your account has just started membership in oct 2018 and you are level 1 in all skills 10 hp

so I don't think so but if you do feel free to take a picture with it at photo booth

I also have 15 year cape congratulations telcis we need to filter out the comments here by those who really have no contribution to the subject. it is like me commenting on brexit when I don't even live in the U.K. or Europe. no contest and really nothing valuable to say.

They are two known trolls (though I do give Telcis a tiny bit of credit for starting his tirade in a respectable and approachable manner.

Until he started spamming and trolling everyone else on the thread.

It's best to ignore them. The two go hand in hand.

Anyone who disagrees with Rob or has a different opinion is a troll, apparently.


@Immortalized, some people have played classic but don't have a 15 year cape. They still deserve to have a voice in this. And really, all other players are connected to RSC through Jagex. So I don't agree that it should be filtered in this case.

All feedback is welcome, until you attack and filibuster a thread for 39 pages.

What you and Draco have done on this thread should be against the rules. Technically it's not, but that doesn't make your trolling okay.

Anyways, back to ignoring your posts.

I have offered the company a deal: allow me to personally pay the cost to maintain ONE SINGLE SERVER. I have offered to contractually pay any additional costs it would take to keep our history and progress alive, while allowing the company to keep all membership profits from a single server's players.
Jagex has denied me this request


"I'm afraid we're not offering it."

When asked about a source code release:

"If the company gives it away, it can never consider [profiting from it] it in the future, even though it doesn't currently have plans to do so."


I'm not sure if you went over this in your thread or not ( i'm sorry but so many pages full of spam is hard to sift through) But if I was in charge of Jagex, I would not give you the servers or codes to Rs classic either. Mainly because I would be like " who the hell are you to want to buy the rights to this section of the game". Regardless of what your intentions are and what you think you can do with it.

I don't even thing the Gowers would give you the rights to have the RS class servers if they were still in charge. It has so many bad implications and precedents to allow a third party control of a server. A Lion is just a big cat... with bigger teeth

I offered to pay the costs associated with them keeping a server running, not to buy the game from them.

Though Classic is an old game, the cost to actually purchase the game from Jagex would likely be in the millions (which I obviously don't have).

As far as a source code release; that was actually the original plan.

In 2009, a project had been started to make Classic open sourced, downloadable, and allow players to build onto the game and do their own thing with it.

This, in my opinion, is a great compromise.

Unfortunately, as stated in the thread, the idea was scrapped because it wouldn't make them money.

Thanks for the feedback!

Yet no one is.

We're all discussing the topic as much as you are so.

Plus you're also attacking ppl as well calling them trolls and whatnot, so dont think you dont have any role in this.

Exactly.

Just because you didnt play on day 1 doesnt mean you cant discuss something.
