Topic: Kongregate / Kreds Discussion

1/5 for no mute button doesn’t make much sense either, so I don’t really care what confuses you Carados.

Topic: Kongregate / Kreds Discussion

[quote] I am against Kreds. You can’t fully enjoy 98% of the sites without paying. Now, this great site, with innovative ideas and a good community, has commited selfdestruct by adding itself to the mass. I’m very, very disappointed.[/quote]
This is actually just the explosion. The self-destruct started when they added Runescape.

[quote] Boo to Kreds. No one should be able to buy advantages in games. That’s ridiculous. The tip system is awesome. The ‘virtual items’ is horrible. You’re paying for pixels. Pretty much the definition of inane.[/quote]

You just said that about 1-2 million kids and moms are insane. *cough*Neopets*cough*

Anyway, I can’t say this surprises me. I mean, I kinda feel like they were trying to do a little smoke and mirror trick, knowing how volatile the forum community is. They’re like YOU CAN TIP DEVS! YAY DEVS! WE LOVE DEVS! WEEEE! (oh, and also, you can buy cards too. And virtual things to give you an advantage. Yay rich noobs!).

Another thing. How the hell have they had time to implent micro-transactions, yet they haven’t had the time to redo the forums and make a better way to quote (like 500 posts and I have not figured out how to quote.)?

Oh well, It is slighty entertaining watching this site eat itself. Maybe Greg could find a QA spot at Runic Games or something after this is all over.

Topic: Kongregate / "loot challenges"

I just feel like this is another turn that I don’t like. First they put Runescape on the site (and even made a special deal with Jagex), and now they’re being a little raffle puppet for Fallout 3. Is there a financial problem there not telling use about, or are they just becoming more about money and less about games? They could’ve at least picked a better game.

Topic: Kongregate / Are "tickets" to become regular on Kongregate?

You have got to be kidding me. Runescape is bad enough, but if Kong is having a raffle to win Fallout 3, I think there’s something going on. Is Kong having financial issues or something? Or do they really want to be faceless corporation?

Topic: Games / should wow be on kongregate?

If we don’t have to pay for it sure. Get right on that. I think that monthly prize will cover the development costs of converting it into flash.

Get on that. You’d be a pretty popular user.

[/sarcasm]

I think there might be about as many WoW haters as Runescape haters.

Topic: Games / why runescape shouldn't be here!

There is one lone logical reason why Runescape should be removed (well, at least taken off the Hot New Games list). Because of Runescape being on the front page, that means that a new game with a higher rating is not. This means that that game is recieving less plays because it’s not on the front page (might I add that most games that aren’t hidden on the site have a higher rating than runescape? If it was a normal game, it wouldn’t be visible on the site except if you searched for it). Because the new game is not on the front page, it recieves less plays, and therefore, less votes. So then it does not make it into the top weekly games, because a lot of people haven’t played it and voted fairly on it (because, frankly, I doubt I’m the only one that 1-star spams all the latest games for some quick points).

So basically, Runescape is stealing money from developers that can make better games. And that is why is should be taken off the front page.

Edit: I just wasted 5 minutes of my life reading through the “I hate Jabor” thread that was posted on the second page. Thanks a lot Jabor!

Topic: Kongregate / Kongregate - The Future

It’s not going to last too much longer if they keep putting crap games like Runescape up. I still can’t believe they haven’t at least got it off the Hot New Games list.

Topic: Kongregate / That's *not* Runescape

If only we had requested more games…

So, if we all request that it be taken off, does that mean that it’ll be taken off? It makes sense to me.

Topic: Games / A reasonable topic on runescape for anyone who doesnt just want to flame

I still don’t know what the hell they were thinking. I thought they lurked enough to know that a large voting population hated Runescape withe a vengence. And that there would be a huge flame war between mature haters and immature lovers.

Never, have I met a mature runescape lover. However, there are a lot of immature haters. It’s that “fad” thing.

^ No, a lot of random people don’t like it. Hence the 2 and a half star rating.

Topic: Games / You have GOT to be kidding me.

I must remember to request more games. The lack of requests except by noobish 10 year olds is why we have this problem. They’re just treating this as another marketplace. The Runescape chat is probably going to be flooded with *’s and/or 1337

If Rs is in any way causing a strain on the Kong servers, it should be removed. I’m sure there’s some deal worked out, but when the #1 requested game has 2+1/2 stars, there’s a problem.

And to anyone who says that Rs deserves a higher rating, I say that there are more deserving games. Content does not a game make, quality the one it is.

Yoda I am. A disturbance in the force I sense. Kong’s lack of WIN is disturbing.

If I die, I want you to have my orange juice.

(Mixing quotes is so much fun!)

Edit: Yes Carados, I can see it now:

Aide: Mr. President Madagascar, Runescape was posted on Kong!

President: Shut, down, everything.

Aide: What? I don’t think it’s necces-

President: EVERYTHING!

Topic: Kongregate / Kongregate vs Newgrounds

After trying out Newgrounds again, I have to say kong.

Yes, Newgrounds has an audio portal, which is awesome, but their moderation team is too mature. I really despise mods who just simply ban without asking any questions. They remind me of the principal off of The Breakfast Club I submitted a song that another user said I could submit, and I was banned. I didn’t even know I was banned until I tried to upload another song a week later. When I asked if I could get unbanned because I not only didn’t know that PoM was part of the “copyrighted loops” category, but I was also lied to by another member. They just replied “meh, make an alt.”

Now I wish Kong had an audio portal. I don’t want to go back to that community. Although we may get something much worse coming with the arival of Runescape.

(From PURSUIT http://www.godlimations.com/games.html) Diala: I managed to pull the toilet lid off of my toilet! Jason: That’s…that’s great! Eh, would you mind keeping your stories to yourself?

That always makes me laugh xD

Be sure to play TRAPPED, it’s on Kong too.

Futurama. There’s so many good jokes, yet there’s an underlying serious tone to the show (Jurassic Bark even made me cry [I’m a dog person] T_T)

Topic: Games / Runescape Haters

I hope Jagex payed Kong a whole hell of a lot of money, or else they must be kicking themselves right now for trying to make server space for a game that has a 2 and a half star rating. If I remember right that’s the same rating as The Andromeda Stain. Which is quite funny.

Oh, and damjin, not everyone that hates runscape was high level. The farthest I’ve gotten is to level 15, and that was just to see if the game would get any better. Not only does Runescape have no sense of direction, but it has horrible graphics and a immature community to boot. Sure there’s a heck of a lot of content, but I don’t really care to experience any of it. Quality, not quantity.

There are a lot of games deserving of a higher rating (TRAPPED, Monster Basement [seriously, it needs to be higher], and Wonderboy Legends). Runescape is not one of them.

Topic: Kongregate / runescape on kong!?!??!

FuzzyPanda has a huge point, the game at least needs to be taken off the “Hot New Game” list, because the only reason it is hot is because of all the flaming it’s received.

Congrats FuzzyPanda, I thought you’d be having a seizure right about now. The amount of FAIL that Rs is generating must be terrifying to one so attuned to the force of the internet.

Ah, mixing Star Wars and the internet is just so fun.

Topic: Kongregate / The new kongregate?

When I saw this topic, I thought it was going to be a rant about how putting Runescape up here is going to be a turning point in Kong’s history, for better or worse.

I severely underestimate the depth of thread starters. I’m so ashamed.

Oh thank god. No badges for Rs. That was the best possible outcome at this point.
