Making JebScape, an upcoming modding platform for making and playing custom content in OSRS. Opinions are my own and don’t represent the views of any employer.
@heboxjongeRS The real problem are permanent hiscores. What’s the point in competing if you can’t gain ranks anymore?
Jagex should really do a permanent KotS mode where you can reset accounts to try again, preserving the best records as you go.
@ApodacaHaracio@fawfulfan@AgileJebrim We all signed a contract agreeing to abide by these zoning rules and other city ordinances. This is just upholding that contract. Don’t like the rules somewhere? Don’t buy property there. We even paid extra for the PERK of zoning, but this clearly goes over your head.
@fawfulfan@AgileJebrim You get much more of a monopoly of crappy mixed density communities everywhere. Both conservative exurbanites and liberal city dwellers hate it. You only get affordability by creating undesirable communities that neither side likes.
@fawfulfan@AgileJebrim I was poor once upon a time. You don’t know anything about me.
The feds or state banning zoning actually reduces competition and eliminates the free market and choice offered by many small municipalities.
@fawfulfan@AgileJebrim When analyzed this way, you actually see the reverse occur: the rich exurbs subsidizes the poor inner city.
Blocking me won’t hide this truth from your followers.
@fawfulfan@AgileJebrim When there are more taxpayers per acre, you will obviously have greater total tax collections per acre. That’s irrelevant though. You need to be looking at PER HOUSEHOLD tax collections and PER HOUSEHOLD city expenditures.
@TheWaveRunnner@AgileJebrim@mightylzrdking Again, the problem was the rain and an insufficiently large reservoir, not downstream concrete. In fact, low density with a bunch of grass has far greater permeability. You might argue that Spring, TX should not exist downstream of the reservoir, but that’s silly.
@TheoryWiseOS@urinator73 Have you tried Fossil Island or Werewolf course yet? These are medium active training methods offering 70k+ rates. There’s so much existing great content out there that people have just ignored because they never hear about others using it.
@urinator73@TheoryWiseOS Being completely hands off degrades the quality of the game. That doesn’t mean all updates are great updates or that some updates aren’t more destructive to the health of the game than other updates. But we absolutely do need to regularly update the game if the game is to thrive.
@urinator73@TheoryWiseOS Nostalgia alone was insufficient to maintain the population. RSC too was proof of this, where it only had a couple hundred players, most of whom were bots anyways due to lack of Jagex support.
