Chaos_Reborn Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 it does sound very ugly, the "an"s and such. But nevermind, people on tip.it are boring and too serious anyways, so it doesn't surprise me. Lose faith in the human race? That went too far as well, you sounded like me real life friend who's given up his hopes on human beings... I'd totally agree if you said lose faith in the tipiter race, but human race, oh boy, that's something different :shame: Or? :anxious: Visit my Runescape comedy website, based on in-game screenshots.

anauijaram Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Oh, I know what you're saying, I'm just saying that you're pathetic to completely ignore what he posted just to nitpick. Also, your grammar is quite sad, especially for one who is mocking another's.bloodveld' date=' people like you make me wana castrate everyone to prevent more of you[/quote']Why thank you, I am quite manly. Although I doubt you'd have the strength cut off anything of that size. I read his article, big deal people play differently. That doesnt mean he should get praised for saying people play mmorpgs differently. Thats like saying "Hey that car over there is blue!" and then someone gives you a pat on the back and says good job buddy! I have more than enough strength to break twigs.. i dont know what your talking about... "Why thank you, I am quite manly" your dumb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos_Reborn Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 well, bloodveld's avatar and his pictures of a weird cow does look quite... :-s But anyways, as long as we get the point of what the author means, it's okay. I never get respected for hustling pots, rocks and *cough* chocolate dusts *cough*, so I'd agree. People generally don't accept my occupation on Runescape, but I do make loads off them, 5k a piece.

DragnFly Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 I just cleaned up the article a bit, fixing afew spelling and grammar errors I had noticed in it, as well as slightly rewording afew small parts for clarity. Yes, that does include fixing the usage of the word "an", where it does not belong. I totally agree. I am sorry if you want a long complicated post explaining why I agree 'cos you aren't going to get one. I just do agree. Thats perfectly fine. Sheesh....................................................... =D> You put a lotta time into that............. Not as much as you might think. The original, that is excluding the corrections I just made, took about ~3 hours to write. But then again, guess it helps when you have an idea what you want to say. =D> =D> =D> Great job! And ignore those guys who are only jealous so they nag you about grammar. jealous? It wasnt very good... I can sit there and say the obvious about games and I dont get a pat on the head or a cookie, but some guy comes along and makes a big post about how people play games differently and you guys all wana spin on his lap? You people are pathetic I think you are overlooking one of the main points of the article. Its not just that people "play differently", but also pointing out that people should show respect for the ways others choose to play. That being said, you're entitled to your opinion. Again, thanks to everyone. D's guide to 1 Item objects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viv Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 that was better then the tip it times in my opinion. really i mean merchanting is not scamming. some people do not like to join clans. some people would prefer to chill with friends on top of the varrock bar. some people hate doing quest others hate the combat so they would rather do skills and they get flamed.

dargonhuman Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 There are also opportunists, such as those that stumble upon a player whom does not know the average rate an item is presently selling for. Or those whom take advantage of new releases, such as construction, and sell supplies and equipment for many times more than they would be worth once things had settled down. Would either of these be considered scamming? Actually, yes. Price gouging, in the manner you're speaking of, is illegal in rl for a long time, and corporations can be shut down (banned) if they're caught doing it. If someone took advantage of a clueless foreigner in real life by overcharging them on something, would that be right? No, therefore it shouldn't be right in merchanting, either. When someone (or a group of someones) takes advantage of an easy market (for example, overcharging building supplies after a disaster or gouging prices on a brand-new product), is that ethical? No, and the same should hold true in RS. The reason it doesn't is because RS doesn't (or at least shouldn't) significantly affect people's lives beyond the LogOut button, but it doesn't change the fact that any merchant who charges a newbie 120gp for a cooked chicken, or who took advantage of construction by hoarding planks and selling them at anything more than 25gp are, in fact, the scum of the game and were cheating their trusting fellows. While I do understand the point you were trying to make in the original post, the fact is, the majority of merchants are a bunch of lying scamming jerks. There are some good, honest merchants who aren't in it for a fast buck, but they're, sadly, a dying breed. --Darg-- Part of the Star Traks network. (^^Clicky!)

bigbadbarron2 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Basicly the point of the article is Runescape is what ever you want it to be wather its sitting and boxing with friends in your house or killing the black dragons in the evil chickens lair. ITS A GAME.......PLAY IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
