    Savage- Chris
    I play on the Game Arena servers mostly. I can play anytime between 5:00 and 7:00, so try to contact me in that time.

    If you would like to just talk about it/anyother game, grab Hamachi and go to the server "Chris's Game Server" without quotes of course. The password is mopar.

    My names vary along with the games, but usually it is Mopar Man, Chris, and HawkEyes.

    Other games I play:
    CS:S (sometimes, not able to right now)
    Warsow
    Flatout (network through hamachi)
    UT99
    Nox (rarely due to Dial Up)

    *UPDATE*
    No hamachi gaming for me for a while, it goofed up and I don't wanna dl it again, so just pm me if you wanna play any games over net.

    I play Runescape since 2001-2002 and my character is lvl 134. It "WAS" a good game but not since November 2007. Some updates like wilderness removal, staking removal and trading removal has killed the game drastically. Millions of players have quit this game.

    The worst thing was after the updates Jagex closed the forum because of the number of rants people posted. The closed it for sometime then so people cant post rants and give their opinion abt removing the blood and soul of RS. The mods in the forum block and hide threads now also with rants in Rants section. Players now cannot talk or discuss freely about game in forums.

    However, I still play this game regularly but it's very boring now. I would not advise new players to join it and most of the long time players like myself are quitting everyday.

    We call it Ruinedscape now.

    Wow, its that bad now? I used to play, and yes your right, removing those just ruined it all.
     
  7. Gaurav Newcomer, in training

    Yes, rs has gone down badly. :dead:
    My character name is Futre Vous, you can check me in highsores or can pvt msg me in game.
    I have not been able to quit this game coz I dont get WOW in my country, i hope that changes soon.

    Why? Can't you download the 10-day trial available? You can then unlock the full game by paying via credit card. Look here for more details on this.
    Oh, and if anyone wants to play FEAR online, feel free to PM me. :)
  9. Gaurav Newcomer, in training

    I have tried to download the trail account and even mailed WOW helpsite, but this game is not subscribed in the country where i reside, hence I cant play it.

    RS was never a good game. And somehow I dont believe you cant get WoW in India,.

    Evidence of Runescape Rant Bans:
    I have been banned from RS forum for the below given article. Not surprisingly without any reasons.

    ------------------
    Hello All,

    I present before you the "AUTOER" "RIDICOLOUS" & "HILARIOUS" customer support of Jagex Ltd.

    Question: Reason??

    Answer: All of you people who ever has gone thru any kind of Bans or appeal must be knowing what I am talking about.
    For those of you who are yet to discover this amazing "AUTOPROGRAMME" of Jagex customer support, below given is the 'live' example.

    Mute ban for 1 day:
    Offense: Breaking of Rule 10
    Rule 10:( Effective date: 27th February 2008)You must not misuse Jagex Customer Support. This includes threatening or reporting an innocent person, supplying false information and abusing Jagex staff.

    Evidence:
    futre_vous: and it was nice of hjagex to mentioned bh isnt replacement of wildy, its mini*am
    *********: cant wait for pvp updates

    Jagex Customer Support
    ----------------------------------------------------

    So, can anyone help me out here as to what the offense is about? Where do i use any abusive word or threat any staff or anyone at all?? Where do i abuse customer support??
    And guess what above that there is no option to contact customer support to highlight the "BUG" in their "AUTOREPLY" and to tell them "TO CHECK FACTS BEFORE TAKING ANY ACTION".

    Oh ! no there is no way at all, whatever action is taken by the AUTO custom support response is the last. Yep ! just like a mark in stone..wont go away no matter what you do.

    I tried to contact customer support through REPORT BUG - but all I get back is an auto response mentioning they cant help it.

    Laughable scenario if your not on the end of this MISTAKE. But hey, the hilarity doesnt stop here..even when my mute gets removed in game after 24 hours, my forum mute was still on for 4 more hours. Oh, no dont you think about contacting anyone..just coz its simple - THERE IS NO WAY !

    Most probably my thread will get blocked and hidden...like it has happened tons of times before also.
    Last but not the least I was reported by a game MOD, how do i know it? Coz he was there and told me to stop talking. I cant put his name here coz of forum rules but I definately know now customer support is a JOKE !

    And i thought Jagex wanted to remove autoers out of the Game, why not start with CUSTOMER SUPPORT FIRST JAGEX !! You need a "HUMAN" there who can actually check "FACTS" and reply sensibly. If thats too much to ask then why the DRAMA of custommer support in the first place.

    This is not the first time it has happened with me nor it is the last but oh well, I am writing it here coz after the recent updates i dont feel like logging in the game and boring myself to death, I'd rather tell you people something here.

    Thanks and Gl to all true Gamers out dere'
