Is Runescape even enjoyable anymore? email this discussion to a friend?

Updates such as the trade limit, removing PKing from the wilderness, and even the Grand Exchange have been major factors as to why I quit Runescape. Do you still enjoy Runescape with these updates? And if you quit Runescape, do you think you'll ever play again if the trade limit and PKing were restored?

I have to admit, none of those things affected my level of playing with Runescape. I very rarely ever attempted PKing, so that was no loss for me. I don't trade all that much, so again no big loss. I do oddly enjoy the Grand Exchange though since it makes selling things easier, but I can understand why some people dislike it. I haven't played in about a month or so, but it's not due to those updates. I've played off and on for some time now.

I was rather happy with those updates. No more idiotic pkers to have to kill while I'm hunting red dragons, No more bots cutting the trees I'm after, No standing in banks trying to sell the extra supplies I have. There's so much more to the game than just killing other players.

i liked those updates because they got rid of the auto bots which completely ruined runescape. it was almost impossible to get a yew tree that didn't have 10-20 bots surrounding it.

i never pk'ed and neither killed monsters in the wild so the wilderness update didnt affect me at all.

and as for the Grand Exchange, i think it the best update! no more time wasting in the banks in order to sell your item or search for good deal to buy the required item. now you just give your request and your get/sell your item in no time. and even if the the item is not available in the exchange or there are no buyers for the item that u are selling, the trade request remains pending and you most definitely get/sell your item after a few hours or next day.

Like the others before me, those updates did nothing to diminish my enjoyment of Runescape. In fact, it has made me enjoy it more. I wasn't into pk'ing, so that's no loss to me. The trade limit just means I don't have to try to find a nice way of telling someone why I won't give them something expensive. The GE is wonderful. I always hated dealing with other people to buy and sell things. The GE takes care of that problem.

By the way, in case you didn't know, Jagex is releasing PvP only worlds sometime this month. They also recently increased the trade margins. Now nonmembers have up to 10k and members have up to somewhere around 45k.

i think adding all those sucks.

1. trade limit.. people can't generously give cash to help others..
2. pk removal.. pk is needed in EVERY game. it's the reason why you lvl your toon.. so you could beat the hell out of other people.. now there's no reason


thats all i could think of now.. yea it IS good that the updates will help stop botting but still.. there's no reason of playing it anymore.. grand exchange was pretty good.. just like in most games.. there was an auction area or something. there's the three BASIC things you need to have in a successful mmorpg

1. Auction
2. PVP
3. A point of playing.. exciting stuff so you could lvl.

cause why would you lvl when there's no exciting stuff that we could get?

when pk-ing still existed i didn't really understand the game so i quit for quite some time and now i play but not much of a loss plus idc bout the trade thing i just sell my stuff at GE plus they makin pvp worlds probibally next week or in 2 weeks so doesn't matter and trade margin increased a bit so no more worrying about not being able to help others.

if you think about it, every one of these updates has their good, and their bads.
1. the trade limit makes it hatd to scam...and you always get a fair price for what you are buying or selling.
2.no more pking means you can go into the wildy to train on the monsters that only live there...without having your butt kicked by a lvl 126
ive also read that there are going to be full worlds where u can pk...coming out this month!!! you may not get all the player that u killed's drops...but its still awesome.
for me runescape is one of those games that i play off and on...but probably more on the on side now that pk worlds are coming out.

I have to admit too that, these updates made me quit playing runescape because it`s not that fun anymore.Long time ogo, when I wanted to have fun, me and my friends were going to an Internet Cafe and Pk`ed almost all nigh.That was so much fun ..... nice days.Olso when a friend started playing runescape...we were helping him with items and cash, but now it`s not posible.If the trade limit and PK would be just like in the good times, I would start playing again.

Well I've started playing runescape about 3 years ago, I've played for like a week or two and stopped. Then in the next two years (since than and utill one year ago) I've played Runescape on and off like 1 week playing, 4 months not.
But just like you said, more and more updates came in and took away the whole experience of the game, and now? It's not even fun anymore if ur not a member since the diffrence is so big! and as a matter of fact I don't think being a member would be fun also (Of course I'm not a member so I can't really tell).
