more likely to be a target.

 

--------

 

 

 

Now for Pking worlds that would mean If you got a kill AND LOOTED you couldn't go in to a bank or GE safe zone for three minutes and other players were more likely to have you as a target meaning:

 

1. You had a bunch of pkers teleporting to you, and even more now since this bounty wild worlds are more packed with HUNDREDS of players in a single world where the only place you can run is wild levels 1 to 56.

 

2. It would be mroe competitive for other players and not everyone would want to risk PKing except for pkers. 26king would still exist BUT it would take too much effort for anyone to want to risk NEARLY as much as they do now.

 

People risk tens, and hundreds of millions just to 26k knowing they'll most likely get away with it.

 

 

 

One simple rule, PENALTY would put a lot of people in their place.

 

The wild full of pkers isnt supposed to be a place where you sit for 30 minutes waiting or EP to go up SAFELY for some that bring a pouch to avoid actual pking at lv 1 edge wild.

 

 

 

We've thought about it and this rule MAINLY effects edge pkers the first probably 20 levels of the wild really since people that pk deep in groups take more tha 3 mins or so to get out of the wild p2p.

 

Free to play probably should have the penalty time lowered since there's less food to bring there maybe two minutes

Juhniz, I was just about to post that because this fellow felt his idea was really really good.

 

 

 

Anyway, on second thought this is a horrible idea. You think someone isn't going to bring a bunch of saradomin brews and pineapple pizzas? And pray? ancient magicks? Dragon spear? This idea may hinder 26king but it will not fix the 'problem'.

While it might not completely fix it, it would add that extra element of danger to it and make it more difficult, which is why I think it should be added before Jagex can find the solution to completely remove it.

Exactly like i said (christ people just dont read these days)

 

You CAN NOT completely remove 26king since there will always be people looking to get rich quick.

 

 

 

ITS NOT AN ORIGINAL FIX its just an idea to REINTRODUCE something that WORKED IN THE PAST

 

 

 

This will INDEED cripple 26king especially for the lower levels, pures 1-20 defense. People that have no business in the wild. The kind that never pked a day in thier life back when the old wild was there. because it requires, getting used to, team work, and its 3 minutes too much for thier ADD to allow them to bother.

 

 

 

It will weed out the majority of the current 26kers out there.

How do you know it will cripple 26king? Who are you to decide what someones business is in the wilderness? What makes you think they never pked in their life? How does drinking saradomin brew require teamwork? And if 3 minutes is to much for their ADD how are they even playing runescape?

 

 

 

This may 'cripple' 26king, but people are not going to be at any disadvantage doing this except maybe people with low defense who do not receive benefits from the boost of brews. Even then if you are desperate enough you can just use ancient teleports to teleport deeper into the wilderness walk a little bit and then teleport back.

 

 

 

It doesn't really do anything, it just bothers legitimate pkers and 26king users.

Working is present tense, as it isnt out yet, they said they're working on fixing, even "nuking" it, Been 3 weeks or so since statues release, not sure when they'll patch it up, prices are ludicrous.
