January 5, 200620 yr Last night was a pretty normal night for me, training range at Fire Giants (I was getting close to 70 range). I logged out to get a snack, when I tried to log back in I got the disabled account message. I thought: Well it cant be too serious, I have no black marks. Oh no..oh god. PERM BANNED. For what?! advertising websites!?! All I did was tell a guy to go to Tip.it for quest help. Of corse I appeal the ban. DENIED. This is a new low for Jagex. Now for the warning! Jagex auto-perm bans anyone that types in a url in a private message. This is also a goodbye to the friends and foes I made here. No more Runescape, no more addiction. Sayonara! EDIT!!!: I apealed it a few times and I got it down to a 3 day ban! Thanks for the support everyone!! If you need help in-game pm me. Jagex realised this is my first ban, unlike before.
January 5, 200620 yr Did they give the Tip.It part as snapshot evidence, too? If so, that's ridicilous, since it's mentioned as a "safe site" to Pmods..
January 5, 200620 yr Wtf is jagex on? Oh well, this is why I don't public chat on rs unless I'm buying/selling stuff.
January 5, 200620 yr omfg thats pretty low from jagex.. I started playing World of Warcraft last week, AWESOME game dude, try it and see if you like it. At least there, you can say [cabbage], [bleep], url's, and they don't block it. You have an option where you can block it or not, it's our choice. EDIT: cabbage? rofl, you understand what i meant :P
January 5, 200620 yr Thanks a million for the warning, man. I might have lost my account (horrified look). I tell people about this site whenever I tire of their constant questions. Fortunatly it's been awhile. And, sorry about your account man. I never though Jagex would sink to the grumpy level as Disney did long ago. About that, my sister told me a story about how her friend on VMK (virtual magic kingdom) got permanantly banned for attempting to bypass the word filer, which stupidly enough filters out numbers. Another one of her friends got permanantly banned for jokingly saying she was staff. Then the 200-250 friends she had (she was well known apparantly) protested ingame. Then a staff member appeared and threatened to permanatnly ban all of them if they didn't stop. Every part of this story is true, or at least is as accurate as what she told me. Okay, mabye Jagex isn't this bad, but this is definatly a step in that direction.
January 5, 200620 yr * is jagex on? Oh well, this is why I don't public chat on rs unless I'm buying/selling stuff. It was on private msg... That's really low of them. Sorry to hear your loss :( Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant: "If I live, I will kill you, If I Die, you are forgiven." Such is the Rule of Honor.
January 5, 200620 yr They should designate official fansites. It's not like Tip.it and the rest of them are big secrets anyways.
January 5, 200620 yr They should designate official fansites. It's not like Tip.it and the rest of them are big secrets anyways. They are thinking about it. read that on some FAQ at mainsite. Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant: "If I live, I will kill you, If I Die, you are forgiven." Such is the Rule of Honor.
January 5, 200620 yr Tip.it used to be linked of the rs homepage :) erm andrew dont liek tip.it he dont trrust it hes said so in as many word, so do as they say dotn help people out be arrogent self centered people and ull b ok :)
January 5, 200620 yr Tip.it used to be linked of the rs homepage :) erm andrew dont liek tip.it he dont trrust it hes said so in as many word, so do as they say dotn help people out be arrogent self centered people and ull b ok :) my friend who is a player mod and is credited to 2 quest guides on tip.it told me that the person whom made tip.it or whatever(it IS hear say) that he was another player mod or something along those lines this is why. but this was some timeago and i dont recall all of the discussion either.
January 5, 200620 yr Silverion and light made tip.it with help from a few of us along the way, rs was linked in the early days from the runescape website, andrew in recent years has made his self clear on linking to other websites Its crap that peopel get banned for linking to a website andrew himself premoted and used to officialy use

January 5, 200620 yr Its really sad that jagex just auto bans you if you say an url. Some people may abuse this to ban people they don't like now Don't Click This774th to 99 hunting on July 16th 2007
January 5, 200620 yr i was concerned about this seeing how tip.it listed homeworlds on the main page. i thought, isnt that advertising websites violation of the rules?
January 5, 200620 yr Jagex once had link on there own site to tip.it Respect- Oy_the_Great, Lode, Bubsa, Weezcake, Thrash111, Gloric, Vmser, Pianofrieak2, Runemetsa Sigs Made By - Pink
January 5, 200620 yr Who in their right mind would actually report someone for saying the url of a site to help them -.- This is lame jagex.
January 5, 200620 yr wait, its auto ban? or they other guy has to report you.... what if you say google tip.it for help...that isnt really a url is it? idk RSN: Bantam222 [105 combat] [1578 total level]Support my quest for 1600 Skill Total!
January 6, 200620 yr blame ur jack $@! friend for reporting you. i refrence tip it all the time. that guy deserves to be pk'd.
January 6, 200620 yr my god man... im so sorry... wait... does this mean we can never say "tip.it" in game? or "msm"? or...: "i use rune hq for quests" or something along those lines... this is madness! is this the mods fault? or were jagex reading in on your account? (4 black marks for advertising a well known website... my god...) siggity siggity shwa
January 6, 200620 yr I hope Andrew's attention gets drawn to this topic. I'd like to hear what Jagex has to say as well Zorro
January 6, 200620 yr that sucks. thanks for the warning though. i always tell people about tip.it. ill have to stop now i guess =(
January 6, 200620 yr that is harsh, especially for the guy you PMed to report you. I'd say find a contact address and snail mail andrew telling him how much his employees suck. I never say the .it on the end anymore, i always just mention tip and hope they know what I mean. I've seen pmods say websites themselves though, its just not clear where the boundaries are on the issue :(.
