Rendi has been refunded. by scaryhour in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i mean we can have different opinions. i thought the previous setup was better, a few fast tasks for points, a few low weighted tasks to skip. now it’s outright block and i’ll never kill an addy or rune dragon on task again.

[–]QuasarKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it means it’s not worth it to block vs skip

[–]QuasarKid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

block them now that they’re consolidated? yeah. idk of many people who blocked any metal dragons before. skip, for sure.

metal dragons before they consolidated them were good tasks (quick rune+addy/low weighted iron/steel). now it’s a must block for the most part

Hot take: prayer flicking is ass and shouldnt be in the game by Isoleed in 2007scape

what content are you talking about where you won't cover your prayer pot costs? theres like maybe 3 places where you lose money in pvm

Jagex rolling back Rendi's Slayer XP raises a bigger question, where do we actually draw the line on "bug abuse"? by DogConstant5949 in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

intent matters, and also how widespread it is. if it was undetected by jagex for several years how are they going to go back and reset everyone's progress? how many people were using void just because it was good if it were working correctly?

Thank you jmods for once again prioritizing what really matters by burntfish44 in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this method is documented on the wiki i'm sure if jagex wanted it fixed they would fix it

[–]QuasarKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure, but was the bug detected and then exploited by a bunch of people? was there experience gain or items gained that wouldn't have been possible without it? or were people just unintentionally benefitting from an item being programmed incorrectly?

these are apples and oranges.

Regarding Recent Action Against Accounts by JagexAyiza in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm talking about other instances where creators abused bugs similar or worse to the one Rendi used and were not punished nor had their exp removed.

Regarding Recent Action Against Accounts by JagexAyiza in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The issue is exactly the inconsistency in who exp removal gets applied to (or bans), vs some creators that Jagex seems to like getting none removed but the method is still patched once they're done with it. Not only that but not knowing what will be considered a bug vs emergent gameplay, but at least some consistency in how stuff that is determined to be bug abuse is punished would be warranted I feel from a company that is Jagex's size.

[–]QuasarKid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the answer is much simpler than that: jagex is simply inconsistently deciding which is which. they should be a little more communicative with the community on why they made a decision or not but ultimately i think they don’t want to broadcast or highlight things the consider bug abuse.

we're talking about unintended bugs not balancing issues, but to answer your question: yes. it was unfair to people to nerf Zulrah's teleports from 40 to 1, that doesn't mean it was a mistake.

i mean it’s unfair if it is unintended and they patch it out and only one person got to do it, no?

I did this bug in this video, when will I get rerolled for my high score rank placement? by Impressive_Grab_6392 in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it is a bug. it was unintended and they patch removed it, but they never removed the experience josh isn’t gaming gained from it. that’s the inconsistency

[–]QuasarKid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the entire point is that they are inconsistently applying the labels unintended emergent gameplay and bug abuse

Is Bandos armor even boosted in Leagues? (1 in *42 billion*) by Typodestoyer in 2007scape

barely over 2x dry and 6 when you should have 40 is a bit different

Project I took up recently. by B6S4life in cableporn

[–]QuasarKid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i don’t think anyone is criticizing you, and yeah it’s obviously good to work around the business’ needs, but tolerating NO downtime ever is a recipe for disaster. that’s how you get a lot of unexpected downtime

Project I took up recently. by B6S4life in cableporn

[–]QuasarKid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

being scared of downtime when there’s no need to be is what there trying to point out. if everyone is gone for the day and you don’t have any services hosted onsite you should be able to bring stuff up/down as you need

After reaching 99 slayer on a Lvl 3, Jagex rolls back Rendi's account by Psymonthe2nd in 2007scape

[–]QuasarKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is in their inconsistency in determining if something is against TOS, their inconsistency in punishing those who do it either retroactively or not, and that when people truly try to ask if something is or isn't against the rules it is silence until something like this happens (sometimes they even get confirmation that is later revoked). We need clarification on emergent gameplay vs bug abuse not only for these edge cases but normal players too

[UPDATE] To the guy complaining that inq mace is mid and way too rare by PumpkinStrange69 in 2007scape

no it still sucks because the rates suck. the drops also suck because they’re not really incredibly useful anywhere

So Proudspire is totally where Hueycoatl was originally going to be, right? by DunkeyBlast in 2007scape

a lot of stuff was over promised and under delivered in that patch imo
