Short and to the point

The incredible and continuous lack of support or any sort of fixes, while a minor issue at first, becomes more and more exacerbated to the point where it becomes unbearable the longer you play this server.

The community is phenomenal. A mix of old and new. But the longer you stay the more you are repulsed.

I must take my leave.... there simply isn't any motivation for me except more broken or half coded content.

If I am offered to develop the server I will most definitely come back to do so. I will continue to lurk on the forums and update my bug thread.

Until we meet again. Goodbye Friends!.

P.S. To forever end the community defending PLurals laziness.. I will do some code of the few things that shouldave been hotfixes a long time ago. I will also post the time it took me using files from another 317 server source. Just to serve as an example and argument point.

1. Unequipable or Statless Armor

Code:

<itemDefinition>

    <id>2665</id>

    <name>Saradomin full</name>

    <examine>Rune full helmet in the colours of Saradomin.</examine>

    <equipmentType>HAT</equipmentType>

    <noted>false</noted>

    <noteable>true</noteable>

    <stackable>false</stackable>

    <parentId>-1</parentId>

    <notedId>2666</notedId>

    <members>false</members>

    <specialStorePrice>0</specialStorePrice>

    <generalStorePrice>0</generalStorePrice>

    <highAlcValue>0</highAlcValue>

    <lowAlcValue>0</lowAlcValue>

    <bonus>

      <int>0</int>

      <int>0</int>

      <int>0</int>

      <int>-6</int>

      <int>-2</int>

      <int>30</int>

      <int>32</int>

      <int>27</int>

      <int>-1</int>

      <int>30</int>

      <int>0</int>

      <int>0</int>

    </bonus>

  </itemDefinition>

Time invested 45 seconds. (With looking up the stats on an archived runescape wiki circa 2005-2007)

2. Untradeable Items

Code:

public int[] untradableItems = {Id, Id};

public boolean checkItem(int id) {

for(int i = 0; i < untradableItems.length; i ++) {

if(untradableItems[i] == id) {

return true;

 }

}

return false

}

Coded from 0 this is already coded so all he needs to do is remove the id.
So from scratch maybe 1 min. Since already coded 15secs.

Trading sticks, Buttplugs whatever. Removing them.

Example drop table I made for slayer monster

Code:

<list>

  <dropController>

    <npcIds>

      <int>2600</int>

      <int>2601</int>

      <int>2602</int>

      <int>2603</int>

    </npcIds>

    <drops>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>444</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>30</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>6529</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>15</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>6529</id>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>15</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>-1</id>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1931</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>30</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1755</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>30</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>946</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>30</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>3732</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>30</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1623</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>5</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1621</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>5</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1619</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>5</weight>

      </npcDrop>

      <npcDrop>

        <id>1617</id>

        <count>1</count>

        <weight>5</weight>

      </npcDrop>

    </drops>

  </dropController>

</list>

Anyways using almost any coding API to remove anything from many entries takes 10 seconds. You find all of the entries, and remove all. Bam 10seconds no trading sticks in drop table.

To leave I leave you a quote from Gandalf (because he rocks):

Quote:“I will not say, do not weep, for not all tears are an evil.”

aw man, sad to see you go

**Kornslipkn** · 10-03-2013 02:24 AM

I'm not defending Plural's laziness, but he's offering you a free game for which he pays from his own pocket to keep up and running...

Also don't forget that he's in college now and he can't afford to screw it up, that's why he may seem less active.

Anyways, sad to see you leave, hope to see you around once in a while at least...

Even so, these are codes that took Jen less than 2 minutes....
Not saying I'm not grateful for the free game and all, but more effort into the server would be nice.

I offer my services for free. It costs plural merely the time to allow me to access it. I could code the majority of the gruntwork so botting4days can use his time for major systems.

Also I know multiple people who would start donating (and eagerly voting) for the server, if the server had regular updates and a more serious presence on the server.

I will pop in to the forums every now and then. Smile

You guys are what makes this server even exist.

Alright, you can code if you want.
I will arrange everything later on as it is very late again.

Alright. The best way would be through skype as it is always on.

My skype username is: Argrista

Until then pardon me if I won't be holding my breath.
