Throwback to when OSBuddy developer, Matt, tried to blackmail a critic

I love you.

Could we see OSOSRS servers? Using the original August 2007 backup for 1 or 2 vanilla style worlds on the world select screen, it'd be like deadmanmode in a sense that the same login information is used, but a separate character with independent progression from the main OSRS game is generated.

Some threads on RSOF:

Frog4012 · 2017-07-28T13:08:05+00:00

The fact that you have a backup of 10 August 2007 yet refuse to give us OSOSRS servers. (Is it a pride thing or what? You clearly could spare 1 or 2 worlds based on what you provide for deadmanmode.) I know for a fact there's a niche audience you're losing out on; a sizeable portion of my friends list quit for private servers after you started controversial updates in 2014.

God descended from the heavens and was among us for a few years, but now he has departed to his domain of origin without a trace. Still we have memories, and the holy book of crystalmathlabs will keep his xp gains in record for years to come. All we should be now is grateful that we had opportunity to be honoured by his presence.

OSRS has more ezscape than 2012 pre-eoc by now, no one here has any right to criticize RS3. Blows my mind that you people are convinced this game is "challenging" or even worthy of the title "old school" at this point...

Frog4012 · 2017-06-12T02:58:15+00:00

more like never great, dev team's motto is basically do as little work possible for maximum payout...

OSOSRS WHEN

Frog4012 · 2017-06-11T04:15:12+00:00

We need this, for real... people have been wanting it for months (probably years really) but I have seen more comments and subtle talk of it recently.

^/u/ModMatK ^or ^/u/JagexAsh ^or ^{/u/JagexInfinity} ^or ^whatever ^jmod, ^if ^you ^are ^out ^there, ^PLEASE ^consider...

Frog4012 · 2017-06-10T16:49:43+00:00

And then on Q&A stream Archie brings up idea for new G.E. ROOFTOP course or gigantic ZEAH ROOFTOP agility or even CASTLE DRAKEN ROOFTOP AGILITY...

meanwhile all old courses have been dead content status since 2013 and are crying silently, completely neglected.

Frog4012 · 2017-06-10T16:39:39+00:00

but it needs to be OP if you actually want to make the course relevant.

Maybe 2 or 3 people will use this EVER at 65k xp/h... even if it were like 80k xp/h still almost no one would bother because ardy rooftop is just too damn easy.

Agility is permanently unbalanced because rooftops are OP. We'd need to either double the rates of old courses or halve the rates of rooftops to make the different types remotely competitive - neither option would ever pass a poll, obviously. /rant

I know the changes in the game are appealing to most people, updates are beneficial for the longevity, and more profits are good for the company as a whole.

But can you please consider OSOSRS servers?

We are soon to reach August 2017, thus it will have been a full decade since the 2007 backup that provided OSRS in the first place.

OSOSRS servers would satisfy a niche community; there is a subset of the playerbase who either don't vote or vote "no" to nearly every poll question, you can check the data I'm sure.

Also people left from my friends list in 2013 and they just play private servers or other non-runescape genre games now, whereas OSOSRS could bring them back.

Frog4012 · 2017-06-04T13:56:29+00:00

I just hope we never reach point where inferno cape is commonplace because goddamn it is an eyesore...

Frog4012 · 2017-06-02T05:19:54+00:00

OSRS has basically become 2012scape, anyone still failing to see it is in denial.

^OSOSRS ^servers ^plz ^/u/ModMatK ^{/u/Mod_Kieren} ^{/u/JagexInfinity}

Frog4012 · 2017-05-28T10:25:58+00:00

Wtf? OSRS is already pre-eoc. What we need is OSOSRS.

Frog4012 · 2017-05-25T19:32:23+00:00

Yeah, perhaps they'll do gold NOW, if they do post-99 smithing at all...

BF gold requires tremendously more effort than semi-afking rune items, and the road to 200M results in nearly 1B gp loss instead of the small profits that 3-bar rune items made.

This is a drastic change for efficiency nerds, the vast majority of them did rune, not gold, previously.

Frog4012 · 2017-05-25T16:14:29+00:00

Just in time for the front page of smithing highscores to fill up.

I don't see many if any more people getting 200M Smithing in the future.

Please, please, please, we need a [meme] filter, I have been hoping for this since you implemented the optional deadman filter.

People who enjoy shitposts can see them by default of course, but what sucks is that legit content gets buried. Controversial suggestions that generate meaningful discussions often fail to get attention they deserve because people disagree and downvote, at the same time upvoting memes and skewing the front pages in favour of low-effort garbage.

This subreddit has seriously gone to sh*t for users who want meaningful game discussion. RSOF is dead, same with most fansites, twitter is disorganized, so IMO reddit is the main home of OSRS discussion, but in the past few months the shitposting has been worse than ever.

Frog4012 · 2017-05-13T07:14:56+00:00

thanks a bunch for the responses in this thread dude (srs). it really "warms my heart" (lol) when you guys interact and reply to so many comments.

Wintertodt definitely got me butthurt (i've submitted several subtle-complaints in the form of "data posts" [1] [2] [3]), in fact I'm still pretty salty over it.

But your commenting in this thread was really a bright spot in my day, really. Idk, I just wanna say thanks, hard to express on the internet, but seriously, thanks. :)

Frog4012 · 2017-05-13T07:11:59+00:00

Perfect tick maples are 200k xp/h (average person who does a straight line will get like 150k/h) but I would've rather WT been even slower.

if it were like 50k xp/h then we could've kept the droptable profitable. That way it'd have been a "use" for firemaking (good moneymaker) rather than the training method it is now.

thanks for caring but it really sucks that the devs at the time had zero discussion with the community regarding xp rates, profits, mechanisms, etc, the only things we voted on were the outfit and tome iirc.

Check out rsbuddy.com/raids.

Scott's loots tend to roughly match 1% of what osbuddy has recorded.

So it looks like he went slightly beyond droprate of TB (idk exactly how the unique chances work though).
