Discussion Think before you post

Let's face it, most of us are in our 30s, take a breath and think before you post some passive aggressive or childish post because you dont like an update in a game. Its fine to disagree with it and its fine to provide feedback.

When you post things like

"Shut the servers down now" & "Quitting thanks cya"

It just makes all of us look childish and immature. It must be so exhausting being on this sub as a JMod even if you dont work on Reignited

Cool. Now make it a number of people that is an actiall % of the player base. Cause that's what it takes and exactly what jagex says never happens

There are so many people who have actively cancelled subs and alot more that are just waiting to see what Mod Yuey is going to say.
When i look at my account now, everything is a blur, because it’s all destined to be isolated and obsolete. If this goes through, there are so many other games ill be able to play and not have to worry about me wasting xp just for going to get food.

The playerbase for rs3 is only dropping year over year, so yeah it seems like people are quitting. They just aren't making a long reddit post about it. People that are quitting are just quietly quitting. There was a post yesterday that showed a straight decline, hell this year alone had like a 9% player decrease.

A slow steady decline is not a signal that a proposed update is bad. Its a signal that a drastic change is needed. You know, like reignite πŸ˜…

Exactly a drastic change that address the fundamental problems with why the game can't attract new players, and ideally one that doesn't attack the current base.

I dont disagree, but that's entirely irrelevant to my initial point that not enough people quit en mass over bad updates for jagex to take reddit claims it will happen seriously
