Oh yes, Jagex should do a complete rollback to help around 50-100 players, hurting hundreds of thousands of other player's accounts in the process. Sounds grand.

Do you realize if they did a rollback it would go all the way to the last update? Meaning when construction came out.

 

 

 

Please get your facts straight before thinking you are right. Because you're not.

A few months ago, I had about 20m and thought I would never get enough for a phat.

 

 

 

I did have one, again a few months before that (a green) but stupidly decided to sell it when it was 11m. At that time my precious green had almost gone up 5 times it value. Whenever I logged on I was thinking about my "loss" and that I would never get a phat.

 

 

 

But i stayed rational and said myself that IF I atleast want to make a bit more money in the long run, that I should invest in smaller rares. Duke (who i know I little bit) advised me to invest in masks, so I did what he told me to and bought 2 green, 2 blue and 1 red mask.

 

 

 

A bit later, I decided to quit Runescape for a while (that was around November 2005). When I logged in again at RS in Januari I found out that my masks had doubled in value. I saw that the red boosted my money the most, so i made enough money to upgrade my blue mask to a red. Then again, I lost the sens to play and quit for another 3 months.

 

 

 

Now, 2 weeks ago, when I came back, i found out that my masks had again, doubled in value (and even more). But then Construction came out, and I quickly sold my masks before they dropped to much. I came out with 97m which I merchanted in 2 days to 101M. But I still hadnt enough for a purple, the cheapest, phat. Suddenly, someone was selling it for 100.5M and I jumped on it like a tiger on his prey and bought it.

 

 

 

AFTER ALL THAT TIME I HAD A PHAT, I COULDNT BELIEVE IT!!!!

 

 

 

So you see, if you hold on, you can get there. Believe me, 5 months ago I would never have thought that I would have a phat and now I got one, and even 3M left :-).

 

 

 

Counterside: I bought the phat for 100.5M. 3 Days later it was only 80M anymore. Not too bad if you know that I'm planning to keep the phat forever (not merchant it or something, or sell if its high enough IMO. I dont make that mistake again!), but still, I could have left with 20 spare mills (a santa and green mask anyone :D)...

 

 

 

I GOT A PHAT AND IM PROUD OF IT!!!

 

 

 

Ow yeah, I'm f2p so dont say that only members can afford it.

 

 

 

wanna share :lol: ineed lots of money for constructuon

Jagex saves data right before they do updates, and not at other times. So it would have to go back to construction. I also think its selfish to want some pixel items back. Its just a game dude.

Did you think this through before you posted it? It's not us greedy kids that make it hard for Jagex to decide if they'll do a rollback or not, it's the majority. Think about it for a second. It's not like they save it every hour, i'd say they make a recovery point once a day. On World 111, there can only be 2000 players at most, and based on the video, there was i'd say top 300 players in fally. One lost a phat, others some barrow armor and then some other random stuff. There is mostly always a minimum (sp?) of 100k people playing. If they did a rollback, at least 99k players would be mad. Hmmm...which would they choose? 1k players mad or 99k? I want to see you try and tell 100k people that you're doing a rollback because 100 people lost items.

You greedy kids ARE the majority, thank you very much.

 

 

 

Also, don't even start me on telling 100k people bad news...in my line of work I have to relay bad news to plenty of people, and not by posting it on a website...I actually talk to the people, and trust me...it's much worse news than "Hey johnny, I regret to inform you that you're going to have to train that 20k strength experience over again."

Hopefully some day you may be enlightened with wisdom like theirs, but don't count on it.

20k Str exp? Like i said, Jagex does not make a save point every hour. It's every day at most, and more likely it's every 48 hours. Do you know how much can happen in just 2 hours? Let alone 48. Look how many people here are campin out at dust devils for a chain, what if one just got 1? Everytime i go to shanty pass i see some1 in verac going to KQ. It's not just the "greedy kids" :roll: it's just common sense. It's like a business, sometimes you have to take a small loss in order to make more profit later.

I guarantee you they back the system up every day.

 

 

 

Now for my point, grow a heart. Everything isn't always about you you you. Sometimes you have to understand the situations of others.

if jagex doesnt have a reset if proves they care nothing for there players and only money.

 

 

 

considering the fact that to get a partyhat you need to be rich really rich, and most people with then are players from the very beginning of runescape.

 

 

 

if they dont reset im quitting this game for good. i did not even lose anything. i would quit even if all it ment was they lost 5 dollars a month from me. i just cant play a game for people that care so little for players.

 

 

 

the messed up, if they cant own up to that, then they dont deserve my bizness

 

 

 

I think if you would pay attention, the reason they said they weren't going to reset is because it would hurt alot more people than it would help. Let's say I has just made 10m at barrows, or gotten a D. Chain from the Kalphite Queen, but I had to give that up because some other people got killed? The point wait, maybe 100-200 people were killed all told, but rolling back gamesaves would affect -THOUSANDS- of people. Tens, no HUNDREDS of thousands, all for the misfortune of a select few. Now I do sympathize for the people who lost their items, and I'm sure the good people at JaGex do as well, but they have to think of everyone else. They can't disadvantage everybody just because of an isolated group.

 

 

 

To put it bluntly ...

 

 

 

"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."

I guarantee you they back the system up every day.

 

 

 

 

i suppose you work for jagex then?

 

 

 

backing up every day would just be stupid.

Without reading the last 8 pages I'll say this. Because a couple of people got killed and ONE lost a party hat (ONE, from the source himself) they should screw THOUSANDS of people who would lose a ton of advancement and time put in to achieve the advancement? I dont think so.

 

 

 

Everyone who says they'll quit if it isnt? Watch the door on the way out.

No, it doesn't mean that Jagex doesn't care, and anyway the people there had loads of chances to run, if they didn't want to then it's their own fault, u dun see ancient magicks doing 99 damage to people do u? And the amount of exp lost compared to the party hat would be much more in terms of money I presume.

I guarantee you they back the system up every day.

I think you meant: not backing up every day would be stupid.

if they reset it will efect thousands uneffected by the glitch, and a handful effected

well if you do decide to quit then i wont mind taking some of the items you dont need. :D

wow, a few people lost items, and just cause of that, everyone else has to have their hard work and efforts reset? Jagex isn't the selfish one here, you are...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just let this dam post die, a rollback is impossible now, 2 days l8r and u still expect a rollback? LMFAOZORZROF!2211, ok sorry for the spamm but just let this post die, meh :x

wow, a few people lost items, and just cause of that, everyone else has to have their hard work and efforts reset? Jagex isn't the selfish one here, you are...

 

 

 

Yeah the topic starter is the selfish person.

 

 

 

There are so many items that weren't invented in the beginning.

 

 

 

I would lose my Verac's Helmet and Dragon Platelegs permenantly since I couldn't get them.

 

 

 

I like this line.

 

 

 

cocacolabottle is very selfish.

what is this a little sob story, i see poepl around with phat that have not been playing since they came out, and they have worked hard on this game to make the money to buy a phat, maybe you shld quit, i mean to jagex $5 isnt that much really is it, and maybe the game would be alot better without someone like you acting like a 5 year old that is just moaning because he cant have something

k dude, if they did a reset they would reset me getting to 73 mage and 64 fire making and the 6.6mil i just merchanted a couple days i dont think that a glitch will make jagex reset or roll back

I got even better idea for you, why don't you go to time machine, go to the time the party hats weren't rare and see that nobody knows what you're talking about?

 

 

 

Well, it won't affect the future, but it will prove you crazy.[if 'crazy' isn't allowed, please tell me what word I can use]

If they wouldn't reset the game when hundreds of crackers were duped why the hell would they reset it for the dozen people who lost items now?

I lost my newest item :cry: :cry:

 

 

 

My obby cape :cry: Brand new aswell...

plz no rollback i just dun horror from the deep
