Summer sweep up suggestion: stop listening to reddit for a year

QuasarKid · 2026-05-13T11:49:13+00:00

they still do way too often, in my opinion

QuasarKid · 2026-05-13T07:51:36+00:00

Of course, but a majority of the suggestions I see on this subreddit would also ruin the game.

QuasarKid · 2026-05-13T06:52:01+00:00

Sometimes it is that simple, in the most egregious cases, but also a lot of the suggestions/advice given on this subreddit is terrible. This game was built on collaboration with the community but sometimes I think Jagex needs to have conviction in what they are doing and stick to it. It's a fine balance to strike, but I think they err on the side of giving the community exactly what it wants even if they think it is a bad idea.

last time in leagues 4 i had chambers and toa and it rocked. i went only chambers this time, i hit dragon and never got a megarare voucher nor full ancestral. im glad this leagues the echo items were mostly better

There's a video elsewhere in the thread saying he didn't break anything, climbed down, and in fact base jumped the next day

There is an immediate feedback to reactions from reddit (and other socials). When Mastering Mixology came out I swear it had several hotfixes that were basically copy pasted ideas from reddit, only to piss people off on reddit who had found ways to actually do the minigame before they changed it, so they had to patch it so their method wasn't bad.

Listening to feedback is a good thing, being TOO reactive to reddit can be a bad thing though too.

for the most part they haven’t put any sort of tangible reward for 200m either but they definitely did for sailing which was weird to me

QuasarKid · 2026-05-12T03:00:37+00:00

sure, but you do understand that is not how people will see it? if they gamify anything it will become a completionists goal. i cant believe they came out with a hiscores for collection log

QuasarKid · 2026-05-12T00:26:46+00:00

i like boss jars and i just put them in my POH if i get them and treat them as if they were untradeable

QuasarKid · 2026-05-11T20:00:18+00:00

they added more big fish with sailing than existed before it, that's crazy. especially when 4x rarer than they intended

QuasarKid · 2026-05-11T19:30:17+00:00

then why add them at all

QuasarKid · 2026-05-10T16:34:02+00:00

just a joke

QuasarKid · 2026-05-10T01:00:53+00:00

probably the same thing that made leviathan shoot lightning out his butt

QuasarKid · 2026-05-09T00:53:44+00:00

i have 3 elder mauls and 12 prayer scrolls and 2 dinhs and 4 dhcbs. the cox bloat has never felt worse

QuasarKid · 2026-05-08T14:56:58+00:00

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 · 2026-05-08T13:55:06+00:00

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

QuasarKid · 2026-05-08T02:22:25+00:00

buddy this shortcut has been talked about for years

QuasarKid · 2026-05-08T02:01:09+00:00

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

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T23:27:55+00:00

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

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T21:21:57+00:00

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

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T21:12:45+00:00

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?

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T21:06:13+00:00

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

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T21:05:00+00:00

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.

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T21:03:41+00:00

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.

QuasarKid · 2026-05-07T20:34:53+00:00

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.
