Abc1230 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 As you may know, I'm getting 99 fishing by heavy rod fishing. The exp is amazing and the extra agility and strength exp is awesome, but there is one problem. It's those idiots doing barbarian training >.> They ask the most rediculous questions "du u hav a hatchit i can boro"... why would I have a hatchet while I'm fishing? "can i hav ur bow"... I'm fishing... "where can i find otto".. you're standing right next to him. "wot do u use as bait" "can i hav bait" "ware are mith dragons"... I didn't mind answering questions at first but it's just rediculous. I've tried turning public to friends and put it back to public when nobody is there just to find out that someone has apparently reported me for being a bot. Sure, some players know how to use a GUIDE, but the vast majority of them are just [bleep]ing idiots. [/rant] YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Is_Great Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Just curious, how do you find out if you've been reported? Also, I know your feeling, because it happens irl too, some people just ask everything and not try to find out themselves :thumbdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tintdawg Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I love how they think that they have helped out the world by reporting you. I agree with you guys, I am usually willing to help people but when they keep asking over and over it gets annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooferfish Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I know the feeling, I have a lot of the same questions about the same things, from a lot of different people. It does get annoying answering the same questions over and over again. But they are from different people. There are a lot of ignorante and misinformed people in RS. Maybe you could try suggesting a fan site if you can manage that without getting reported for advertising... :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quelmotz Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Just continue to ignore them by permanently switching public chat to "off" or "friends" or whatever. I don't think Jagex will be so idiotic to ban someone who's clearly not botting for botting. So don't worry about getting banned. Click here for an awesome suggestion to revive smithing!

snefru0 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 A while back I asked Jagex via the messageing system about this. I confess to being very bored at all this as well so I turn all messengers off. According to them, it's fine to turn messengers off as that is what the buttons are for. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep Tails Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Agreed. I felt like killing myself after a noob attached himself (or was it a guy?) to me for 2 hours. I even logged into another world, and he FOLLOWED me. He asked some really dumb questions, even after I answered around 4 questions, and told him to do some research instead of wasting more of my time. Here are the ones I remember: weres teh plac were i can catch white things how i catch stuf and so on. By the 5th question I was about to explode. :oops: :evil: Follower of GuthixThe quill is a miracle, for it drinks darkness and sheds light. Oh right, by the way, I'm a girl.

duncdar2 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Yeah, altough I don't get many question on RuneScape, I'm a staff member of a certain top 20 RSPS and get about the same question 10 times a day. "wer can i get claws" or "how do i get fast monies" and the common "are the exp rates fast?". It gets incredibly annoying but meh, it's a big server and a lot people play it so naturally instead of reading the forums which is required to download the server(they need to register for chances to get far into the game) and looking at guides, they just ask the nearest game staff.

JoeDaStudd Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 They do get awful annoying. The worse thing is when they don't listen then moan you wouldn't help them. I spend about 2 hours at DK's with a noobie team (luckily I was maging). There were 2 newbie guys and refused to listen to my advise. They each died twice and had to tele about 3 times. How hard is it to;Go up the ladder if I tell them to (killing sup then primes spawns with rex getting one of them stood on his spawn....) Stand the north west side when killing supreme Put magic protect prayer on when prime is about to spawn next to them Not stand in Rex's spawn location 2 seconds after I say hes about to spawn Keep your prayer active (somehow one of them managed to use up all there p pots in 2 minutes?!?!) I find the more you help people the more they want. I still offer a free tele to lumby for lunars/ancienters when they need it as well as offer things, but quests/miniquests and general locations (ie taking them there) are a no-no for me now.

lildragslayr Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 i am not trying to offend anybody but if your just standing there for countless hours they should be a option to see if they have their chat off or and such and for mods to check they should have to know (gold mods only) what you were doing if you have been doing the same exact thing for about 3 hours you ar either 1 of 2 things a bot of completely addicted so i wish that you couldjust do that and about the questions don't be rude hold a pickit sign that says stop bothering me [/bads] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I ask a question, I ask it once, and only if the guides I know, like Tip.It, Runewiki, and RuneHQ, don't make sense. (like happens sometimes.) And it is basic common sense that following someone and endlessly asking questions, after you're told that you're not going to get any more answers, is wrong. I was disinformed when I started members, but I explored, died a few times when I wandered somewhere silly, (Dungeons anyone?) and found out about things myself. The people who always ask before thinking are being selfish by acting so childishly, even if they ARE kids. Follower of GuthixThe quill is a miracle, for it drinks darkness and sheds light.

Ralph Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 you cant bot barbarian fishing. therefore you should not be scared. i get reported for saying crap, i dont rant about it. ranting about noobs is sad, do it when you find an MMO WITHOUT 'noobs'. I have lived my life to the best of my ability, but I have not been able to escape fate, anger, or pain. Bring me the answers, and the road that leads to truth, reveal to me once and for all, how all of this will end.Shadows cannot exist without the light.
