Bxpprod Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Please don't feed the troll guys. The report button is your friend. ;) Suggesting it was a troll If Jagex does acknowledge Suomi's accomplishment, they should probably say something along the lines of, "No, we won't give special recognition to any future players who achieve 200M in all skills." I'm not denying that Suomi's achievement is an incredible feat of dedication. I just don't think such an accomplishment should be encouraged for others to follow, simply because it's not healthy. Neither was Layyr smashing out 157M runecrafting, and subsequently Jagex having named the NPC Larriar. This isn't an industry were the health of the player is a huge priority, and when there are attempts to curb game use. In fact, it is entirely beneficial for the game company to NOT have you playing in moderation. The quicker you gain a tie to the game, the harder to leave. Health of players, sure, that's a moral issue that some businesses care about in order to gain some reputation for being DECENT, but overall, if it gains them nothing, why do it. 4 [bleep] OFF HOW ARE U SO [bleep]ING LUCKY U PIECE OF [bleep]ING SHIT [bleep] [bleep] [wagon] MUNCHER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not denying that Suomi's achievement is an incredible feat of dedication. I just don't think such an accomplishment should be encouraged for others to follow, simply because it's not healthy. It's an accomplishment that is absolutely impossible to obtain by playing in moderation, regardless of how efficient you are and how skilled you are at time-management. Again, nobody pursued 99s religiously until the release of the skillcapes. Nobody cared about the CW professional cape until it became a trimmed comp cape requirement. Hopefully there never becomes an in-game reward for 200M all skills (or even 200M in any skill). Agreed, I think this is why there's no Global Newsfeed message for 200m's aswell, and I'm guessing when this game was made, 200m in any stat wasn't expected, ever. ^^My blog of EoC PvM, lols and Therapy.^^My livestream- Currently: Offline :(Offical Harpy Therapist of the Mad[hide=Lewtations]Barrows drops: Dharok's helm x2, Guthan's helm, Ahrim's top, Hood and skirt, Torag's hammers, Karils skirt, Karil's top, Torag's helm, Verac's skirt, Verac's Flail, Dharok's Platebody.Dag kings drops: Lost count! :wall:4k+ Glacors, 7 Ragefires, 4 Steadfasts, 4 Glaivens, 400+ shards![/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai_tong Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 [Arbitrary update on how much xp suomi has left because it is super important] I'm actually enjoying watching further down the list, the competition of sorts (loosely using that terminology) between Alkan, Dragonseance and Kingduffy. I know Alkan is smashing through serious Attack xp at Icefiends, but it is still rather close. Looking like he'll be next to 3B though. I am, however, also looking forward to seeing DrSeance smash out some serious xp in the near future. Arbitrary remark supporting Suomi which he obviously needs] Oh come on... don't be so negative about it. This kind of thing doesn't happen every day, so just let people enjoy it.This kind of thing has been happening every day for a year. "This" being supporting suomi. Do you cheer for your favourite football team every game during the playoffs, but cease to do so when they reach the Super Bowl? He doesn't need motivation, and I don't think anyone here is trying to give him any - people are simply commenting because they're excited.I'm explaining why Aussie posted that because you went on a side track. People are bored of seeing the same posts for the past year, does that explain it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImDustinHoffmanIRL Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Wow I'm digging the football reference. I'm certainly still screaming my lungs out for the Baltimore Ravens. If Joe Flacco is Superbowl MVP than he could possibly have the best postseason in NFL quarterback history. Earlier somebody said that the new skill isn't coming out until summer time. Is that verified? And is that in reference to the first new skill to come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would still get bored, people grow out of things. Would it happen less? Quite possibly. But it is much easier targeting those who are likely to end up playing constantly because of the addictive nature of MMO-gaming than the steady gamers.

Platinum_Myr Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Well.. I know originally the gowers didn't believe 99 was reasonable either, but they needed a cap. 200m max xp was created because it's close to the max value an integer can store (2b ish). Remember they store the xp as 10x the value in order to allow for partial xp values (so if you have 200 xp you actually store the value 2k) They rounded the max value to 200m as a max inorder to a) prevent overflow and b) make it a nice round number. 2 Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebrim Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The max value is 2.147b still. He explained why that limits it to 214.7m in visible Xp. There's nothing incorrect with it. 1 Agilitizing my way to 1,000,000,000xp!Follow my progress on my Youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/The1Jebrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viv Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Yea and then skill capes came out and people went ocd about getting at least 1 99 then people realized they liked the self validation from having a 99 and then they said hmm ill go for some harder 99s and then they either 1.) noticed they were kinda close to max and then maxed or 2.) maxed cape came out and they wanted that cape (Its been out quite awhile) Then when people finally maxed they either 1.) grew some logic and quit 2.) didn't care and still played. 3.) went on a 200m gaining highscore rank rampage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebrim Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 The 2009 generation of maxed players were mostly friends of the handful of maxed players in 2008.
