As a Veteran player i am not the type to login onto the forums and give my opinion but
it seems i have too since they stated there not gonna put in lootshare without even polling it

So lootshare not being polled and the oldschool team choosing too drop shard share on us next week
came down to random pvm whales that made negative reddit posts and people who use the forums...?

Reasons i dont agree with shard system
- Not polling lootshare, this was one of the biggest updates pre eoc gameplay wise for people to do stuff in teams together and
enabling teams and clans to battle against eachother for loot
so the oldschool team not letting the actual ingame players vote for lootshare (how it was pre-doomsday) realy surprised mee

- All the pvmers who never even been part of bigger pvm clans, got scammed once or say they cant find people to pvm with
(prob because there underleveled or already blacklisted for scamming) saying this is a good update cause it will end scamming and you
will feel save. makes no sence it comes down to yourzelf
you decide to go on a trip with these people if you dont trust them dont go, simple

*within the bigger clans scamming is forbidden they will get blacklisted and removed from the clan therefore
most people you pvm with within stud, hero pvm, oblivion or w/e bigger pvm clan dont scam items obtained during lootshare anyway

- Negative inpact on people who like to flip / merc* items
(if you think people that merc*/flip items are "anoying" just log out dont log back in please...)

- People saying lootshare potential will be abused
the lootshare potential should be hidden, I agree there. But if you miss a big item you know you're prob gonne be next to score a drop
this doesnt denie you the right to go corp and try to hit a sigil thats what lsp is for and was always used pre eoc
the people saying it will be abused, either dont have trusted frends or are not part of any trusted pvm clans on this game

@All people who think lootshare is great

Tell me what do you do if you get an Ely LS split? Then you miss the next 30 boss drop items because you have negative LS potential? .. Hopefully it didn't work like that but would anyone explain to me how it works?

And what if I'm PvMing with someone who just missed the ely drop? Why would I want to PvM with them when I know for a fact I stand 0 chance at getting a drop.

It's so broken..

In LS you dont have to split, if you want to split then pvm in instantshare or ffa. lootshare is about missing drop to gain lsp, getting drop to loose lsp NO SPLITTING.

now we not getting LS or IS, most people who wanted it going to be voting no on shardshare. shard share is copy paste from rs3, my shards takes forever to sell. no one will buy shard for same price as original item, they only buy if they can make profit from it. so we have to sell it for cheaper.

If u want old rs2 fun way of pvm. ask for LS

@P E A C E, if i were to get a ely lsp drop it doesnt matter because all the other drops after will be split by my teammates anyway until i even out my lsp (dont forget it took 5% if you were above and gained 5% if you were below 0 potential pre eoc something along them lines)

@ Demo horn like i said i dont pvm with randoms i pvm with frends i trust and anyone should ... why would anyone go on a trip with people they dont know thats why pvm clans were created to get to know eachother and pvm and there is a realy low ammount of scamming within the bigger pvm clans and the higher up the ranks....

I don't know why people think ls or shardshare encourages scamming..**** is meant for you to keep a drop while splitting lsp with your team. If you sell that drop and split it with them, then way to go you're a nice guy, but you will still have negative lsp and they will have positive. However shard share is evenly split and everyone should be happy. When ls/cs was first implemented, the option to toggle between the two made sure that players had the option of sniping a big drop, or gradually increasing their wealth with many splits.

How many friendships/clans have been ruined by the temptation of keeping an ely drop? Make it possible to split it fairly, and then everyone will be able to pvm. Not just the people who have trustworthy friends.

Lootshare and shardshare are great ideas, and I will be voting for them. I hope other people will as well.

Sounds great, I personally dislike the necessity of having to be in a clan with people you dont like just to PvM , this would fix that.

I think a possible clanning system should be reconsidered by the way, just looking at the immaturity of the average clan member, they shouldn't get anything. playing rs since 1976, 40 year vet cape soon

@Wee, clearly you dont understand how PvM works on this game.


Your post:
"Sounds great, I personally dislike the necessity of having to be in a clan with people you dont like just to PvM , this would fix that."


My reply on this would be ur still gonna have to be in a pvm clan to use the shard system
hello did you forget it takes multi people to share the shards... hello lag ... hello ? (p.s ur not gonna find people to PvM in the mingames section these are all low levels with no clan reqs)

also ur saying you have to be in a pvm clan to pvm ... hello laggging again ? are you sure you are on runescape ?
