Unpopular Opinion: Reddit is the LAST place Jagex should go to for accurate feedback. /u/Son_of_Plato Old School RuneScape!

The upvote/downvote system combined with the demographic of the reddit community mean that popular ideas no matter how stupid and shitty will get upvoted (90% of the time it’s based on how meme worthy it is) and ideas that people don’t want to hear but are important for longevity and long term enjoyment will get downvoted and buried into obscurity. You shouldn’t rely on a bunch of redditors to dictate how you develop the game – and just because there is popular opinion about something doesn’t mean it’s the right decision.

Echo chambers aren’t where you go for diverse, accurate feedback.

Perm Mute – What I’ve Learned /u/Turo_Guide Old School RuneScape!

Perm Mute – What I’ve Learned /u/Turo_Guide Old School RuneScape!

Coming up on my second year of being perma muted on my 7.5yr old ironman.

When I was perma muted my first thought was to create a new account. Given how many hours and work I poured into my ironman there was just no way of ever starting a new account (2,100+ total level).

Instead, my mindset was if I continued playing my iron this would be “serving out my punishment”.

So almost two years later, I’ve been playing daily without being able to talk in game. Surprisingly, it has taken a bit of a mental toll on me from time to time which I didn’t expect. About one year in it made me realize how much of my ‘social life’ came from OSRS. It really sucks not being able to say gzz to clan mates when they level up.

I think one year in is where I actually started realizing how much of a toxic monster I was. I’ve been an active player since I was 11 years old and honestly it feels like I don’t deserve to be apart of the community for the things I’ve said.

It honestly embarrasses me that my actions led to a permanent mute. This experience has given me time to slowly reflect on it all.

Sorry everyone.

Can’t help but feel bad for Jagex /u/FlahlesJr Old School RuneScape!

Can’t help but feel bad for Jagex /u/FlahlesJr Old School RuneScape!

They just can’t seem to win. This project rebalance shows how nitpicky this community is. We first get posts asking for eternals to get %dmg and then after they do, people start complaining about needing to bring an extra swap. Thank god these mods have love for this game, b/c they just can’t seem to win with this community. I’ll be one to say thank you for all you guys do and put up with!
