Are you guys seriously having a discussion about fixing Splashing, Zuldrah, Wyverns, and bots when we can't even access the game? You have to be joking or trolling......

How about we actually log in and then we can discuss other minor issues.....

This is ridiculous, Jagex. This has been going on for so long now, why hasn't this issue been resolved yet?

I think we should have some compensation for the downtime. Perhaps a couple of days membership, or something, for all the members that are not getting what they paid for? This is so frustrating...

I think a lot of you are failing to remember that some of us had already spent time getting 99s on rs2 before it became rs3, then we came back to play OldSchool and had to start all over again from square one. From this perspective, Afking guthans provides a --while still quite lengthy -- good way to train back to the max mains we used to be on rs2. I do not think it is overpowered. If anything, make the prices of herb boxes cost more points, since players seem to think it makes you tons of money (which it really doesn't, rather it's more of a breakeven). ALSO: AFKING WITH GUTHANS WAS ALWAYS AND STILL IS POSSIBLE AT BANDITS IN THE DESERT. So stop acting like its something brand new, newbies.

IF YOU CAN'T BEAT EM, JOIN EM AND STOP COMPLAINING.

As far as splashing goes, I personally train magic this way and have the same perspective as NMZ. I had 99 magic in RS2 and would rather not have to be in front of the computer 24/7 to train it back up to the level I used to have. Splashing to 99 magic takes months with fire strike, it's not overpowered. If you use fire wave it will still take a long time and cost a ton of money.

On the topic of Zulrah and Wyvern*, I think the only people who are complaining about it are people who fail to kill it or don't get lucky with drops. However, I would like to see some additions to drop tables for other bosses as most of them, such as Kalphite Queen, only drop crap (Kalphite Queen drops Dragon Chain and D2h as its rare drops and those are hardly worth anything these days.. only in rs2 was the D chain worth any decent money).

Personally, I think Jagex is trying too hard to add updates to the game when more updates are not necessary. As soon as new updates happen all people do is complain anyways even when they voted for them.

ALSO: Some people actually "AFK" but sit and watch it, that's not AFK in the way everyone deems it. That's essentially playing.

Splashing and AFK NMZ are fine. I've already leaving to (almost) max combat stats once.. I don't really want to do it again the hard way... I am quite a bit older and have less time than I did in 2007, due to work and other personal things.

To be honest this is getting ridiculous, it may be worth it to prevent real-world trading by banning bots in the long run, but when they take down all the servers, maybe Jagex should lean back until they "make the network more resilient" before banning again.
