superway25 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 They're fixing it soon though. It's crazy what some noobs will pay for armor they cant wear. I guess Jagex will fix it at the next update in about 5 hours. http://bugtracker_v4.runescape.com/lang ... s.ws?cat=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobgoblin11 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Er, sorry but how is it scamming? It isn't a bug, it isn' deliberately deceiving another person, it isn't cheating...How is it scamming? It just trading money for items 99/99 Fletching, 99/99 Cooking, 96/99 Strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't a bug, it isn' deliberately deceiving another person, it isn't cheating...How is it scamming? It just trading money for items Because they do not know that they cannot wear it, and that it will be useless for them, especially after the bug is fixed. 99 Ranged F2P achieved 21 November (2961st) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon_lord Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 It's 100% scammming. It's noobs like you that give P2P a bad name among free players. Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator? No Tip.Iters were harmed in the making of this post.

Scamming has 2 "m's" in it, not 3. #2. Oh the irony! #3. To the best of my knowledge, the main reason F2P'ers resent P2P'ers is because we get updates and they don't. #4. Read this link, it might come in useful sometime in the near future #5. Don't post just to call someone a noob - it's pointless as it is degrading to yourself but highly amusing to the other person, so it defeats the point of your posting.

tefda Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Y'know, if I had been F2P for life and I didn't have any members items and was mining Rune Essence back in the day. I would have paid ANYTHING to get at least 1 members item in my bank to prevent my Rune Essence from becoming regular essence. If you recall, if you have one members item in your bank the day before/day of the change to Rune Essence all your essence became pure essence. I went back to F2P during that time and I was incredibly glad that I had kept a whole bunch of my Members gear, otherwise the 20k essence I had would have been turned to regular essence. Perhaps these "noobs" are preparing for the next "pure"-whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is bug abusing, since it is a known bug that they are currently F2P and everyone knows they're not supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps these "noobs" are preparing for the next "pure"-whatever. Possiably, but most likely not. I believe that they're collecting this armor as a social status to prove how long they've been playing the game. Back in RSC Charcoal was tradeable for a short while, and if you got it, you had a higher social status then others because you had charcoal and nobody else did, it also made you feel special. This also happened when the tourist trap quest was released. You were able to get the the "red card" (also known as the shanty discliamer) on RSC and was sold for unbeleiveable amounts beause it was something that only YOU could have an no one else.

They may still be able to have it on if they're wearing it when it's updated, but Jagex may even have some way around that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if i'm wrong but I don't think they can wear it now either cause completion of the Slug Menace quest is a requirement is it not. Also, there is a much cheaper way to prepare for the next "pure" thing, just dig at the grave behind draynor manor. Check out my Pocket Slot idea!

saidada1189 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 This is very disappointing. I expect more from tip.it. Even the general board has become inflammatory in nature. Let us stick on topic now. (jk, minimodding over) I wish i knew what that even was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
