Urza285 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Their business stance has changed so much recently i'm sorta glad I quit before I invested another 1000 hours into something that could go to hell in a hand-basket tomorrow. Usually i'm optimistic, maybe i'll check back in a few months and something changes for the better but as of now i'm going to stay away as to not disappoint myself.In the end everything dies anyways so might as well enjoy what you like and leave when you're ready to move on to other entertaining things. 1 Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!

T. Skill Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 This update is a lot better than the ones we have been getting relating to the SOF in my opinion, and I can't even use these pendants because I'm F2P. Pirate Rosetta stone. Learn a language while you scape.Sounds interesting, but these days how many people really speak Pirate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baffler Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I found myself cared less and less on this kind of updates. after the bxw, raf, mlp, rof, sgs, rof2, rof3...What the hell are those >.< Bonus exp weekend, refer a friend, members loyalty program, squeal of fortune (?), Solomons general store. That's my guess anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I think the rof meant sof, and sof2 sof3 are the squeel updates. (I tihnk he believes it was reel of fortune?) The other ones are all obvious Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

brad1431 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 can we go a month or two with them cramming their greed down our throats, everyone hates squeel and this new soloman, we all hate microtransactions and are sick of having them crammed down our throat, when will they listen to their customers?

For all the hate these things get, I see a lot of items from both the Squeal and Solomon every day.

Platinum_Myr Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I don't hate solomon. I dislike buyable spins, but Solomon's store (as it currently is) is pretty neat. If it gets non-cosmetics, then I would be disappointing. 1 Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mod Mark basically said it when he announced no BXPW Jagex have said they won't sell non-cosmetic items in the solomon store. Obviously they can change their stance on this. However, *currently* the store doesn't sell non-cosmetic items. I refuse to judge based on possible future actions they could take. Their track record is not great (Wildy/Free Trade revival, Squeel of Fortune buying spins, and their change of heart about RWT) However, the store currently is perfectly fine. 1 Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"And for a limited time put your shiny new assassin outfit to the test and earn double thieving experience up to 50k for each piece!" And there you have cosmetic items, with experience slapped on for people who just want to buy experience. Or just making the pendants of skill cosmetic items themselves (little skill logos on a string for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brad1431 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 you do realize that they also said that they would never allow RS to be a game where people who have more money in real life can gain an advantage in any way..... Yet we now have buyable spins...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
