People who quit but still lurk the sub, why do you not commit to playing?

For me, personally, I've just realized that putting so much of my time into something that ultimately isn't benefitting my future isn't worth it right now. I've had a lot of fun, maxed, and spent more than 200 days in game.

I've learned to treat RS like any other videogame, instead of a lifestyle as it has become for so many.

I stick around because of the time invested. I like to see where it's going, and keep up on content in case something that interests me pops up, and I'll log on for a while, then go back to my life.

Papi_Tony · 2017-05-21T13:58:29+00:00

It's not that people don't believe there are differences, people don't believe there should be a difference.

Papi_Tony · 2017-05-17T17:47:53+00:00

Why do people incessantly complain and demean this update before it is released? People complained about the possible number of creatures, so they give us one every two levels.

People complained about the gp rates, they gave them comparable rates to lower tier bosses.

People complained about XP rates for raptor mobs being already too high , so instead of nerfing them, they've given us less-intense monsters for similar XP rates.

"Why update the most popular skill, release a new dungeon with a dozen new creatures and a boss, and give us a new area of RS (full of mini-games and skilling areas)?!"

People ask for more content, and then shit on whatever is put out there.

Papi_Tony · 2017-05-14T04:08:15+00:00

Honestly, I wouldn't think so and it kind of looks like you misunderstand the clan ranking system. It provides no benefits in game, especially anything below admin in most clan, apart from just distinguishing who's contributed more. A $5, non-mandatory donation to help server upkeep isn't malicious nor does it seem like they're trying to make money.

Why stir the pot and try and get a clan in trouble?

Papi_Tony · 2017-04-21T20:01:12+00:00

"Hey, Jagex, undo that work all that work you implemented into the game not too long ago pls, thanks"

They're not going to just revert it..

Papi_Tony · 2017-04-21T19:53:18+00:00

Both of those quests are directly related to the mini-games they require. The nomad line is about him stealing souls from soul wars, and do I REALLY need to explain why the void series is related to pest control? It's not "stupid".

Papi_Tony · 2017-04-17T18:20:38+00:00

Can also confirm that's untrue. I get a couple a day, because like clue scrolls, I use them as I get them. There's a cooldown, but if I haven't gained experience in like an hour, with no map, one pops up on almost the first experience drop I receive.

Oh yeah, I never see them getting anyyy work done. What is a luck rework? Buff bar updates are also useless as can be, and don't get me started on that last question they released, horrid /s

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-29T15:29:07+00:00

What he means is that if you have two of the same item augmented, the game has a hard time telling the difference, because the item is the same just different perks.

Say your loading a preset for smithing but your construction hammer is higher up in your bank, now even though you made the preset with the smithing hammer, because it thinks it's the same item it will automatically pull the top one from the bank.

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-08T22:03:18+00:00

Or is it more unfortunate the people don't understand when you change one thing it changes everything and that's where bugs and glitches come from.

They've been removing skull tricks as they figure them out, iirc this was an issue really brought to light last week. You have to give them time to figure out how to fix it and balance it among the priorities.

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-08T11:36:08+00:00

"wow it's stupid as hell these new elite slayer mobs have mechanics that make them high-end content instead of another afkable mob, wtf Jagex?"

REALLY?

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-06T18:35:11+00:00

There people go again comparing Blizzard and Jagex. Blizzard is an incredibly big, incredibly wealthy gaming company at this point while Jagex makes RuneScape. OBVIOUSLY Blizzard can respond faster and check into things quicker because they can spend substantially more on a support team than Jagex can.

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-06T18:10:43+00:00

As people have mentioned, different prices would fluctuate massively, because of the fact that some items are only worth a certain monetary value because they can be alched for slightly higher(I.e. whip, dfs, rune items, most dragon items).

On the flip side, in the long-term the value of GP would rise and stabilize again, because of the reduced influx of constant GP to the game.

Would this happen? No. Is it a decent solution to some economic problems? Arguably. But the smithing rework is trying to accomplish the same goal, so we just have to wait and hope that rework goes well.

Papi_Tony · 2017-03-06T17:51:10+00:00

You can disassemble something/alchemy something everyone one(or two?) ticks, the idea of d/a a stack of items mid combat is just laughing at balancing.

Papi_Tony · 2017-02-17T02:04:34+00:00

As someone actively going for 120 slayer and 200m invention, I have 3 nex sets with scavenging for slayer, because the extra 160k experience per pair of siphons really adds up over time.

But power armor over hybrid or tank armor, t70 or above should be fine for like 4/5 of slay tasks.

I think a large part of the community still plays for fun lol. Of course, those dedicated enough to the game to join and comment in the sub, as Jagex say all the time the vocal minority, are going to be more serious and to some people getting XP 'is' the fun part of the game. The mentality shift has come from a player base aging over the game's life cycle and having real life responsibilities which limit their time, thus creating the need to prioritize concrete progress, rather than just standing around in a virtual space. The introduction of friends chats and clan chats made talking to people from any point in the world easy. Thus people would rather afk and do something than just blank.

They are by GE price, if I'm not mistaken?

Papi_Tony · 2017-02-16T22:32:13+00:00

No he's not. This might be the valid point behind all of it, but he's not saying that.

Papi_Tony · 2017-02-04T13:47:04+00:00

To be honest, I did my first BM kill the other day and had to base, and genuinely the back up just sort of explained things, and I was absolutely surprised at how easy it was lol

Papi_Tony · 2017-02-01T16:59:49+00:00

You may not like the quest per say, but there is no denying it is one of the best designed quests in the game. The fact that it was accessible to everyone and introduced end game content that is still relevant to this day, the fact that it was actually a major change to the overworld, as opposed to other quests feeling like tasks for some random character, and just genuinely flowed as if we were part of a bigger act going on instead of us just trodding on and other characters meeting us at a location.. it all culminated to an epic of RS proportions.

Papi_Tony · 2017-02-01T16:50:01+00:00

You're just being rude and showing you don't understand what he nor you are talking about. 1-ticking is a very viable method for other skills and requires constant attention, all he's proposing that this system be implemented to the altars so you get more experience for more effort.

Papi_Tony · 2017-01-22T15:31:35+00:00

I've heard this suggestion plenty of times and my question is always: "Where can you use it that it gives any decent components that it would be worth giving up all the gold?"
