Wasn't directly referring to you. Just the outbreak of calling out mod actions and how they've "ignored the polls", "refused to poll" over the past few pages. It gets annoying when you spend time reading threads on the forums and see nothing but posts calling out JMods for X, Y and Z over some update in the past and not actually offering a solution.

Hey jagex.. you can't have any money from me when this membership expires because.. Experience said so.


Please find the part of my post where I state "Angel you should never resubscribe". It doesn't exist so I guess I can give you your own advice you always give me straight back to you. Stop assuming what people are saying.

I also don't need your "membership status" as a reason to justify your complaints because in all honesty I'm pretty sure some people are just sick of reading the "I don't play this game because of JMod X doing Y" on every thread you post. You've essentially just become one of those people that keep saying they've "quit" the game but keep hanging around. Which one is it?


It's funny how you single out MY OPINION on any given topic and disagree (not respectfully, but disagree nonetheless). See you don't have to like my opinion or pov. You don't have to agree with it. You don't have to respond to it. You can carry on your merry little way.

I'll 'hang around' as long as I like (I'm sure you've seen THAT comment on more than one thread I've been a poster on).

Which is it? Hmm.. well, I just logged in to prep for planting my second spirit tree and it told me I last logged in nearly 3 weeks ago and that I have a few days of membership left.

Since it's clearly so important to you, what I do (ROFLMFAO) I'm thinking I might spend the evening playing in order to determine if there's reason to use another bond for more membership (I don't need to, my stats allow me to post in forums, even as a f2p, but what the hell, might as well look and see if I can get interested in the mess it's become).

Please though, I'm a Jane Q. Public. You really shouldn't focus so much of your attention on little ole me. =)

and for the mods/devs out there the location of a.i.r. on fairy rings when right clicking has 2 options of last-location instead of configure/last locaton, i have already reported this on the bug forum in game but figured i would mention here, there 2nd option of last location still functions as the configure option its just seems to be a typeo in the text box

Making a change without polling it undermines all that OldSchool RuneScape is supposed to be.


Looks like I will not be renewing my membership after it expires.

Not to mention the changes are very stupid, considering the amount being staked (and about being x'd) will affect the desired rules. If you would go back and re-read the initial thread about these suggested changes, you'll see that everyone who actually uses the duel arena opposed the changes. It was only people that never use the arena that posted in support of them.

Hi Jagex, what's wrong with Farmer Gricoller's brain? I made 2 times combined more then 100 Points on his farm and both times i want get anything from his rewards, it had deleted my whole Points to 0! I do have much more to do at Real Life instead to waste my time here for 0 rewards and 0 Points. I am off now is much better.

If last week when they first updated the fairy rings and the options had gone left click takes you to zanaris, 1st right click is custom dial and 2nd right click is last used, would you have been giving feedback to Jagex of "make the left click fairy ring be dial instead"? Honest answer, would it have affected you that much?

Secondly. If today the change had instead been that left click would remain dial, 1st right click would be last dial and a 2nd right click would be Zanaris, would you have been complaining and demanding a poll like you have just now?


The main complaint is, they polled it, and they changed it.

Then because of some complaints, they changed it again. It makes it look like those people are more important. If some people now complain about them changing it back, what do they do. which group of complainants are more important?

The obvious thing to do would have been to poll both options first. Of course this would have shown more foresight than I've seen by Jagex in a long time.

And I'll actually call Mods out for this. They made the change, if people had issues it shouldn't have been arbitrarily changed for them, it looks like favouritism. We have no idea of how many complained. As Taank says, Poll it with a simple Majority to choose. It might well pass by a huge number of votes but at the moment it looks like favouritism to certain players.

In my view the wording used in 2 changes this week have been very poor and opens the game up to changes without the use of polls.

We actually agree to an extent on both your points, but they were just in my view implemented wrongly. It might be a small point to you, but it's obviously not to others.

The polls were supposed to hold up the game to a higher standard they shouldn't be doing anything to lower this standard.
thinks Jagex should honour the results of the original Old School Poll

the funniest thing is people are going to think that theyre safe when staking, when in reality the bond glitch is still in tact (THE BIGGEST DUEL ARENA SCAM THERE IS) - "players use 3 bonds, 2 on 1 acc 1 on the other, and it makes the acc you choose the show different stats, (this lasts for 10-15 minutes before highscores is updated)

SO YOU COMPLETLY CHANGE THE ARENA OPTIONS AND LEAVE OUT THE MAIN SCAM WELL DONE JAGEX WELL DONE
