Wayne 289 Posted September 18, 2017 (edited) Just a few questions, you're not obligated to answer them.. It would be appreciated though @Ryan How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? How many hours per week do you typically spend coding Runex? Are you overwhelmed controlling 2 servers at a time? Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? Is this server struggling? (An honest answer would be appreciated) Is it your personal preference to only have Staff Member ranks on both of your forums? What's your thoughts on the current Economic state of Runex? Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) Did you ever own any other RSPS's aside from SpawnPK/Runex? I'm an RSPS Veteran myself, just curious if I ever played one of your discontinued servers. Are you a Pker? You've coded one of the best Pking servers I've ever played, I assume you have an avid Pking background? Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? @Ramzi How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? Are you overwhelmed Administrating 2 servers at a time? Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) How did you come up with your Username 'Ramzi'? Are you as active as you wish to be? Anything slowing you down? Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? Have you ever coded? @Nate How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? How many hours per week do you typically spend coding Runex? Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? What's your thoughts on the current Economic state of Runex? Are you as active as you wish to be? Anything slowing you down? Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? All questions have been answered below Spoiler On 9/18/2017 at 1:24 PM, Ryan said: @Ryan How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? 5+ years How many hours per week do you typically spend coding Runex? It varies based on the tasks at hand for that week. Sometimes 30-40, sometimes it can be 50+, etc. Are you overwhelmed controlling 2 servers at a time? No Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? Yes Is this server struggling? (An honest answer would be appreciated) There's always room for improvement, but no, I don't think it's struggling Is it your personal preference to only have Staff Member ranks on both of your forums? Are you referring to the exclusion of donator ranks? I still would like to implement donator ranks/badges, but my plan is to have in-game integration with the forums so it can automatically detect your donator rank and apply it. This may take a while to find the time for, but I'd expect it in the near future. What's your thoughts on the current Economic state of Runex? Gold input/output seems to be heading in the right direction. On the other hand, there are many items that need to be sinked/disposed from the economy We have updates planned to effectively mend this, so stay tuned! Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) I have other projects outside of RSPS, but they're not necessarily full-time Did you ever own any other RSPS's aside from SpawnPK/Runex? I'm an RSPS Veteran myself, just curious if I ever played one of your discontinued servers. Yes. I'd rather not disclose the names of those servers, but I'm sure you'd find out if you asked around Are you a Pker? You've coded one of the best Pking servers I've ever played, I assume you have an avid Pking background? I was never much of a pker, but I've always understood its appeal Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? Yes. There is still a long way to go, but nonetheless, I think we've made great progress in retrospect Spoiler @Ramzi How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? 2+ years to be honest, which is fairly new. But I have learned a lot from Ryan, Nate, and the players Are you overwhelmed Administrating 2 servers at a time? Not at all, I actually really enjoy it Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? Yes. Mostly just super smash bros melee recently Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) I have other projects outside of RSPS yes How did you come up with your Username 'Ramzi'? Its part of my name Are you as active as you wish to be? Anything slowing you down? Recently I have been able to be around more and increase my activity, but I could always improve in this aspect. I would like to communicate with the community more Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? Yes, but there is a lot more to be done Have you ever coded? Very very little, I started to learn the basics. I soon realized that it is not something I really enjoy. I enjoy talking and interacting with others, hence my position Spoiler @Nate How many years have you been apart of the RSPS Community? Honestly I've lost count but at least 9 years. How many hours per week do you typically spend coding Runex? Varies week to week but for the most part it takes up about the same time as a full time job. (40 hours) but best believe I wouldn't be doing it if I didn't enjoy the living f**k out of what I do. Do you play any other games, aside from RSPS's/Runescape? Overwatch is something I play often but other than that I'll try games but get bored quickly these days honestly. If anyone has good recommendations please throw them my way! What's your thoughts on the current Economic state of Runex? I always think improvement can be done regardless of what state anything is in, game and life included. You only sell yourself short if you settle for the level you are at. Like why not at least continue to get better for the thrill of it?? Are you as active as you wish to be? Anything slowing you down? I won't be able to be as active as I'd like for a bit but I was thoroughly enjoying the communication I had with the community when I was online these last few months. Big thanks to the players for being actuallly really cool lol, past endeavors have lead me to assume most people are bitter but the good players of runex restore my faith with their unique quirkiness and personalities. Shoutouts to a couple people! @Roger @Chandler @Logical @Safi @callbackup @fe and literally honestly everyone else. No matter what diversity or craziness I'm glad you guys enjoy what we do and I'm seriously one thankful mofo because of it. Love you guys. Do you have a full-time job, aside from RSPS's? (Yes/No) Yes I worked retail and management alongside RSPS but now I just work on different projects and write in my free time. I'm not a "writer" per se but it's definitely a fun thing to do if you haven't tried it! Are you happy with the outcome of Runex thus far? Yes!! If you saw what I said above I love y'all and I mean it. There's a LOT of negative lame junk out there in other RSPS and in the rs community in general tbh but our community continues to pleasanalty surprise me. Not only in your overwhelmingly epic support but in your vocal suggestions and care for the server. It does inspire me when I see that stuff so please never stop posting your creative and unique input and suggestions my dudes. Much love.

Iron Logic 910 Posted September 20, 2017 11 minutes ago, Nate said: If anyone has good recommendations please throw them my way! I found a game a while ago that literally eats my time. It's called like Ruxen or something along those lines, you should play that! Big thank you to @Ryan @Ramzi and @Nate for replying here, to a lot of people you are just machines that code and reset passwords and are pretty rare to see. Things like this are just so great to see and it gives us a really good insight into the people beyond the 'owner' title. Huge respect to @Wayne for asking this as well, it's little things like this that bring the community together and is just amazing to see. What are the chances of seeing a weekly or biweekly 'QnA' post? It would be cool if users could submit their own questions under the previous thread. Would also lead to more community interaction and forums activity in general. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
