"You know js people can just make new accounts refer them and still have a membership and an xp bonus for their main*****;_> I doubt Jagex didn't realize this. Trying to still be most popular web game I see...well or this is just some more "Jagex Logic!""


Once again, there will only be an XP bonus for the recruiter if the recruited account actually gains XP! The old system actually granted XP more directly as it didn't require the recruit to play for the recruiter to receive any XP bonus!

"Theoretically spoken, if a friend of mine wants to become a skiller, and just logs on the same world as me while im getting huge amounts of XP (Ex. crafting blue D'hide bodies to 90) Would he get 10% of that xp and hit level 60 with a breeze? Wouldn't that devalue the game for newer players by levelling so fast. "


The XP sharing bonus only works one-way, so you'd gain XP from anything the recruit does but the recruit would not gain 10% of your XP gains.

ahhhh lol I just reread the update and saw
"When your recruited friend earns XP, you’ll receive an XP bonus!"
I see =D very sneaky mike =P I withdraw my previous post I can live with that. However, wouldn't you say this would cause more bots? Basically, botters can get a free month of a p2p bot account.

This is sad, your losing players at an exponential rate and its blatently obvious your trying to bait people to stay members with FUTURE content, dont get me wrong POPs looks like an amazing update but unfortunatley I like cb more and the evolution of combat was more of a generic mixture of other games to steal another audience.

How bout instead of having double drop weekends, bonus xp, or double mini game rewards you at least start responding to so many that feel disenfranchised. So many threads and posts negativley portraying this update for just reasons and your whole staff is sitting on its hands looking the other direction.

We have paid for years to help further this company and the customer service we get is "It will be tough to adapt we know, but we are sure you will love it if you give it a try!" NO WE WONT, we have been trying it and the dwindling numbers are proving its failure.

I understand you have worked hard and spent alot of money on this but you all looked to far into the future and somehow forgot to ask your playerbase what they would prefer to see. The low numbers on the beta should have been a clue that it was not as popular as you thought yet you forced it out and unlike your promises on the livestream it was far from ready and that mixed with its already unpopular review is causing alot of chaos.

We want our game back, the one we played for years and spent countless sleepless nights perfecting so we can enjoy the game. We didnt ask for this, it was a surprise but it was the equivolent of giving your wife a bowling ball. Sure its nice but its not at all what we were expecting. It doesnt fit your game, the bugs and declining numbers show its not, grow a backbone and start responding to your customers.

Another thing, why in the hell would I reccommend this game with its horrible customer service? People are getting black screened, client crashes from your abilitys lore they cant even do with the new system and did I mention horrible customer service?

The game is broken, even vidoe makers you flawnt posting hints on the eoc are changing their opinions real fast. Does none of this even bother you?

this doesn't make much sense at all when you think about it..

you make an account (B) with the referral program, then you make it member.
Which leads to a month membership on your main account (A).

people will let (B) bot all night and gain loads of xp for the slower skills / more expensive skills on (A) when they are able to play.
& when (B) gets banned then they still have what they would have had before.. a month of runescape with no extra costs.

It's basicly a win-win situation for botters. :|

ps: saying it doesn't make sense to keep making accounts, isn't right.. It does make sense. (maybe not for you) but people don't care about making more accounts if they can benefit from it.. it doesn't take long at all anyways
