    Problems With Wild

    You label it as passive aggression I label it as constructive criticism. Problem is you aren't being open mined to the problem. Rationalize or butter it up in any way shape or form you wish but the reality is players will continue to leave as said in my past post. Everyone seems to be taking my thread as wanting to remove the wild. Which I'm not-It was made to open the idea of bringing an item and/or ability to proper balance between the pkers and the pvmers giving the casual players a chance to participate in the high tier tasks that more or less will result in a bad investment on their end. Also real RS3/OSRS doesn't have ONE world for EVERY player to join where at least one person is CAMPING the entrance/exits of the event. THAT is the problem. Not PKING. It's people disrupting areas every 10min that HALTS all other players in low-medium pool from performing any top tier activity. The problem is that this server revolves around the 3RD TIER POOL as I mentioned & How they play the game. Anyone who comes forth with disagreement or opinion on a subject that's clearly an issue, is all dismissed & refusing to be open to new information. As I said, its clear this idea will not be considered at all, which I'm cool with that. I don't need to talk, the rankings will do it for me. As long as you guys are okay with keeping favorite tabs on regular donators at the expense of new players then my opinion shouldn't matter or hold any weight to you or the servers goals.

    And that's completely fine-Everyone's entitled to their opinion and figured players of the 3rd pool will disagree. In your own world where you think it's 1 or 2 people in reality it is several people sitting in exits mainly at lava birds and chest. If you'd like I'd be happy to record some footage and upload just to show how harassing the wild can be so that everyone else may see it. It's easy for everyone in the 3rd pool to not agree since they aren't the one's having to deal with it. Grief is being allowed on the server while other's are just trying to live out their adventure in the game that was promoted claiming to be "Community friendly". With you being a mod,I'm quite dazzled there isn't a slightest interest in watching this community rise in ratings as well as population. When your most annoying players who "can't handle being attacked" Repeatedly complain over this it becomes your main problem and would think you'd have a taste in fixing that. It's fine though, you're stuck on your decision & I respect that, But if this issue continues then so will the people leaving and will ultimately be the reason the server remains hindered from growth making your Youtube promotions all for nothing giving it one more reason why it's lower in rankings compared to others. Enjoy your day folks.

    But see his statement is set up as if the other player is looking for a fight. Him in his fancy pvp armor or even someone in mystic or ahrims vs someone in low grade gear at ankous or Someone in hunter gear at Lava birds will put up no match. Even at dailys players get TBed - > k0ed -> Repeated when they return to finish.

    How they obtained the key isn't really the concern more than it is players waiting outside or within the proximity of the chest as I mentioned in my earlier post. I also understand that most of the content is obtainable outside the wilderness as well but its the mild stones of the players earning the money to reach these end game items. The resources the medium tier has is less that of high tiers. It can be rationalized & colored in different areas to seem like not much of a difference but in reality the medium class is at a high disadvantage of evolving out of their pool. It can be seen either way but when there's a chunk of players leaving for the same reason it becomes a more than an opinion. After learning these limitations players will continue to leave until a balance is brought because right now it's only in favors of those who do PK Since they HAVE reached near end game level + money to cover any losses regardless of a win or loss and shows to be a total block for anyone grinding for that title.

    Sure it's that simple however they're limited to certain aspects of the game while avoiding the wild. Perhaps you had better luck however I've had to log 3x by gaining only 150 lava feathers not mentioning the time having to invest off the game by waiting for the them to leave the area. The Green drag and ankous arent much of a problem at this time (4:41 Am Western-7:41AM Eastern) but during the day time its more active. The ones really affected are those restricted from experiencing the fights from Lava demons + roughly half the Bosses (Wild bosses containing the best loot) \ Loot from lava chests \ Cursed items \ Cursed slayer tasks \ Skillers from Hunting/Fishing in lava section And I'm sure is many others not listed off the top of my head. That's a huge chunk of the game these players will not be experiencing because of the problem. Who really wants to play on an RSPS where their best lootable drop is less than that of 500m while seeing the top tiers get their end game item drops. They're restricted from accessing basically any end game content by avoiding wild. By adding anything to bring a sense of balance will bring much more comfortability between players and put the server that much higher in the ranks. It's not being killed that makes these players leave...it's the act of being harassed out of an area neglecting them of their goals is what will make them leave. I understand this server has another one that specializes in pkers? So this server should revolve more around the favors of pvmers and leave the pk play style for those who came looking for it.

    Yeah it does come down to luck however it sets them at an extreme advantage when billions is vs millions when invested in gear. Also literally everybody who is decked out is close friends with most in their own pool and they respect others so when one goes out to purchase 10 lava keys at a time nobodies there to disrupt unlike a Mod or other decked out player is there to quickly ambush. There may be a few that fight on sight as you say but majority decide to let their friends be. Regardless of the intentions it's showing a strong message that only the high donated players are the ones who face the least issues when compared to new players. I've been here a week & watched 3 new players say they're switching after being harassed in the daily wild spawn points being camped and then being flamed in chat when its brought up. It wouldn't need an immediate activation and won't have a postpone ability. Once its activated it gives invulnerability from other players less say an hour and will only be deactivated by timing running out or initiating a fight. As I said, it will give every a fair chance even if its in a little amount. It's also difficult to prepare when you're stuck in the deep wild dealing with barrage/snares. Doesn't matter what you prepare for, you're dead either way.

    As everyone knows that the high to even medium level money making methods involve the wild which restricts us in variety of ways. So community wise, this server is split up into 3 pools of players. The first pool consisting of new players/skillers. The second pool having Irons/Casual players with average/above average cash. Then the 3rd pool consisting of the players with the most cash/Youtubers/Mods etc. Now the problem within that is for one main thing...in the 3rd pool, everyone knows each other. Which ultimately gives them the most control of the wild considering they're able to finish even the most difficult tasks in the wild with a quick request of a friend. With this pool having the most cash, so expect them to bring the best gear that will out do any gear that the medium pool will be bringing. Yesterday I hunted for the first time in the Lava maze. Got pked several times, which is normal in the wild. That wasn't the issue. What was the issue is when a player is fully decked out waiting for any players at the exit. I logged out, hoping to pick up later only to return an hour later with the same guy standing in the original spot. I ran back to the hunting spot and once again auto logged and returned 30min later to the guy standing in the hunter spot waiting to pk my freshly purchased lava key. Which puts my play style at a high inconvenience state when players are basically backed into a wall like this that allows the 3rd pool to continue to run the wild rising growth in their own play experience while the medium tier struggles to surpass their current state while having to resort to medium level methods. Before anyone decides to give a counter argument with "Its the wild & how the game is designed etc" I get that its the wild. I get that its how it is. For anyone that has any interest in watching the community to grow should have enough insight to see when other medium tier players remain immobilized for so long by being so tightly restricted unless large amounts of money are donated or are close friends with somebody known in that pool, then they will not be able to complete many simple achievements such as opening a lava chest & most likely will leave to a server that respects the space of others. It prohibits not only the dailys, but also will be limited from enjoying the full potential of the game by not participating in the top end bosses or events that take place in the wild. So with this in mind I believe a simple daily timer that disconnects the player from being able to be attacked in wild for x amount of time or even a token that provides this. Even if its in low time, it will at least give every player a chance to enjoy even the hardest tasks in the game without worrying about being stripped & killed before even able to complete the goal. Thanks for taking the time to read.

    Can't start RuneX Client

    Yesterday I was doing Fight Caves and had a random DC. After regaining access to the internet I went to open the Runex client which opens then closes without loading any further. I tried deleting then redownloading it and nothing happened. I'm on Windows 10
