I created this account couple of seconds ago just so that I could tell you that you have no life. Jagex is making runescape playable. Who in his right mind would spend 200 hundred hours(?) leveling runecrafting? Do you value your time at all? I would rather spend 200 hours running ... for 200 days ... one hour each one of the day. Why would I want to spend that much time training ONE skill in some random mmorpg when I just want to have some fun? And telling me anything like "you don't have to get max cape in runescape" is totally irrelevant. I guess that most of you play runescape because of some fake goals. Why would I want to play a game about which I know that I will never be able to fully complete it. That is just stupid. anyone knows that you only get respected by players if you play the most efficient way and don't enjoy it. runescape isn't a game, it's a lifestyle. and getting xp isn't fun it's work, the more you work, the more girls you get.damn isn't it obvious why gemeos acting like a top player. he's tryin' to get some chics nah i'm joking but really, why is it so hard to see runescape as a game and not as work.... That was just extremely well written. Not a post of support for botting but theres a reason why half the playerbase did just that. Also we both know there is a lot more to the dropping playerbase then reduced input required to train skills. Actually I choosed this name because I wanted to make some no-lifers angry and honestly I did not expect these open minded replies. Runescape is more like a work than like a game and it takes tremendous amount of time to play it. Modifying XP rates (and or changing the game mechanics) would not be "making the game easier" but "making the game more humane". By the way ... long-term botting is impossible for couple of months now. I think that will make you a bit happier. :)
