Alg Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 What I find funny is that when someone says he`ll quit, he will be the one ranting on the next update. But yeah the forums are kinda good, except rants forum, which is a pit of doom. Only about 5% of the threads there are well made and thought out, but then again, they will be subjected to spamming and trolling.And from my observation a number of the trolls there are Tip.Iters. Does that make this forum worse? Let's face it, there's an internet cesspool rants board there vs elitist forumers here.

Wachiru Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 On the topic at hand...I, and a number of my colleagues in the former Order of the Holy Hand Grenade. (OOTHHG) Have had this piece of wisdom tucked away in the ten plus years we've been together...Runescape Official Forums are a breeding ground for leetspeak, immaturity and flaming. The reason the mods never do anything about it is because, they are part of the same, immature cliche. (In my personal opinion)I agree that they get massively out of hand oftentimes, many times due to six year old flamers who tend to try and get the "Look at me!!! I'm *censored*!!!!" (Note I intentionally inserted the censor) On the other hand, they aren't a TOTAL failure, I have had some positives in my slogging through the sea of chatspeak...Unfortunately I remember none of them... Happy debating! --Wachiru --Wachiru Below is me, when I am after flamers, haters, and various other noobly professions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeptical Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 In my opinion, the RSOF are just the result of too many immature children being confided to an unmoderated space on the internet. "Those who give up their liberty for more security neither deserve liberty nor security." Support transparency... and by extension, freedom and democracy.

Saunamajuri Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Better to Let all trolls be in one place, rather than let them spread all over the forums board.

Dragonlordjl Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Jagex re-created the "Rants" forum with the express purpose of containing all the "garbage" in it. They replaced the old "rants" with "Forum Feedback," which while it still has a lot of irrelevant garbage, the quality is slightly higher. Overall, I think Recent Updates and Future Updates are the only sections of the RSOF worth anything. The marketplace forums are a tool of corruption used by the manipulation clans; most of the offers in it are fake, intended to get suckers to believe that X item is being panic bought/sold for X arbitrary "street price" that the manipulators decide on.

MyCalmSkills Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 The Rants Forum Is Like The Spam Capital In The RSOF. It Was Taken Away Once Because People Just Made Spam Threads There But Then The Spam Spread Out Into Other Forums So They Out It Back To Keep The Spaming Out Of Other Forums. They Dont Moderate It Because Spamming Is So Constant There That You Would Spend Hours Loking All The Threads.

Maxingmck Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Yes because all you do is go to a nerdy video game fansite to claim other users as mythical beings, whom are never spoken of irl because it is a nerdy phrase, just because their sarcasm angers you and you have the sense of humor of a doorknob.

Omali Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I can't spend too much time on the RSOF without leaving in rage. It's like seeing the kids of that Westboro Baptist Church. You know it's not their fault, because they are kids and they don't know what they're talking about, but you still want to slap the [cabbage] out of them for saying it.

howbadisbad Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 After the ancient curses update I made a legit thread on the rants forum about how i thought turmoil was overpowered. Then the noobs came. I will never go to the rants forum again, lol. Hypocrite. You tell others to be nice then attempt to murder people. Nice going, you just failed life.
