"My guesswork is better than yours" is no more dignified than "my mom can beat up your dad". It's the future. It is inherently unpredictable; educated guesses are still guesses.
Speculation is in order, but don't kid yourself that your opinions have the weight of fact.

See this is the whole quote. Obviously the world could end tomorrow and all of us could be proven wrong, but that is unlikely. And basing arguments on any event among the thousands of possibilities just doesn't make sense.

Instead it makes sense to focus on what is probable, which the past several pages appeared to have focused on other things. And in the financial world probable guesses DO hold more weight than possible guesses. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

In celebration, we should make the worlds longest Chinese Dragon parade.


Did everyone get their Chinese Dragon costume earlier this year?

Why so negative?
We are unlikely to see any noticeable change for at least a year, which D4 says is long term.

And it has great potential to bring in new markets for Jagex products.


I just don't get warm fuzzies in my tummy over the 'business as usual' statement, because I don't personally care for what is currently present in rs.


In other words, if 'business as usual' is the best idea jagex can pitch to try to win over our hearts on this deal, then I just I'm just not so thrilled. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

Oi, no logic allowed here.

I am starting to get the feeling that this thread is just one of many caught in the middle of a larger feud between groups.

Anyway night. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

It really depends on whether they are referring to the time leading up to the deals close. Or afterwards. Did Mod Pips have the full details to the deal?

I don't think there are feuds as such. More like personal bias because some players cant separate argument proposed from the people proposing them.

And in the financial world probable guesses DO hold more weight than possible guesses.

And given how most relevant recessions (Which it looks like China is moving towards for the past few years now) have lasted longer than 1 year, one can presume that this entire scenario is long-term. This means this investment business is more than likely thinking long term. To think someone would just drop money (especially money of this calibre) on something and NOT do anything with it (or even more laughable, think it will only lead to positives) in the dawn of one of the largest financial crises this world will likely see for longer than 1 year is folly and downright illogical (Especially when put into context how venture capitalism works).

It's not illogical at all. So long as they're earning their expected annual profit, they have no need to interfere at all. It's no different than investing in mutual funds. So long as they're preforming as expected, there is no reason to interfere.

Mate, it is illogical.

You are quite literally saying that you'd invest 300M on a vending machine and not do ANYTHING with it (And no- showing it off isn't ''doing anything with it'').

If you're dropping that kinda money on something given the circumstances, you're expecting something HUGE out of it, You are more than likely GOING to be involved with it.

It's at the point where I would be genuinely surprised if this investment was laissez-faire in terms of business procedure.
