"I stopped reading it for a reason (you state a CLEAR bias in favour of those who want noted addy bars). And, if you 'hate' GWD what do you care what is dropped or what form it's dropped in? "

Bias,...

Do you not know the definition of compromise?

To google for you...

"To arrive at a settlement by making concessions."

I tried to find one that your little pea sized brain could comprehend.

Why do I say 'pea sized brain'?

- You laughed at making the drop of the addy bars untradeable/unalchable. You know why it would be a good idea, because 3.5k times 28 is 98k. Nobody will farm avansies let alone even kill them or waste inventory spots picking up the bars. So making them untradeable would be good for people who want to raise their smithing.

Any other dumb remarks you want to make to me? Next time don't stop, finish reading. My suggestion was a good one.

I don't mind the addy bars being unnoted because that was my way of paying off the trip a tad bit if i didn't get anything from armadyl. I would rather get supplies. Godwars so far looks like its 74% yes. Some youtubers have videos on preparing for it and have a lot of likes which in turn could mean a yes vote. There's a thread with only 26% no voters and most of them are idiots. If you have seen it then you know what i mean. Idiots claiming this killed runescape, weapons overpowered and what not....are mainly from people who don't even pk or pvm or who couldn't complete monkey madness. No armour or weapon in the game will be devalued because prices and stats are what matters. Barrows armours was always the top armour until nex armour and ganodermic came here. Bandos defense stats are whack vs barrows but ppl want it for str and prayer bonus. The d scimmy will always be a str training method because people don't realize it's awesome with a rune defender or zammy book if you are at bandits.

The whip will always be great for att and def if you dont use guthans. The sara sword/godswords will help with waterfiend tasks. Now why runescape died down in 2007 is simple.....after godwars, if you look at the trends...december runescape was at its highest.

If godwars came out in august.....how did godwars kill this game? OHHH did you all forget that free trade and the wildy was taken away?.....or that the grand exchange was brought to fight free trading restrictions? GWD did not lead to eoc. EOC is suppose to combat the combat triangle being unbalanced...which is what these NO voters are saying...AGAIN.

Melee is not overpowered...it has more weapons/armour...thats it. Range in my opinion is overpowered but it's fair because it requires void to be overpowered. Mage can't hit so much with ice barrage but it requires 94 mage and quest....but freezing someone for up to 15 secs is fair i think? Learn to use weaknesses people.

''You laughed at making the drop of the addy bars untradeable/unalchable.''

You're confused hun. Here, let me clear it up for you:

I laughed so hard, because you said 'you need 75% for it to pass' and *I* don't want the currently offered GWD TO PASS. ROFL. *I* don't need anything of the sort.

As to 'next time don't stop' with regarding to reading your posts.. nty. Clearly YOU think your idea is a good idea.. it's YOUR idea after all.

However, to 'bottom line it' so to speak... at this point in time.. the addy bars being unnoted is NOT a poll question (and while it -could- end up one, it isn't presently stated as being one).

But no, making addy bars untradeable would just be stupid (unless you're also suggesting that ALL bars be untradeable as well).

Oh and you might want to save your insults.. for somebody who cares lmao! "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -Martin Luther King Jr.

No offense, but to make addy bars untradable when dropped by one monster in 1 part of the game, and not untradeable anywhere else in the game would be nearly impossible without an engine team and alot of time, even then it would be a huge pain in the butt. However, allowing them to be dropped in unnoted form and adding an anvil, actually wasn't that half bad of an idea, it would allow people who have gotten there smithing up to be rewarded, and it wouldnt really be all that fast of smithing xp, magic xp, or gold per hour, because you would be dividing your time between killing avianse, smithing and alching, and you wouldn't be able to have a full invy as you would need at minimum, a hammer, and alch runes, and probably a guthans switch or some food. Plus getting to the point where you can smith addy in the first place is no picnic.

Anywho,
@ Tyria, it is impolite to read an entire post before commenting on it.

@ Jagex i dont want addy bars dropped personally, but i do think i should have the right to vote no for the update.

Yeah and it's also polite to NOT call people names just because they disagree with you (or otherwise insult them because you don't like what they have to say) but I don't see you pointing that out.

@RangeSlaer:

In every game I play, I play as a ranger as often as possible, not all games have rangers (bow users who cast spells is not a ranger) but one thing I don't do..is PvP, with the exception of a single game (that I can't name) because of the armor rewards from it, it's no risk, so it's full of people who just want to have fun/learn combos and get the rewards..not this bloodbath of overly serious people who want to make bank off of kills.

AGS wouldn't need nerfed if there were Magic and Range weapons equivalent, and no I'm not talking about a bow that lets players hit 70+ with arrows or a staff that allows Ancients users to dominate Castle Wars, but to have a dungeon with 4 melee weapons and no mage or range weapons or dinky little crossbows that simply look a little better than rune or a knock off of the real SoL isn't balanced.

I'd love to see a 2h bow and a staff/wand and book added to GWD, even giving the fake SoL an MSB-type spec, allowing it to fire 2 spells at once, using the runes for both spells would be better than nothing, and a step in the right direction for giving players more options for (''efficient'') combat. Maybe give the bow a spec that increases the next few shots by 5, something more than a little crossbow..If you couldn't tell, I'm not a fan of crossbows because I prefer Rangers, not Gunners.

Jagex could also simply give us decent weapons with no specs, players seemed to like Chaotics when they were released, even though they didn't have specs, so let the GS keep their uniqueness and just throw us rangers and mages something to not make it seem as though this old server will simply repeat every step along the way to becoming Pre-EoC..or just tell us flat out, this is Pre-EoC and put in everything that was there and stop doing polls.

I came back for the old game, my main focuses were getting 99 range again, killing Jad, getting my Void back (not RS3's sewer grate robes) and my Armadyl/ranger set..possibly my Dagon'hai.

If you don't care about GWD coming back, then why are you bashing people for having ideas concerning it?

Because you're a troll.

Good day.

1. I'm NOT bashing anybody
2. I'm NOT the one who said I don't care about GWD coming out (and I'm also NOT the one who said they 'hate' GWD)
3. I've been called much worse, by better people :P "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -Martin Luther King Jr.

Im not even sure how you would make addy bars untradeable and still gain smithing experience off of them. . . . Tbh i guess if you simply create them as a new item within gwd it wouldnt be that hard. But then everything you smithed from them would have to be a new item and untradeable as well, and be an untradeable drop in pvp. . . and addy nails for houses. . . and how would alching work? just a dumb idea man it could not work sorry. . . i know for skilling reasons its important to you, but you would need to come up with another idea.

@Rangeslaer (edit)...Thank you, for reading my prior posts.

Yes the untradeable thing would pretty much be impossible to do, I'm aware.

I don't even have the smithing required to smith anything addy yet, but I'll get there if they give me an anvil.

Thank you again. I'm not coming back to post on the forums for a long while, this was not a pleasant experience and I got carried away with insulting someone for not reading my post. I play league of legends, I should be used to trolls by now.
