Nice thread! I was really active in the lore forums a while ago on the Saradominist side but I left RS during the Lum rebuildathon. I just lurk around the forums a bit nowadays. (Might come back!)
What's the status on Saradomin right now (Any new lore)? The lore forum seems so subdued right now... The one true wing ripper!!!
You naughty boy.
Original message details are unavailable.
I believe Zaros has received the perfect ratio of good and bad, every single action of his is very controversial.
Think invisible ghost, was it punishment, was he saving them from dying (a popular theory liked by mod jack)
or Chars story, was it cruel, or is Char gratefull
or Dragon rider, did he plan on fulfilling his goals, or not
I can't really think of a true evil or good thing he has done, which is different from the others.
I agree that the other gods must be fleshed out more, Seren just needs plain content, Zamorak needs good lore, Bandos i know they want him to be evil. I like Armadyl the way he is, good with controversal actions, Saradomin is perfect, but could do with some more good imo
I think what players that don't support Zaros want to see is actual cannon of Zaros himself being wrong. With Char, it can be pretty much be justified she confused orders, or let her zeal blind her judgement, with Dragon Riders, it does hint at Zaros not delivering promises, but this is not completely clear either, and the invisible ghosts, they think they were cursed by Zaros, but has this been confirmed already?

Well pact has a negative connatation (connotation is important in any languague/society), which means pact is often associated with a forced or sinister agreement.
But anyways, why argue semantics?

It's important to argue semantics in this case because he used 'pact' as if it were akin to 'forced into slavery.' It isn't, even in the stories that gained it that negative connotation you were talking about; a pact is always a willing agreement. In the stories, the demons use it to take advantage of the poor human who enters into it with them, but that doesn't make it any less willing, and there's no sign of any demons other than Ux attempting to break loose of it. A Zamorakian lorehound, probably.
