Whats the point. They will realize their mistake, here in a few months after the update. If anything, I feel this update will do more hurt then help for Runescape. Pures make up for more then 2% of the runescape community, 2% is a gross understatement. You also have to take into account the other "pking builds", most of which will be rendered close to useless. Main pking will be all thats left. Of the mains, alot of the older players have been quitting alot lately, and I know for a fact that whats left of the older main group, the majority of them do not approve of this update. Not only will runescape be losing membership from pures, but the game will lose its originality, what made it unquie. Runescape is bascially copying other MMORPG's- to an extent, with the hotkeys. Hybridding will be.. meh. A lot different, if it will even exist at all (I have not played BETA yet, and I don't intend on it either.) I know recently, ALOT of my friends have quit, meaning the vast majority of them, and the majority of the rest plan on quitting with the update.
While Pures have been an inspiration to this ****** game(from the aspect of pking, I mean who doesn't know about famous pure pkers, from Kids Ranqe to that one kid from foe who fails alot<3), we've always been the outcasts in the community, hence why we tend to stick to our own private community. This combat update will probably destroy us, in all honest, and if not, things will have changed, and not for the better. Jagex has shown that they do not care about us. And in all honesty, when has jagex ever overturned something for the underdog in a major decision (aside from allowing swiftkit back in the day when they banned all 3rd party clients to rid the game of botting.)
Take a look at the "OLD" wilderness being brought back. (and on that note, I honestly preferred bh to all of these 2k10 idiots bringing their ******** to the old wilderness, but let us not go there.)
There was a minority (mainly the skillers/retards who didn't want free trade back due to rwting/botting outbreaks/etc even though botting was quite popular during this time period anyway, as was rwting, it just made it slightly harder to xfer money from account to account) who didn't want the change. Jagex basically **** on them, as they are ******** on us now. Its been a good run boys. Props to MM for being the only true pure clan from the beginning to the end. Respect breh. Oh and FI is #1<3
