Who Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Hi, Just to clear up a few things, although I expect to most people this a common sense. We don't "Hate" pures at Jagex. Players are welcome to play the game however they like as long as they do so within the rules. If players want to try focusing on one particular ability or just do quests or whatever, they are completely welcome to do so. Really! I don't mind! However our aim in creating RuneScape as always been to produce a game where players are rewarded for leveling up all their skills and trying out everything. That's always been the approach throughout. For instance you can only get certain items by doing certain quests. In fact furthermore the aim has been to try and make the different areas of the game tie into each other, so doing one piece of content unlocks another, and doing that one unlocks another, and so forth. If players don't want to play certain bits of content or level certain skills they are still free to do so, but just remember our aim is to make sure everything in the game is worth doing and has fun rewards. Players deliberately not doing a bit of content won't get the rewards associated with that bit of content. (stands to reason!). Also since we try to make completed content unlock further content as a reward, deliberately not doing a certain bit of content will prevent you from doing other bits. For example if you deliberately chose not to the "priest in peril" quest it would mean there were loads of other quests you also couldn't do, but it would be absurd to complain that meant we "hate" people who haven't done "priest in peril"!! Players complaining they haven't got rewards because they haven't achieved the thing the reward is intended to be for is of course silly, and will be ignored. Being able to wear better armour is one of the main rewards for leveling defence! We're no more likely to deliberately allow that than we would for example deliberately allow a player with only level 1 cooking to cook a shark.

hellbellz Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 That's exactly what Jagex has beeing saying.. Forever :P It ticks me off when people think Jagex hates them for being pure. If you don't train your defence (or whatever other lvls), it's your fault for not being able to wield Black D Hide Body :roll: Just my $0.02 O:) EDIT: Hey, Who Le Ow, we joined Tip.It the same day \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardovilian Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 And Jagex might hate pures because?... Why is 'common sense' so named, when there is so little of it about?Welcome to puberty, we've been expecting you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 And Jagex might hate pures because?... Well, I suppose pures could be seen as an abuse of imperfections in the combat equation. Mano, this was posted at least a few months ago though :o. The thread may be new on RSB, but they've made plenty if that's true.

t3h Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 i'm guessing some pures complained about not having as many benefits as other players . . . quite silly really My capes in the order they were achieved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardovilian Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 And Jagex might hate pures because?... Well, I suppose pures could be seen as an abuse of imperfections in the combat equation. You're not seriously suggesting that Jagex would be bothered by that are you? Why is 'common sense' so named, when there is so little of it about?Welcome to puberty, we've been expecting you.

yomom1919 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 And Jagex might hate pures because?... my assumption is that players came up with the pure theory before jagex did. jagex may have wanted to change or add something to pures, but by then it was too late, so they may get mad therefore, they lost control of an aspect of the game (preety much the same reason people believe jagex hates rares) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkmage099 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Personally, I think Jagex should like pures. They are secondary accounts to the main account. These accounts usually become members. Better business. I think this response is a very good response though. Trix.--quit WoW as of 12/07Thank you 4be2jue for the wonderful sig and avatar!

DegenerateX Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Would be nice if Jagex just kept releasing better armours with higher defence reqs over and over again. Then pures wouldn't pwn so bad anymore. Problem is how much would these armours cost and how would they become availabe. Would never happen because they would screw with the Runescape economy, and the entire point of having it downsize pures wouldn't work because it would cost to much too pk in. If it wasn't expensive then every other armour below it would have to drop in price to make up for their loss of "value." So in conclusion my idea comrpirsed of 95% stupidity would ruin runescape. Just shows that I should never work for Jagex.

Adam007 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 The real pure problem was fixed with the release of rs2. They're not even exactly unfair anymore imo. I think people just like to play the "jagex hates me because I'm "X" card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romalee Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 And Jagex might hate pures because?... Well, there could be this... Pures are an abomination to me, for they shun the thing that they should seek to find: Balance in all things. Thou make thy pleas to the wrong god, for all true followers of Guthix hate these so called 'pures' for their ignorance of the power that can be found in balance. Thou deservest to walk until thy very feet are raw with effort, for ignoring my teachings and trying to become something that thou shouldst not. When my plans are unfurled, 'pures' will be the very first to suffer of all the creatures of this world. And, seeings how there is no "real" (who are we, as mortals, to decide what is real and not?) Guthix, then SOMEONE form Jagex wrote that. *Ninja vanish* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the character who said that. Guthix is HUGE on balance. Pures are unbalanced. Therefore, Guthix does not like pures. I am sure Guthix was around way before pures became big.

OK, take it this way; I know, and hopefully most know, that someone from Jagex typed that while in the Guthix character, having fun, entertaining the masses and what not. Now, say someone with the IQ of a rhesus monkey *CoughmanyRSplayersCough* was to read that. They'd think, "Hey, someone from Jagex wrote that! that means Jagex hates pures!111onehundredeleven" The point I'm trying to get across is that Jagex staff wrote that quote, various people of lower intelligence read it, and therefore think that said Jagex staff hates pures. Maybe it was a misunderstanding of my post, or I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to say, either way, this post stands. And for the record, I love that last sentence of that letter, as many on the interwebs have said, "Ex dee." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
