i dont care about hi scores, i care about the concept. you want a medium core not a hard core. you choose hard and whine. i tried and found its not for me. deal or downgrade.
I am entitled to have and share my own opinion about a game mode I play.
Where I struggle is your constant criticism of my "making the game mode medium core" is that it comes with no factual basis. You have not provided any such argument as to how keeping your items would make the game mode "so easy" that it wouldn't be hard anymore. Case and point, you can't provide evidence that the change would impact placement of the top players. Players still have limited lives and it would still be ironman mode. The players would still have to gain the items they receive like any other player. I still had to kill Zuk on limited lives and get a Scripture of Ful drop in the first place to get it - and you're saying that's not hard? Or constructing two spider legs on limited lives isn't hard?
Have you even done these things on one of your accounts? If not, I don't think you're really qualified to talk about game difficulty. It's not like the player dies and has a nox staff magically appear in their inventory.
youve really lost it if you think i care about other players and score tables. hell cant remember the last time i even looked at it. hardcore is the hardest mode we have, its meant to have no safeguards. oh well, bye bye items. dont go into risky situations with gear you arent willing to grind back for.

Regarding the high scores, it doesn't matter that you don't care about them (tbh I don't care about the opinion of a guy who complains that the game has to be changed when all they have to do is skill thieving for less than hour to get a cowhide). The high scores are an objective measure of the feats of the people who have played the mode and can used to gauge the difficulty of the mode.
You've shared YOUR OPINION on the matter and I've shared MINE. Clearly, they won't meet in the middle. I just hope Jagex puts more stake into opinions of folks that actively play modes that are up for discussion than folks that project their opinions on content they are not engaging with.
