Jagex broke the rules....Interesting....

This is a post I read on the forums...

------------------------------
Well, good day to you fellow citizens of Gleinor. It seems in our past, the most notorious individuals; the most relatively disliked (fairly or not) were the scammers and lurers - in short, the breakers of the second rule of conduct for this site.

Yet, there exists a single entity that has broken both the word and principles of this rule. If for some reason you didn't read my title; quite simple, Jagex itself! Now, how you may ask. They to my knowledge haven't made anyone to cross the wilderness ditch (which is in effect pointless now seeing as PvP no longer exists aside from two isolated minigames within), or switched items in a trade. No, they've done something far more nefarious - and in my mind, the most important part of rule two.

To quote Jagex istelf on the rule two article: "It is not our intention to set player-limits on what they trade." Hmm, is that so? I'd say the recent updates to the game have done just that. I'd say that Jagex has harmed the game far more than any lurer or scammer of the past, and are by far the most nefarious rulebreakers of the game.

To further quote them, "You must not scam or deceive [...] players. Lying to [...] players for your own personal gain is NOT IN THE SPIRIT OF THE GAME and WILL NOT BE TOLERATED."

Interesting choice of words indeed, Jagex.

He does make a point....

where did you get this? and what is rule 2? rofl. who posted it as well?. if that is true then i dont think we can do anythign about it seeing that Jagex has all the power.

 

[Premonition]

I believe rule 2 is no item scamming.

 

[Lord Dante]

Lol, This is funny. Also, I don't read the rules.

[Macroman]

I was going to point this out, I remember reading somewhere about limits of trades.

Nice find.

 

[uber nub22]

He may have been wrong about it being rule 2, but he put that the rule article says It is not our intention to set player-limits on what they trade, but with the recent updates, they did that, breaking the rule.

 

[Young Murda]

He has a very good point there.
They'll probably just delete it from the rules page in the knowledge base, and try to brainwash us with another horrible update. [/sarcasm]

 

[Merchant Millz]

There are rules?

 

[Dorito]

Yes, it's been brought up a few times on the official forums. Quite interesting how Jagex has went back on their own words.

 

[Lord Dante]

So, What was there re-action?
I bet it was shocking.

1) I right now hate Jagex's updates.
2) However at the same time, all of your literary skills fail.

It says ""It is not our intention to set player-limits on what they trade."
It never said they wouldn't limit price, only they wouldn't limit WHAT they traded.

 

[uber nub22]

Yeah, but they do limit what you trade, your brain skills fail. Its not the exact item of what you trade, but what you trade for what, and it seems as though they are setting player limits on what you trade, because they both have to be the same price, and the whole reason they said that is for people that have gotten scammed out of trading something valuable for something cheap. Now the update has made it so that if you did go to trade something valuable for something cheap, it wouldn't allow it, which makes them breaking the rules because they ARE setting limits onto what you trade because they have to match pricewise. Now jessywynne1993, how about before youcontradict us on our literary skills, you should probably think about why they said that, not just the particular sentence.
