SanNo1 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I believe this topic is about 3 to 4 years late. Haven't really noticed a change recently. There are three sides to every story: There's one side, there's the other, and there's the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewing Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 and you didn't notice runescapers being extremely rude and disrespectful before? anyway, the community died with the last 500 incarnations of this topic How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hegelstad Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 New scammers with obvious scams -> more pissed, because they are annoying the hell outta me -> bad mood -> rude behavior -> offended players think I'ma troll.

Sir_Squab Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Trololol http://forum.tip.it/topic/281364-what-happened-to-this-community/ Wow. Exact same name and everything too. That's epic. Really, judging how mature/nice the community is, is actually very difficult. You look back a few years and you see a different community, but a few years ago I was in High School. I'm was different then then I am now. ....Wow, I just used two sentences that both use a word twice in a row. Anyways, point is, if you look back a few years and see a different community, keep in mind that a few years ago you probably had an entirely different perspective of the community, and probably life in general.

You know you wanna see it.]my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them meBuying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupineThe only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Range_This11 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 There are a thousand different interpretations of why the community has "died". To be honest, though, I never experienced any sort of community in game. That might owe some of its argumentative weight to the style in which I play (mostly on my own), but I think the last real in-game community was well before I joined Runescape. The only community that I've experienced first-hand is here at Tip.It.

Naraku893 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Where'd the friendly, helpful, respectful community of Scapers go? Since the past couple months, and especially after Free Trade and the Wilderness were re-introduced, I've noticed that many players (even level 120+) have been extremely rude and disrespectful. Has anyone else noticed this? They all have been rude and disrespectful, always. This includes Player mods, mods on here, high level players, and of course low level players.

VoidRealm Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Yeah, as most others have said, the community has never welcomed you with open arms, Free trade may have brought unwanted scammers with it, but I don't think the community has suddenly become increasingly rude, it's pretty much always been that way :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Douglas Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 If you want a nice community, join a clan. You guys are looking at the pixelated equivalent of making a best friend on a busy sidewalk - everyone's got their own place to go and thing to do. They are busy and you're not part of their picture. They'll keep doing their own thing unless and until you get in the way, and then when they say something, it usually isn't terribly nice because again, you're in their way. Occasionally you'll come across people just chatting on the street corner, and those people are nice (standing around edgeville, Ge, etc) but other than that, people are busy and typically want to be left alone to get their 'work' done (accomplish their goals). In this 'sidewalk' comparison, a clan is your family. The right clan for you will make your experience so much better. Being around an extended group of close-knit friends like a clan provides is invaluable to enjoying the community of the game. Not just a cc channel, an actual clan. It is there where you will find your friendly, helpful and respectful community. Proud Gladiator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasignhagj Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Say what you will about RS always having a bad community, but you can't deny it's harder to find people to talk to. I remember four years ago the yew trees in F2P were filled with people who you could talk to and joke around with. Now, you're lucky to even find people who will respond to "Wc Levels".

Th e Doctor Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Where'd the friendly, helpful, respectful community of Scapers go? Since the past couple months, and especially after Free Trade and the Wilderness were re-introduced, I've noticed that many players (even level 120+) have been extremely rude and disrespectful. Has anyone else noticed this? There are two kinds of scapers. Those who find playing efficiently fun. And those who find not playing efficiently fun. The efficient people arent going to waste time in game being polite with people. I'm probably one of those "rude" people. Im not playing this game to blow sunshine up your butt. Im playing to accomplish my goals. Which outside of dungeoneering doesn't involve interacting with people begging for help. If i want to help people I post in H&A, if I want to play RS i play RS There are still nice people that play who arent jerks like me though... 1. Find them.2. Add them to your friends list.3. ????4. Profit! Or in the case of people who play "just for fun" step 4 would be "Have fun!".

They contradict their parents,chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross theirlegs, and are tyrants over their teachers."
