#453218 ICE Tile Race

Posted by Ice on 11 February 2023 - 01:02 PM

PsSfNG7.png

 

Info:

Teams of three will compete in a Monopoly-style Runescape board game. Each team will begin on the starting tile and will roll a die to see how many tiles they can progress. Each tile has a specific task that the teams must complete to continue moving on the board. The team to complete the final tile first wins the tile race. The first 3 teams to complete the tile race will receive prizes. 

 

Dates:

Begins: March 3rd at 12:00 AM GMT (Server Time)

Ends: March 17th at 12:00 AM GMT (Server Time)

 

Prize Pool:

There will be prizes for the top 3 teams to finish the tile race. If 3 teams don’t finish the board by the end of the event, the 3 furthest progressed teams will win the prizes.

 

Gold_speedrun_trophy.png?7759a 1st Place: 3B

Silver_speedrun_trophy.png?7759a 2nd Place: 2B

Bronze_speedrun_trophy.png?e31d5 3rd Place: 1B

 

Rules:

  • You must be ranked in ICE to participate.

  • You may select your partner(s) and sign up as a team.

    • Solo sign-ups or partial teams are allowed. They will be formed into full teams by the ICE event team before the event begins.

  • You may only participate on one account.

    • Drops obtained by alternate accounts will not count.

  • Sufficient proof must be submitted for all tiles requiring an event passcode.

    • Use of the Clan Events Runelite plugin is required.

  • Loot from the Bloody Chest, Supply Crates, Mystery Boxes, etc. will not count.

  • Verification screenshots must be submitted before a player's drops will count toward the Tile Race.

  • Any attempts to fabricate screenshots will result in the team being disqualified.

  • Drops obtained prior to the active tile requiring them will not be counted.

    • Example: Team 1 is currently on the Dragon pickaxe tile, they receive a Ring of the gods from Vetion before getting their Dragon pickaxe to finish that tile. If they land on the Any Wilderness Ring tile later on in the race, they will need to obtain that item again. The ring obtained previously will not count.

  • Each team will get 1 free re-roll they can use at any point during the race.

  • Any roll past the final tile will put that team on the final tile. 

    • Example: Team 1 just completed the Staff of Light tile and roll a 6. This roll would put them on the final tile.

  • Teams will only need to complete a tile one time. If a randomizer tile puts them onto a tile they’ve already completed they can re-roll until they get a different tile.

    • Example: Team 1 has just completed the Tempoross tile. They roll a 3 to the Move Back 3 tiles space. Team 1 does not have to complete the Tempoross tile again. They would stay at the Tempoross tile and re-roll until they receive a number other than 3.

#450430 Taxation with benefits

Posted by 17 on 09 January 2023 - 12:46 PM

If everyone would everyone ::empty their bank eco would also be fixed, but it's not mine nor everyone elses responsibility to fix the eco by giving up what they have. You and polton had plenty of time with a large bank to do charity work yet the eco still isn't fixed. This, if anything, feels like a petty jab at me since I've cleaned you, sorry I don't feel like a charity worker to fix the eco, but I can make suggestions like this to help.

You’re right. We raised over $3,500 for charity while we had money. And it wasn’t a jab, it’s a legitimate answer lol. When you dump bulk stacks at lowest on tp how is that helping anything? You are just hurting the item eco. Look what happened to scythes since you’ve been dumping. 3.2 from when I had down to 2.4 with you. It’s actually simple economics.. When the main shareholder dumps the company suffers.

forgot to add, not asking you to get rid of anything that you have. We know you could never give anything up. Just stating you shouldn’t be dumping bulk mid/high items in tp undercutting. And I’m not cleaned, Ill be waiting brother

#431170 I - 4.6

Posted by Sassa fras on 15 May 2022 - 08:13 AM

Good morning forums users/lurkers,

 

Yesterday I reached a big milestone in my account, I thought I’d share some info on the journey to 4.6b. Whether you’re a maxed ultimate ironman looking to pump those xp numbers up or a normal, functioning member of society repulsed at the thought of Nobankmanmode, hopefully you’ll find something interesting further down below. I owe a big thanks to my friends in the community for always giving me tips and motivation along the way, much love.

 

OHH23TI.png

oKJY5OZ.png

 

gujtSsu.png

 

Taking a quick look at the methods I used:

 

Attack/Strength/Defence – A good amount of this was from general slayer/bossing, but I camped Vyres pretty hard for the rest:

1RlfmDE.png

I wound up getting 15 blood shards in total. These melee combats were actually a lot slower than I thought, I was averaging 3m xp/hr here.  Difficulty 5/10

 

Ranged – This was my first combat 200m, doing bossing and endgame content with a blowpipe was very quick to get.  Difficulty 3/10

 

Prayer – Almost entirely from Puro-Puro. Dragon imps give large noted drops of dragon/babydragon bones:

OcYt7zl.png

I didn’t want to risk the large amounts of bones in wildy, but obviously it would have been faster if you have wildy protection. If you would prefer not to spend hours and hours running in circles, an alternative method would be to use ash sanctifier/bone crusher while doing slayer. Difficulty 6/10

 

Magic – I barraged a lot of slayer tasks at Catacombs, this was the easiest combat skill to get.  Now that we have more rune shops than ever, you’ll only be limited by your cash stack to replenish those runes. Difficulty 2/10

 

Runecrafting – For all the runecrafting memes, I thought this one would be a lot worse. Crafting soul runes with dense essence is more afk than other methods, although as UIM we can’t bank all of our essence to save up on a runecrafting SOTD. No pet btw. Difficulty 6/10

 

Construction – I returned to the game after incense burners were removed, so I was dreading getting supplies. However, there was an update that added big quantities of noted teak and mahogany planks to the CoX drop table. I was grinding out Raids items and easily got enough planks for 200m along the way. After you get the supplies, this is one of the fastest skills (20m+ xp/hr). No pet btw. Difficulty 5/10

 

Hitpoints – Passive skill, you’ll get it from the others. Difficulty 0/10

 

Agility – Very boring, ran in many, many circles. Difficulty 7/10

8eiMcnf.png

 

 

HerbloreThe hardest skill, this will be the biggest obstacle for any UIM going for 4.6b. We’re unable to use Kingdom, so that rules out a nice passive way of getting tons of noted herbs. There are a lot of different ways to tackle this, but almost all of them are painful.  Because I am an idiot who doesn’t use a looting bag or Zulrah/Hespori storage (personal preference), it was almost unbearable. I used a few different methods since my inventory was changing for various goals at the time.

 

For herbs:

  1. CoX/ToB for noted Dwarf Weed, Toadflax and Snapdragon.
  2. Herbiboar (got most of 200m hunter here) for all kinds of herbs.
  3. Callisto and Venenatis for Noted Toadflax and Snapdragon (while getting secondaries).
  4. Kurasks for Irit, Kwuarm and Cadantine seeds to farm herbs (while getting secondaries).

 

And these are where I got my secondaries from:

  1. Crushed Nests – Callisto, I was going for pet/log so I went here instead of Mole.

    I5HQ4dS.png

  2. Red Spider Eggs – Venenatis and looting from Forthos Dungeon (8 spawns).
  3. Zammy Wines – I didn’t have enough room in my inventory to save the ones from ToB, so I instead looted a couple hundred at a time from the wildy altar (4 spawns, noted).
  4. White Berries/Limpwurt Roots – Kurasks, I didn’t think growing these from seeds received from farming contracts was worth it.
  5. Eye of Newts – Paul

 

I didn’t bother with making Super Combats, because holding Torstols in my inventory on top of all these other supplies was just too cluttered, and it just seemed like more work than it was worth. Daily task shop sells them anyway, who needs herblore for that? Difficulty 11/10

 

Thieving – I grinded this out at the super donor stall two years ago, don’t really remember much about it other than lots of clicking while watching movies. Difficulty 5/10

 

Crafting – I used five main methods:

  1. Cutting gems received from CoX and ToB.
  2. Cutting gems/crafting dhide bodies from Callisto and Venenatis.
  3. Glassblowing at charter shops.
  4. Making amethyst dart tips from 200m mining grind for blowpipe.
  5. Cutting dense essence blocks during the 200m runecrafting grind.

One of the harder skills to do, it’s not even that quick after you go through all the effort of getting the supplies (like construction). I haven’t done any Gauntlet, but I think that really would have helped speed up this skill for me. Difficulty 8/10

 

Fletching – I had tons of supplies from Puro-Puro (dragon dart tips/dragon arrowtips/etc) during the 200m prayer grind. If you save up a bunch of vote points you can always just load up on rune bars to turn into dart tips. For the rest I did amethyst darts to put in my blowpipe. Obviously when you have all the supplies, this skill is very, VERY fast in wildy (rip your wrists though). Difficulty 4/10

 

Slayer – One of the hardest skills, I saved this one for last. For almost all of the 200m grind I barraged nechryaels and dust devils in Catacombs on Konar tasks... this was about 3m xp/hr. For the last 10m xp or so, I did Zuk tasks, which give 4.4m xp per task (takes about 50 minutes with suiciding + gearing + completing the run). Picked up a cool pet the run before getting 200m:

GwcfOkM.png

 

I think if I did this over, I would have started Inferno tasks much, much sooner. Difficulty 9/10

 

Hunter – I used two methods, both have their pros and cons. Red chins are faster xp than Herbiboar, but not by much. It has the benefit of not needing much inventory space, but you don’t end up using the chins at all. Also, if another player is in the best spot at ::DZ, you have to go do something else or use a less optimal spot (which means less xp). Herbiboar is less click intensive and gave noted herbs (donor perk) that I needed for 200m herb. NEITHER PET(Baby Chin and Herbi)?!?   Difficulty 7/10

 

Mining – I tried to get to as many Shooting Stars as possible for the initial xp drop of finding it first. The rest was done at Amethyst.  Difficulty 4/10

 

Smithing – This skill should pretty much be renamed “Gold Smelting at Blast Furnace”. The only barrier to this 200m is getting enough gold ore. My main sources were CoX/ToB, wilderness bosses, and buying the stock from Blast Furnace shop. Buying the gold ore was especially annoying to do, because my inventory was so cluttered I had to suicide every time I wanted to buy out the entire stock of 500.  Difficulty 8/10

 

Fishing/Cooking – Afk skills that go together, not too fast and not too slow.  Difficulty 4/10

 

Woodcutting/Firemaking – These were the initial 200ms that I grinded out for monkey back in the day. Woodcutting at redwoods was a relatively quick and afk skill, the only annoyance was how often the redwood trees would be completely bugged. Firemaking was very fast, just set your home tele to Varrock, burn a line down to the Varrock bank and repeat. Difficulty 2/10

 

Farming – The huge xp drops from higher-end trees/fruit trees/Calquats make this skill easy. Seed box is a big help for UIM, as we don’t have access to the seed vault. Difficulty 3/10

 

And here’s a final look at my skilling pets collection log during this grind to 4.6b.

Onto the next goal (new post coming soonTM), thanks for reading!

#362312 New rule feedback

Posted by UnCreative on 06 July 2020 - 01:25 PM

As a happy member of a "private clan" i just have to laugh, when i hopped into this "private" clan and hopped into their discord i was met with a roles page.  and I guarantee this is the most selected role. 

I've never seen anyone in game or on the discord trying to get anyone to play a differet RSPS, not saying it never has happened ever.
mute the kids who you know advertise other rsps.  NOT the whole community. Dont punish the clan for the misguided actions of a few


dont slap ice on the wrist for having a gaming community that has interest in other games. just going to assume that this rule was in place because you must feel this clan is leeching players away. This is a wild change, bigger than i think most chages ive seen in my 3 years.  cc advertising was always all over yell. so was REEEEEE, so is youtube advertising


When ironman og finally kicked the bucket i was reluctant to get into another clan, however joining ICE has honestly kept me playing I used to go hard for a week and then burn out for 3 months.  ICE and the community has fixed that,

I love being helpful and alora cc is too crazy for me most times

TLDR; STOP IT :P
^ short read compared to the books above me




#362290 New rule feedback

Posted by teeth check on 06 July 2020 - 10:47 AM

Ok hello, I have been summoned to this shitshow of a thread and I will respond however, before I get into it, I won't be posting anymore on this thread & will gladly continue any discussions on discord, either in private or a group, your choice. Everything I put here is my own personal opinion, I've not discussed this with anybody before posting. 

 

Before getting into specific points, I want to talk about the discord itself, which has apparently become the point of contention for the majority & more specifically, what a player will see. 

 

Upon entering the discord, this is all you can see:

 

 

06SFuoz.png

 

In the #get-role channel, you may pick the servers/games you play & want to have access to, these are our offerings (other servers are crossed out):

 

MCgR2Er.png

 

(Alora is the last option cba taking another picture)

 

Now, let's continue on the path of an Alora player, who will then react to the Alora image at the bottom to be given the correct role. This role will allow the person to see our general (which all have access to once they react to something) & alora sections, which look like this:

 

u4eZXyH.png 3HaIjpi.png

 

Now I know what some of you are thinking in regards to this general section, so let me go into more depth. The #general chat is largely filled with people joining the server and small-talk, scrolling up for the past few days I don't see a single other server being mentioned. #Media is a mix of things such as dog pics & a bunch of other random shit. #Irl is self explanatory, as other channels such as memes, music, off topic, nsfw & anime. Somebody brought up giveaways earlier, so let's take a look shall we:

 

yauBHQT.png

HsfzWW0.png

3z93q8w.png

 

The last RSPS related giveaway in this channel was on the 27th of March, and it was an Alora one. 

hSgbyhW.png

 

The Alora section doesn't require any explanations, it's purely for Alora. 

The ONLY point I'm willing to concede here is the newspaper, which includes SMALL sections for each game, looking like this (leaving out other RSPS bc censorship)

JVa2Vev.png

 

If you really think we're able to persuade / advertise from 3-4 lines of copy & pasted text, then you need to have a strong hard think about your own cognitive functions. 

 

This sums up our discord experience for those who only react to Alora. There are no @ everyone, @ here pings talking about other servers, those are done in their own sections, which a person is unable to see unless they have reacted specifically to get those perms, or are Admins. It truly disappoints me, that this can be classified as advertising, many of the accusers & people making the decisions are in our discord & others may join at any time to have a look for themselves. 

 

To look again to the original post, there's a very clear difference in what we expose a person to, in comparison to the example given here:

 

Yyn075U.png

 

'ICE used to say in the discord players had to abide with Alora rules which is no server advertising. But now that doesn’t matter because ice isn’t Alora only, which is fine. But if players can’t follow our rules, we can’t allow clans that allow other server advertising/association publicly.' - Moe . Ok, let's discuss this point, first about the rules, which as you mentioned is fine. The real thorn in this statement, is advertising/association publicly, in what way are we 'allowing other server association/advertising'? A person has to give themselves the roles in discord, to see the sections that correspond to those games. They MAY hear about it in in another channel, but be realistic here, is that really so wrong, to DISCUSS a server in passing in a clan's discord? 

 

This rule & the reasoning behind it that I've been provided seems to imply that we continually say @Everyone hey check out X RSPS it's so much better than Alora!!!@!@!@! 

 

From this point the post is gonna get weird because I'll be damned if I fuck up this goliath of an essay because I try to quote something.

 

'Either way at the end of the day if you would rather pick another server over Alora because you enjoy it more than that's on you' - 11. The rest of your post somewhat  made sense but this line does not, what's on us? Is this rule on us because some of our clan don't play this game anymore? Some clarification on what you meant would be appreciated (@ discord). 

 

@gim deathkid - are you a robot? Your response managed to convey not a single meaningful message. 

 

@hc ashley , a few points here. 

 

1. The rule states " Players are only allowed to publicly advertise clans on the world yell & forums, if the clan is directly related to Alora only."

 
This is not meant to deteriorate advertising, but only stop advertising of those "clans" it self that also promote other servers as competition.
 
A - We do not promote other servers, as I have, in my own eyes, proven sufficiently above. Either people play those servers or they do not, it is not our job to convince people. I will agree on the wording on the rule, but disagree with the statement itself & would rather see it repealed or reworked. 

 

2. ​I can understand the frustration and why some individuals are upset about this rule, but its to create a healthy in-Alora based clan competition.

 

A- Ok but, why? Why does competition have to entail requirements of being Alora & Alora-only? The premise of the idea may work if the server was larger & had more variety in clan options but in practically, it does not. 

 

3. Im sorry but "using your position of power to eliminate people from the game" are you serious? for as long as ive been playing i see no reason for any of the staff members to take such low and pitiful attempt of wanting to rid of a player base or use their powers in means to "reduce competition" between clans.

 
A - This is a mentality that is hard to fight, it happened to us when ICE had many staff members as well & is largely made from an us vs them mentality, something that both sides tried to fix but were unsuccessful in doing so, 
 
4. An additional point from me, I've heard, in passing, about your interactions with one of our ex-members in regards to him convincing you to play another server by sending links or something similar. To be clear, the ICE staff team does not condone this behaviour & it happened without our knowledge. The person in question has since been demoted (although, not for this reason alone).
 

@Code 002 , AKA stick-insect

 

1. First off I would like to say the difference between an "Open" cc and a "private" cc. An open cc ANYONE can join at ANY given time. Thus allowing a more ease of access to "other" rsps (we all know games such as COD and WOW are not a part of this *potential* new rule). Do not twist my wording to your pleasure and agenda.

 

A - So the only actual difference here is if said CC offers other games in an outside-medium such as discord? Would like some clarification (discord). 

 

2. Secondly, think of this from a "never played alora this is my first time" movie.

They would see the advertising of a friendly helpful OPEN cc.
 
They join this help clan.
 
They notice 300 players in the clan. ( :Pog:)
 
Yet only a handful actually still play the game it is based off of. In my eyes I joined the clan to be a part of the community along with the game itself. If I saw talks/giveaways/events for other servers while trying to seek HELP for alora. Why wouldn't i just not play alora and go play with the rest of the community I've joined.
 
A- So I have shown the pathway into our discord. The clan-chat on the other-hand is a bit different, in regards to 'talks/giveaways/events for other servers' - that is addressed elsewhere in this post. 
 
 
Many of us do not play Alora, that is correct. To imply we talk about other servers at all in our clan-chat is a tad bit insulting. From one of the people we've put in charge of the Alora section of our clan:

Once in a blue moon, when a higher-up /non-alora player hops in, they may say they play another server, without mentioning it. If, somehow, a name is mentioned, the player in question will immediately be warned. As an ex-staff member, that has never been a problem & never should. 

 

3. Now onto the topic of Youtubers. If my memory serves me right YouTubers are essentially paid advertisers to an extent for the longevity of the server. (I could be wrong but doubt it) This is where the difference lies within. Where as an OPEN clan has near free reign of what's going on inside of both their Discord and Ingame CC.... ( and the rest of this paragraph). 

 

A - I may not remember this as well as you, code, but from I know, we only took measures to delete discord links etc in Alora discord? I don't particularly remember banning/muting players for advertising discords with other content in it (apart from a few cases of RWT encouragement, I think). 

 

4. Also in the case of Youtubers. If they advertise non alora related videos through an Alora platform ie. Discord, forums. They have had their rights as a Youtuber REVOKED and banned from said platform. Always have always will. 

 

A - Back to my aforementioned point, is what we do, from what I have shown of our discord & what you are able to find yourself, really count as advertisement? 

 

5. Also coming back to the "using position of power to essentially get rid of the competition " is about as tinfoil as I could possibly imagine. Like how in any way shape or form does that make sense. Besides attempting to stir the pot more than it is already. THAT seems so close minded and biased I really shouldn't even be replying to tbh but I'm irked to no end.

 
A- Same response as Ashley's. The other clan in question did it incessantly when the roles were reversed. Do not take this as me excusing this behaviour, I do not condone it at all however, it is the natural outcome from how things are structed & interactions have happened over time. 
 
6. Now again, just my opinion on the matter. As it is intended to preserve the integrity of ALORA and nothing else. Any questions or concerns about MY opinion feel free to message me
 
A- Intentions? Sure, I agree. Unfortunately, in my opinion, these intentions have not correlated well to it's consequences. If you (the team, not individually), intended to preserve integrity, a single PM is all it would have taken between the staff team of the server & the clan for us to evaluate how to change things. This, to the best of my knowledge, did not happen. If there is no communication and you hit US (I say us, because really, it doesn't affect anybody else) with this out of the blue, you can understand the reactions you're seeing here & in other places. 

 

7. It's nice to see alot of old faces I haven't seen ingame in over a year start popping back up again.Welcome back we've missed you.
 
A- Missed you too, full-homo. Wouldn't exactly say I'm back though. 
 
 
@Moe just catching your post in the last few seconds so will try to be brief. 
 
1. What we were aiming for with the wording is as follows, a public clan (clan that is for Alora only) may advertise on the yell and forums. A private clan (clan that is for all Servers) may not advertise on the yell and forums due to association with other private servers. 
 
A- Same thing I said on discord, what about the PK clans (PKING ON ALORA KEKW) & those that come from other servers?
 
2. I have screenshots of people who were being sent links/messages to join other servers. Players have also left ICE due to trying to provide them with another server to play without seeking for it.
 
A- Not a single staff member was ever contacted about this happening, we can't read the PMs of our members you know? I encourage anybody with said screenshots to step forward so that we can take appropriate action (although afaik, the person I mentioned in Ashley's case may have been the only one). If you're in our discord, feel free to use the #report channel or just PM a staff member (LT+).
 
3. Actually you can provide rules on a Discord and monitor your discord. Prior to ICE being a "open, all platform gaming" discord, players had to abide with Alora rules. (which included advertising), and players would get punished if they tried such a thing.
 
A - Completely agree with you here, Moe. I'm not sure what happened to our Rules section, ICE has undergone many changes as of recent and it's hard to keep up. The rules section WILL return & we will be actively punishing said behaviour.
 
This post has ballooned to a shit-show in it's own standing, this was not my intention, I will try to sum it up with a few bullet points. 
 
  • Our discord does not promote other servers, it is out of choice, with very few exceptions, that you are exposed to such things. (A few lines once a month, in a discord, REALLY does not warrant it being classed as advertising).
  • Our clan-chat does not promote other servers.
  • Clear lack of communication between the parties.
  • Admittedly, our rule section seems to have disappeared & been forgotten about. It will return very shortly & will include statements to make sure advertising/link sending is punished, as it ought to have been. 

LASTLY, DO NOT TAKE ACTION BEFORE COMMUNICATING, this is not an in-game punishment where a player is being banned for hacking etc, a simple line of text could & most probably would have caused this entire rule & thread to be nullified.

 

Thanks for reading this fucking mess, sorry for mistakes, I won't respond here anymore, pm me on discord @ Aka#1550 (I won't send links to other servers, I promise ;) ). 




#362278 New rule feedback

Posted by God on 06 July 2020 - 09:37 AM

It's nice to see some old faces I haven't seen in over a year. Hope all has been well for everyone in this time.

I would like to express my feelings and thoughts that made me come to this decision.

First off I would like to say the difference between an "Open" cc and a "private" cc. An open cc ANYONE can join at ANY given time. Thus allowing a more ease of access to "other" rsps (we all know games such as COD and WOW are not a part of this *potential* new rule). Do not twist my wording to your pleasure and agenda.


Secondly, think of this from a "never played alora this is my first time" movie.
They would see the advertising of a friendly helpful OPEN cc.

They join this help clan.

They notice 300 players in the clan. ( :Pog:)

Yet only a handful actually still play the game it is based off of. In my eyes I joined the clan to be a part of the community along with the game itself. If I saw talks/giveaways/events for other servers while trying to seek HELP for alora. Why wouldn't i just not play alora and go play with the rest of the community I've joined.

^^This is just my opinion since at one point I was a cute noob aswell.


Now onto the topic of Youtubers. If my memory serves me right YouTubers are essentially paid advertisers to an extent for the longevity of the server. (I could be wrong but doubt it) This is where the difference lies within. Where as an OPEN clan has near free reign of what's going on inside of both their Discord and Ingame CC.
@Hellish, @KP if my memory also serves me right again. Haven't WE punished people in the past for scenarios resembling this situation? And sorry to call you two out like this but you're the 2 I respect the most. Why all of a sudden that neither of the 2 of you are with us, that this is now ONLY pointed at the clan? Again not to just point at you two in particular but rather discuss about it than just say "stfu toxic ex staff" were all grown here.

Also in the case of Youtubers. If they advertise non alora related videos through an Alora platform ie. Discord, forums. They have had their rights as a Youtuber REVOKED and banned from said platform. Always have always will.

And @Not Tauri (not pointing you out you were just the one to make me think this)
I understand your viewpoint on "competition" between clans (kinda how clans interact with each other) but when new people are torn between a competition between SERVERS when they JOINED VIA ALORA. Is scummy and realistically players are being (scalped) from one platform to being ushered onto another platform. Also having members of ICE contact other clan members AND <Keyword!!! Non affiliated players of the alora community to "come play Ikov with us we dont really play alora that much anymore"
Is indirect advertising at its finest. (Word of mouth) if you dont know it Google it ;)

Also coming back to the "using position of power to essentially get rid of the competition " is about as tinfoil as I could possibly imagine. Like how in any way shape or form does that make sense. Besides attempting to stir the pot more than it is already. THAT seems so close minded and biased I really shouldn't even be replying to tbh but I'm irked to no end.

Now again, just my opinion on the matter. As it is intended to preserve the integrity of ALORA and nothing else. Any questions or concerns about MY opinion feel free to message me (currently at work so please be patient).

And lastly I'll reiterate what I said at first.

It's nice to see alot of old faces I haven't seen ingame in over a year start popping back up again.
Welcome back we've missed you.

-Alex

Unfortunately, I guess I will reply to this one too.

 

"It's nice to see some old faces I haven't seen in over a year. Hope all has been well for everyone in this time."

 

- People are allowed to be passionate about something they haven't touched in "x" amount of time. If they take a break or even quit, That doesn't mean that they have to care less about the game. I haven't actively played in months and I'm still willing to bet I have more passion about the integrity of Alora than most. The people I've met, the friendships I've built, and the amount of fun I had on here is unmatched. I will care about what happens for quite some time as I am thankful for what Alora did for me and the people on or involved with it. This won't be the last feedback thread I post if there's more stuff I disagree with. That's what a feedback section is for. Attempting to demean their comments by instantly starting out with "Haha you guys haven't even been around shut up" is weak and I expected more.

 

 

"First off I would like to say the difference between an "Open" cc and a "private" cc. An open cc ANYONE can join at ANY given time. Thus allowing a more ease of access to "other" rsps (we all know games such as COD and WOW are not a part of this *potential* new rule). Do not twist my wording to your pleasure and agenda."

 

- Nobody is twisting words. I suggest you re-read over the rule. The rule states and I quote "A clan that is associated with other Runescape Private Servers will be considered a private clan (may not advertise on Alora)."

By this wording, "Private clans" may not advertise on Alora.

So, I will repeat, Work on your wording to whoever decided that was typed properly if that wasn't the intention of the rule.

 

 

- The storyline of "Imagine cute noob x, y, and z'd, 300 people, persuaded into x,y, and z" is irrelevant as you're speaking off 'what-if's' and made up scenarios. I don't see any rules being put into place on made up scenario that Jay eats too many cheese balls and isn't able to continue his daily life.

 

 

"Now onto the topic of Youtubers. If my memory serves me right YouTubers are essentially paid advertisers to an extent for the longevity of the server. (I could be wrong but doubt it) This is where the difference lies within. Where as an OPEN clan has near free reign of what's going on inside of both their Discord and Ingame CC."

 

- ? what.

- Every youtubers discord is OPEN, their cc's in game are OPEN, and most of which advertise rwt, other servers, and whatever else someone will pay them to advertise. You're writing off youtubers as okay when they are by far worse at enticing people to join other servers than what's going on inside the ice discord. (This is opinionated, obviously)

 

 

You then take aim at Hellish and KP with "Why all of a sudden that neither of the 2 of you are with us, that this is now ONLY pointed at the clan?"

- These two haven't been staff for a minute, I'm not sure of your definition of "all of a sudden". Neither did either of these people comment on this post, So I'm not sure why they are involved. I made this thread.

 

 

"Also in the case of Youtubers. If they advertise non alora related videos through an Alora platform ie. Discord, forums. They have had their rights as a Youtuber REVOKED and banned from said platform. Always have always will."

- Yes. I don't see the ICE discord advertising other servers via their CC or via the Alora discord/forums. Unless there's behind the scene screenshots proving of SPEFICIALLY this, This is irrelevant.

 

 

"Also having members of ICE contact other clan members AND <Keyword!!! Non affiliated players of the alora community to "come play SERVER with us we dont really play alora that much anymore"
Is indirect advertising at its finest."

- I'll butt in for this one too. You can't police what someone does on discord. That's not in-game, the official discord, or forums. Asking someone to join them playing a different game is a very normal thing for friends to do.

 

 

"Also coming back to the "using position of power to essentially get rid of the competition " is about as tinfoil as I could possibly imagine. Like how in any way shape or form does that make sense. Besides attempting to stir the pot more than it is already. THAT seems so close minded and biased I really shouldn't even be replying to tbh but I'm irked to no end."

- Retweet. Already replied to him.

 

 

"And lastly I'll reiterate what I said at first.

It's nice to see alot of old faces I haven't seen ingame in over a year start popping back up again.
Welcome back we've missed you."

 

- I'll reiterate what I said at first. Attempting to de-value opinions isn't how things get solved. Hope the discussions in staff chats are actually considering all sides to this rule instead of writing off opinions.




#362264 New rule feedback

Posted by Tauri on 06 July 2020 - 07:34 AM

I kinda want to express my feelings towards this topic, so I'm going to do it. Keep in mind, that this opinion and feedback is solely by me as a person, not by someone who belongs to any private or public clans.

 

I am extremely disappointed at the people who decided to apply the rule, because as @God stated in the sidenote, this rule was mainly targeted to one CC in Alora. If we count all the CC's in the game, how many do we have?

 

Competition is natural, but using your position of power to eliminate people from the game, who are trying to find more friends to play games with is not. I hope that this topic right here is going to have a wake-up call effect on you guys and instead of trying to target some people in the game, focus on the job you were supposed to do when applying for staff rank in the first place.




#362258 New rule feedback

Posted by God on 06 July 2020 - 06:58 AM

Hey.

 

Long time no see.


Today, I heard about a new rule being added to the Alora.EYEOH community:

d53beb871c5b07374db8543053cd8056.png


I have a few questions and comments regarding this. (Feedback, Ya know, Since this IS the feedback section.)


Question 1:
What does Alora gain from restricting the OFF-SITE "Private discords" as worded, from having other things in them?
- You're quite literally causing less advertisement for the server as a whole and trying to control what goes on in someones discord just because they also are a part of the Alora community. Forgive me if I'm wrong (lol imagine), but I'm pretty sure @Omicron pays for advertising and with this new rule you're taking away one of the best advertising methods: Word of mouth. (Google it if you're not familiar with the term)


Question 2:
Who caused this rule to be put in place?
- These type of rules are always a "Cause and effect" type scenario. The rule is the effect currently. So, What was the cause? Because from what I can see after logging in even briefly I have RSPS MERK advertising a video:
f85ca6e640e652820f1dd5fe15c8a1ce.png


His thread:
d7ce320c05268e7c9771bbbbf0f58724.png


His discord:
Now, I have been a little inactive I will admit. But, I don't think these are Alora graphics:
62fdd06573d819e9d5433bb95a243408.png


So, By definition of this new rule, I guess I'm making this a public report of him breaking the rule.


But wait, There's more!
While I'm at it, Let's take a look at some other things that break this joke of a rule.


The OFFICIAL Alora newspaper:
717538bde43a8c650b06ed236d4c275d.png


I won't link them here because it'll give you an excuse to hide this post, But almost every single one of these "Video makers" and some of the "Streamers" (top part) advertise/have videos for more than just Alora. So, I hope to see each of them punished accordingly. Aswell as every other discord, youtuber, content creator, or streamer that I can find that is breaking this new rule.


Ending notes:
Before you try to be smart with the wording of the rule: "Players are only allowed to publicly advertise ---CLANS--- on the world yell and forums, If the clan is directly related to Alora only"
If I see some stupid ass comment saying "Hurr durr they are advertising videos not clans" then ANY "Clan" that is being targetted by this can re-brand as a COMMUNITY and continue to advertise because each of these "Youtubers" have their own discords as-well that AREN'T being policed because the discords are just the youtubers "Community".

 

Side note: The "Private clan" you're targetting with this is actually an "Open cc". Whereas the one you're trying to protect is ACTUALLY classified as a "Private clan". Work on your wording.

Disclaimer:
Remember, this is a FEEDBACK section and I am giving FEEDBACK. Also, No rules were broken in the making of this post, So I hope it doesn't end up hidden. I have it saved in a notepad just incase though.

 

 

As usual, I welcome any and all comments or questions with open arms. :smile:
 

 

- Josh.

#352636 Alora PvM League

Posted by Moe on 04 May 2020 - 09:34 AM

Alora PvM League

 

rsklo7J.png


Information:

 

Welcome to Alora’s first PVM League. 

 

In the league, teams made up of up to 5 players will join together to hunt PVM drops over the span of 2 weeks. Each item, pet, or drop will be given a certain point value and at the end of the tournament, the team with the highest amount of points will be crowned the champion. Once an item, pet, etc. has been obtained by a member of a team it will be crossed out, meaning no duplicate points will be earned for that team if the drop were to be obtained again. An official Discord will be created for the event where each team will have a private channel to log their drops. Screenshots from the player’s game activity on their forum profile must be posted on the team channel indicating the time/date of each drop.

Example: https://prnt.sc/rxq0gy

 

Rules:
 

  • Players may only participate with one account. 

  • Teams may have no more than 2 members with Master+ Donator ranks and no more than 3 members with Uber+ Donator ranks.

*Disclaimer: Account donator ranks can be requested to be lowered for the duration of the tournament to meet the team rank requirements.*

  • Once sign-ups have closed and the tournament has begun, no players are able to join or swap teams.

  • Once an item has been received from one NPC it cannot be obtained again from another NPC for more points.

Example: You cannot obtain points for a Dragon Pickaxe from both KBD and Venenatis.

  • Participants must abide by the Alora Official Rules at all times. Failure to do so will result in team disqualification.

 

Prizes:

Prizes will be available on the official post, this league will be a $ prize tournament.

 

Huge thanks to Mack & Kharyrll for the balancing and organization of this event.




#350978 Abyssal Sire - respiratory system

Posted by Blackpoiint on 25 April 2020 - 01:36 PM

Note: I made this topic based on assumptions. There's no way for me to check its stats.

 

What is your suggestion?:

I think the respiratory systems which you have to kill at sire are too tanky. When watching OSRS streams / vids, I noticed that they're very easy to kill. I sometimes hit up to 10 zeroes in a row at Alora. The respiratory system should have level 80 defence with no other defence bonuses. It also should count as an abyssal demon so the slayer helm should give bonuses when killing them. Your task amount obviously won't decrease if you kill the system.

22d4e9a002aa98572a1ef79e2532d4f8.png

https://oldschool.ru...piratory_system

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes.

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

Except for a general Abyssal Sire fix, shadow barrage etc, no.

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

Killing the Abyssal Sire at the moment is kind of tedious because the boss is pretty broken at this moment, even though the general fix was accepted one year ago. If my suggestion would be accepted it would take out one of the bad parts at this boss.

Wonderful event, and happy for the winners!

Worst luck ever on my part.
