I don't know about any of that, it's not anything I think about. But to say the game is dying is ludicrous. You can see the number of players logged in, the numbers are solid. (not at this moment though)

The warning is still there and I am not feeling any better about this. now I have this additional information that people just randomly report for RWT.

How is that even possible?

Again, I can only assume this was an automated system but they should want that to be accurate. I can't believe someone looked at my game data and thought I had cheated.

The message should have been more like congratulations on the sweet drops, now you can afford some lvl 45 abilities. Which I did just get, tyvm fictional congratulatory message.

i don't have to prove anything, you know what your hat is worth now and you know how much it was worth in 2007 when the game was at it peak popularity playerwise.

Smart money had already left at that point. Its just bagholders here at this point.


well if youve made a claim and someone asks for proof its usually a good idea to provide where your thought process came from to get that claim

otherwise we can just ignore it as bs.

yes my hat(s) are worth a lot. well done for noticing.

if you cant provide evidence for the claim then there is no need to believe the claim. because providing that evidence shouldnt be difficult if you have it, and that after all is all im after.

I dont know, but there are times it seems like this game is under attack. If people get frustrated enough many will move on.

There's a guy with an Ironman account that was banned. He doesnt know why. He appealed and simply told he broke the rules. Doesnt even seem that appealing is worth the effort. I dont know how the most brilliant of us can correct behavior if we cant even be told what that behavior is supposed to have been.

If the people whose jobs depend on this game dont care, I guess everyone else has no choice but to let it go.

From the things people say regarding the game, I sometimes wonder how many of them actually log in and play.

Lets take W84 as an example. I have never had such an easy time logging into W84. All week - hardly had to wait at all. I just read DXP starts Friday, so I expect that to change, but it will be eye-opening if it doesnt.

As for "The Numbers" - they can be inaccurate. They can be manipulated. Anyone that has ever done a Case Study can easily verify that.

Logging in once in a while and bankstanding is not playing the game. "The Numbers" can be deceiving.

I jump in and out of the game throughout the day and I think there are a fair number who do that. Smaller sessions. Like I hit the 6 hour warning exactly one time. For some reason I can't remember how, maybe it was DG.

The point is, a lot more people are entering the game than it appears because they don't just sit there. When we have 30k at the same time on RS3 that is strong. 160k total is strong.

W84 will be full during double xp, so if you want to go there make sure you exit to the lobby first. If you world hop and it's full the game can get crazy and you will have to deal with a login error for a couple minutes.

Roddy, Im sorry you dont seem to be picking up that I play the game. I log in and out and dont just sit there. I am human and need bio, food and drink breaks just like anyone else.

Out of 320,000,000 accounts 30K is solid? 160K is strong?

Well, accept your warning, I guess. Nothing wrong here. Ill move along. :)

I'm not sure what I said wrong, Jagex has talked about that over the years, how the total number of users to enter the game during the day is bigger than it might seem.

IMO those numbers are strong. I have seen much worse. There are people who know all about that, but I am only loosely interested. I see the number online and it looks good to me.

You didnt say anything wrong, Roddy. Seriously. You are entitled to your opinion like any other.

The reason I said accept your warning then is simple -
Jagex told you that you broke a rule.
Knowing that you didnt shouldnt matter.

I'm not just taking their word, I have seen data, read articles over the years. I have gone in the lobby and manually counted the players. I have checked worlds to see if the numbers are likely, and I feel they are.

I do not doubt them. The telling point is the number of active subscribers. TBH I am otherwise distracted but there are players who know all about this, the number keep floating up in the forum.
