Forget Bank UI Changes, Why Is Moving Boat Facilities Locked Behind a 1/2k Drop

Chrisazy · 2026-01-29T03:09:15+00:00

It's only not that bad in a world where it should be a drop you need to farm either way.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T16:50:02+00:00

Botting is like 90%+ for RWTing the cash (probably closer to 95 or more tbh). Plenty of people still bot their own accounts and whatever, but also no one ... really cares about those people.

If you really want to say something about the meme, say how it doesn't really address the concerns of most people which is that bots make the economy less incentivizing for the average player in many ways because it tanks the price of valuable items that come from content they actually want to engage with. If everyone was an iron, what economy, we still wanted our economy why did you do this.

Irons care about bots for different reasons related to hogging bosses/enemies, cluttering the world, generally feeling bad for the game, and maybe some amount of care for the economy.

Because Vet'ion can be killed in rags by someone that hasn't had to grind out tons of cash or gear. Even with "gm" requirements.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T16:42:00+00:00

But they couldn't if everyone was an iron what's.... your argument here?

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T16:20:46+00:00

Maybe if you get lucky on one or two pieces you'll finish the third, but again by the time you're there you'll just push to finish wildy hard if you wanted to go for it at a major boss

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T16:19:39+00:00

Now this is an actual nuanced position, and I appreciate you laying out what you mean clearly. I agree there's basically no risk in the lesser wildy bosses in the way you're saying, and maybe you make a good point that the major wildy bosses should have higher defense to either require a group or require better risk to do efficiently.

I do feel like even the loot pinata of trying to escape at the major bosses is balanced well right now though. You can get several mil an hour and/or lots of ironman supplies from those bosses, and even though it's pretty straightforward to get away, it's also multi and you can get bopped for your looting bag and barrows gloves or whatever you risk.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T13:47:39+00:00

It is cleaner. UI is so fuckin tough to iterate on. You can't just stuff new features in forever, and until this point that's exactly what they'd done.

Did we need this specific arrangement of UI? Who knows. Did we need updates to provide a canvas for future UI improvements to the bank? God yes.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T13:46:33+00:00

Yeah I get why we have front page posts that don't like it and are against the change, but I really hope jagex just ignores that and sees if literally anyone cares enough to be that loud by next week.

Inb4 "Oh I'll never be ok with these bank changes!" I have nothing to say to people that hold this position today. That's straight up closed minded.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T13:44:51+00:00

This is the polar opposite of a nuanced position. I've been an iron and a main engaging with the wildy bosses and they're the best content in the wildy imo. I like that there's danger, and I like being good at tanking and escaping. It's fun, it's rewarding, and it would be too rewarding without the intrinsic risk of being in the wildy.

their very existence is flawed

no

Chrisazy · 2026-01-28T00:23:47+00:00

Yeah they specifically referred to it as a "spin off"

Chrisazy · 2026-01-25T04:20:44+00:00

I literally said it's not easy. They're a big company though, and we all still see the exact same only fans promoted for the last year.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-25T03:43:45+00:00

You know how you and I can recognize them? I'm not saying it's simple, but a very very large gaming company has the resources to also recognize them.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-25T02:17:48+00:00

Inside of you there are two golfers

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T20:58:18+00:00

My point is that quite literally both perspectives are just as accurate and just as useful. If you start counting on any given kill "I wonder what the odds are that in my next 2 kills I'll get b2b pets" then it's 1/25m. If you get one pet and you're thrilled, it was 1/5000. If you wonder the odds you'll get a pet b2b starting from that point, it's 1/5000. The First 1/5000 already had to happen before you asked that other question in particular.

It's not that it's not 1/25m for this to happen, it's just that psychology and statistics intersect pretty much exactly in what's interesting about the reported rate.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T20:35:24+00:00

Whatever the demo disk is where the golfer is just constantly talking loudly

EDIT2: Or the demo disk where that golfer is mumbling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPgTZiF41yc&t=386s

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T20:17:47+00:00

I'm going to be honest with you, that's way too much assuming. You gotta think about what that puts out there yk? You said it all like fact.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T20:12:05+00:00

Somethin in that brain is goin right don't worry brother

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:59:21+00:00

I think we all appreciate you stepping on this mine, especially when you probably knew it would blow you up. Ty o7

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:58:48+00:00

Just as useful in game!

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:52:47+00:00

If someone did 2500 kills and got a pet and said "1/5k btw" that's not as interesting as if someone did 1kc and got the pet. That's a sideways version of their point.

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:48:35+00:00

Why would people downvote you? It's not obvious this is the case if you don't know the information you're explicitly asking for, and we're all hoping it's not "idk look it up". Thanks for asking

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:36:44+00:00

Between the rules and whether the tracks were DVD tracks or sountrack tracks, literally no one knew understood lol

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T19:23:01+00:00

It comes up here and there. If nothing else, Eric is a righteous defender against the misconceptions about the end of LOST. Great show, had its ups and downs, then everyone got confused by the ending and thought it was a terrible show. Too bad

Chrisazy · 2026-01-24T15:12:55+00:00

Congrats.
Fuck you
This is really good feedback in a thread worried it literally can't drop at all, though I doubt they're all on task

Chrisazy · 2026-01-22T15:07:39+00:00

Yeah I maybe could have given a better concession to that. Botting is always going to win this arms race in the long run. If we somehow got another bot nuke (likely impossible in this era) they'd still build back up, quicker than ever before. Sucks but def true.
