audee Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 why would govt want to do so? did RS actually harmed their citizen in any way? If there is, i would like to know what's that gonna be.... :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitokage5 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Why would they shut down RS? Its amking them alot of money becaus eall of the members on RS (like me) are paying them 5 bucks a month, lets do some math here, about 10k membveers (estimated) multiply that by 5,and you get 50k, This is most likely WAY off but it was a guess.

lpinkus Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Ridiculous. Who the heck would feel the need to shut down RS? Not sure if you needed to post this due to reasonable doubt :) Also, Metroid, why is there an offensive link in your sig? lpinkus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotsol Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 if that happen and all chat games shut down gamers of america would over rule usa and zezima would become dictator RSN: 1 day late | Private chat: On | 60 ATTACK | 81 STRENGTH | 72 HITPOINTS | | 80 MAGIC | 13 PRAYER | 1 DEFENSE | 65 COMBAT | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcturus Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 if that happen and all chat games shut down gamers of america would over rule usa and zezima would become dictator Lol? What kind of government would try to shut down an international enterprise like Jagex anyway. It wouldn't be possible, Jagex can just relocate the servers :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caligo Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 If a government were to take action against any MMORPG company don't you think they'd nail WoW first? It's way bigger than Runescape. It actually ruins peoples lives, lol. The government and video games do not mix....as a future game designer...I must say that I would have to be very very unhappy should the government interfere with games...any more than they already have that is.....(thank you Rockstar...-_-') X Caligo X(I know, X's are stupid.

gonpost Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Dude, the government doesn't care. Some of the radical conservatives within the government or even independent might, but they have much bigger battles to fight. Runescape is on the bottom of the ladder as far as violence goes. Your friend doesn't know what he's talking about. Runescape Name: "unbug07"Expand your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they net plenty, but it's less than what you said. I find it funny when everyone talks about goverments getting involved with video game violence and such. Yes, there is "violence" in RS, but if you pay attention, you'll notice how well it's integrated into the RS world. Talk to the characters, do the quests - no NPC ever tells you to kill someone for no reason. Mostly they just tell you long, boring stories. Now *that's* more true to real life! :) lpinkus lpinkus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
