Zoov Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 They probably got paid well to do it.QFT. I personally don't like it, but hey, it makes them money. Seeing as how I'm not on the homepage for more than 2-3 seconds at a time, I really don't care too much. Honestly, I wasn't trolling. I don't do that. Just saying that they care about money.

Poppet Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I personall don't see the problem or how it can possible effect people. It isn't covering anything up, or taking up space used by anything useful. It is only taking up the area that was a MA picture, which took up a fair amount of space. From a pure business standpoint, thats a hell of a lot of space that can be used for advertising and some nice extra income. This. Ever since the GI. Joe sides came the only ad that comes up is a Flash one for the GI. Joe movie. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel555555 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 there's a a G I joe the movie :o [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chained_life Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Lol, I don't care, just makes them look like amateurs... when you have addicting games and runescape advertising it so much, you know it's gonna be a terrible movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatleMusic Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Do you think this new advertisement has something to do with the recent poll Jagex had released to their players about movies? I noticed that they were selling something that would come out on a DVD/blu-ray disc. I think this ad may have something to do with that. I can't really think of what Jagex is onto right now. First they give us a poll that doesn't really fit in with the others, and now they put a strange ad on the side. Any ideas for what they are up to?

If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system. Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare?

BeatleMusic Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I just found a Jagex Mod post on a forum thread saying that the new advertisement will be just temporary! That means that Jagex already has plans of removing it soon. I'm still trying to figure out why they're putting it there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
being_true Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 i kinda like it maybe if they advertised something id want to see i would like it more... i really dont vare either way doesnt affect me at all and only helping others not hurting anyone 98% Of teenagers surround their minds with rap music, if you're part of the 2% that stayed with rock, put this in your signature, ROCK IS BETTER!

LegsOSkill Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 JaGeX is a very large company and RuneScape is played on a global scale, you can't imagine companies not wanting to put up advertisements, players will see the advertisements, then go out and spend money on whatever the advertisement was.

Shelby_Polo Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 The advertisement doesn't both me in the least bit; and I'm especially glad they didn't use the same type of ad as that damn X-Man one... Whatever the amount of income Jagex gets from ads, I'm all right with them. Suggest a poll for Tip.it - Here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
