What's your biggest RS pet peeve?
« on: October 09, 2015, 22:06:11 »
We're all playing the same game and we all have different opinions on many subject in the game.

So I ask you all ... What is your biggest Runescape pet peeve?

Here's my biggest pet peeve;
The community - People are AFKing too much in the game and it's destroying the social aspect of talking to one another, whether we're in a clan or just standing at the bank skilling.
People are far too focused on XP nowadays to even care about standing around, goofing about with friends.

Another pet peeve, would have to be that the game is too AFK. (Also relates to my first pet peeve).
I believe that the most AFK methods in-game (Seren stones, Runespan, Crystal trees/Ivy) should half their XP halved OR make the less-AFK and more grindy methods of training better XP than the AFK versions.

Trolls probably, wilfully ignorant people who seemingly do not understand what respecting another individual means. We need more love and empathy!

I agree with AFK xp rates needing to be nerfed, but at this point, XP has been so devalued that not a lot of people really care when they release content to devalue it further. 120 has become the new 99 and it won't be long until it progresses even further. I don't think I could bring myself to play non-afk content for a long period of time anymore because the grind is pointless to me when the achievement means nothing. In that respect, I do appreciate the AFK content

I think people get too focused on the end - I like some afk when I have other stuff to do - but the journey is why I play.  It is hard to play a lot of the d&ds because people are so focused on maxing out the experience they don't let it be fun.  A couple of times when I have been playing sinkholes I have seen the top person intentionally give the bottom person (not always me surprisingly :) ) - the jumbo lamp.  I love things like that.  I love doing afk kinds of things and having good conversations - but I also like fun content.  I don't like when people get so focused on numbers they do things like buy pre-leveled chars or  kill peng hunters in the wildy to up their killcount...

Biggest pet peeve is probably when people judge others' training methods. If I'm fletching using maples, just let me use maples don't make fun of me and call me poor because I'm not doing broad arrows or dragon darts or whatever. If I'm cutting Yews instead of ivy, maybe I just wanna make some cash and don't care about getting a ton of xp.
You're here for a reason
Living and breathing
If you keep on trying, someday you'll find out why
If I love you, I miss you cause I probably haven't seen you in a
Long, long time

Just don't let it be the last time
You come into my life
No, don't let it be the last time
You come into my life

My peeve list gets longer and longer :(

Warbands started the decline in my respect for this game, huge amounts of xp for not actually trainig the skill, the way it seems acceptable to for people to use "alts" to gain even more xp.

Prif once again, separating the community even more. Afk everything if you listen to whats said.

OSRS, the way they cannot interact with the cc has made the rs community even more separated, this can be broken down even further to iron men, ultimate iron and hard core iron men. 

jagex have neglected clans with no  update even mentioned as far as I can remember.  Thet have said they have no intentions of making more skill plots in the citadel, merging osrs and rs3 ccs.  What do they do to encoutage group anything?  apart from combat updates.

As Red has said trolls and the reporting system is atrocious, do they care about the community anymore?   

If I think of any more I will add them :)

People concerned about xp waste - it's a game!

Community kinda sucks

Literally can't trust anybody in game. I've been scammed so many times trying to help people out, luckily not at a huge loss.
