Micro transactions are ruining the game. Eoc is good, the real killer of rs is Solomons.

Micro transactions are annoying and rs is better without them


so what you are saying is. You like it when jagex makes less money. there for the game will eventually be closed for lack of funds.. boy you are a smart one. Cosmetics do not hurt anyone.

Solomon brought heaps of GP into Jagex' money pouch, if anything, the store upgrades the game with amazing graphics, quests and other content. Rs3? Scratch that. Html5? Would never happen. World Event? Hah, don't even try. There's a chance we wouldn't even have Player-owend ports. The store pays for all these cool things, so does the wheel of free exp.

can't say i support this.

I really don't see the problem here, Jagex offers an item mall and gachapon (SGS and SoF) like every other game, Runescape's the only game with a community that REALLY cries over it though, it's things like these that earn jagex that little bit of extra cash, which is their sole purpose as a company, that has never and will never change.

At the end of the day Jagex has all of this, if you don't like it simply don't use it/spend your money on it. its REALLY as simple as that, since it isn't going anywhere so it's REALLY useless to complain about.

its amazing how people still see SoF and SGS as RWT'ing, when their wrong, they're trying their very best to justify jagex's actions as RWT'ing because they dont like it, when it seems they REALLY don't understand RWT'ing, the gold selling bots you see? thats RWT'ing, the people selling accounts.. again that's RWT'ing, jagex selling mainly cosmetic and have a wheel at a chance of stuff? that ISN'T RWT'ing, since all of this stuff belongs to jagex they can have an item mall (SGS) and a gachapon (essentially SoF) like more or less every other game has, and why? because it's their property at the end of the day, RWT'ing is when a player/individual attempts to make some form of real life profit from the game.

If Jagex would cease to exist without these extra funds, then maybe they shouldn't try to over-exert themselves by releasing all these expensive updates so quickly.

I don't like it when people say, "If you don't like it, then don't use it". It's the principle that matters, not the ends or means.

you canceled your membership because of sgs? lmao!

this is an example of why jagex can't please everyone! cause there is always someone that will complain over little things.

I like SGS, if you don't like it then don't use it. It's not giving you cancer,

so glad you canceled your membership cause I honestly don't like players like you.

1. If you have had principle, you would have done so as well. With the dawn of MapleScape, you will quit one way or the other.

2. This was and still is a huge update, not a petty graphics tweak you ignorant cow.

3. It is giving Runescape cancer, not the player. At least you had one thing right.

4. Stop posting on fourms. Clearly you can't handle a well informed opinion.

Yes it's true IVP bought out MapleStory and killed it, but Jagex have confirmed several times that all money used for SGS will go straight back into SGS development. I've been on and off RS for about 10 years now, and I've watched it change insanely.

I kicked up a massive fuss with the best of them over the removal of the Wilderness and free trade, then I made an even bigger fuss when they were brought back because of the bot pandemic. As far as I can see, Solomon's is nowhere near as ridiculous in terms of RWT'ing as this thread claims it is in comparison to SoF, THAT'S the one you should be complaining about... Cosmetics are harmless

Agreed, SGS (with the exception of bank boosters and legendary pets - the former of which can be bought with Loyalty Points) is entirely cosmetic and completely harmless. Trying to argue that Solomon's gives an in-game advantage because people care about how they look is illogical to a hilarious degree.

SOF on the other hand is the work of the devil and should be obliterated.
Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.
