running from wars?

[persie]

hey, im persie, ive recently returned to runescape after a 1 year stop. i used to play when wilderness and bounty hunter was around and a little of pvp.i quit because i was getting bored and had other games and hobbies to play. I've now come back into pure clans and all i see is running into clan wars, running into bh, running... when i was in clans back then , running WAS AGAINST THE RULES. you could get suspended or even BOOTED if you ran from any kind of war. whether it be a full out or an unofficial pk trip. I have come back and seen logging, running and more NH from all if not most clans. I dont know if this topic can change anything but im hoping some clans take back the rule of no running from a war.

post your comments and opinions

(09:01:30) <@[E]Jared> IF YOUR STILL IN FIGHT

(09:01:33) <@[E]Jared> GO BEHIND ALTAR AND LOG OUT

 

Yeah things are very differnent, and a main reason is because there are so many safezones, I mean anywhere you fight is surrounded by safezones..Except all the way at westgate..Which I don't know why we don't fight there knowing the majorty of Pure clan's run ins were past lvl 40... But now they are under lvl 25..See look, If you have a run in at altar they can run to sc, they can run to clan wars, they can run to bh....If you have a run in at hillz they can run single, they can run to clan wars, they can run all the way down to fog, if you have a run in at chaos dwarves, they can run to mossies ( single ) they can run to the back bh stairs ( Safe / Single ), they can run to Bh, they can run to clanwars.

 

I Do infact remember running and logging against the rules, but every clan has about 20-30 people getting away per fight.....I mean if its a fair fight why are you running...If its crashed I understand, or if it was like a 40 vs 90..

ive seen ending numbers after a fight something like this

clan 1 ending : 40

clan 2 ending 30 in bh

...pretty poor.

I do it all the time lol.

 

Quicker to run to bank and return, than to die, games neck up etc.

 

Not sure about for f2p, but p2p i always have a brew to back out of fights if there still competitive.

 

Not for money reasons, Its simply a faster way to return for me, since most fights are between bh -> clw, and dwarves.

 

(Pk run ins, not wars).

Clans nowadays are all about retaining numbers so they can fight other clans. They'd rather have people log/run to get a nice remass of only losing maybe 1 person, then put up a good fight and lose 10 people.

 

I'm not sure which side is right though.

[persie]

maybe thats it, maybe we need a new location for wars. sometimes i see fights getting messed up because of the safe spot and teams can pile a couple of the other team and then run straight back into the safe spots.

you to me sound like a pixel hugger.

the mains own most of the upper wild, if pures were to go up there we'd get wrecked. But yeah I remember when running/looting were illegal to do in a run in, and if you were caught doing it you were booted. I don't know what's happened now.

[Kaleb]

Why does it matter?

[0BR]

I log from ROT when they rush us in P2P

[persie]

maybe we dont have to go to a different location , maybe clans need to tighten up and forget about pixels at waring times.

[Honey]

You to me sound like an f2p trial version newfag.

 

It returns quicker. It wins wars quicker. So that is why.

[Derrick]

I remeber those days was fun back then but now its ****

[Blackmen]

i dont care.

[WillT]

Meh waring is a lot more tactical people don't want to lose people.

[Xtarantulax1]

I've been waiting for you for such a long time, clanning today is really pathetic yet no one seems to care.

Why lose 10 people when you can lose 1?

[Resist]

it's not pking u idiots, clans now go to bh to fight for ranks

[Pal]

soz resist we're all idiots

allowed*

I liked it when run-ins were deep by the members gate/greater demons/spider hill etc and everyone just piled until the last man. Fights lasted longer and there was more loot to pass around. Although I do see how it has come to be the way it is. If you notice clanwars fights, once it gets to a certain difference in numbers the winning clan just doesn't lose any more people. That's where "pushing" really comes into play nowadays.

 

 

Can't say I really mind though, if you've won you won, and no point in killing a clans opts and not having any more competition afterwards

[vlooieneuker]

rip gds pking.

 

as for what honey said i think that only works in pvp worlds, bh i think its better to just die and return from edg with full praypoints (f2p)

[Asher]

Why lose 10 people when you can lose 1?

 

They should have supplies to return :banana: :banana:
