The Massive Online Adventure Game: Ruined or Revolutionized?

Has the massive online game RuneScape been made better or worse?

Has the massive online game runescape been made better or worse?

A common question being asked around the internet and within gaming forums. Well it all depends if you have played the game since it was released or only plyed a few months. It all started when the creators jagex had to make a tough decision about the forever growing problem of Real World Trading (RWT). Which is where a player who can’t earn the GP (in game money) efficiently or legit so they pay real money to gain more money in game or better items. This became a growing problem as many hard working players became angry because many other players had basically cheated the game. Then  another problem arose Credit Card Fraud where players where using credit cards to buy membership for the game which was then charged to innocent people around the world then jagex would be fined for this thus losing money. They then decided to remove the pvp section of the wilderness which as you could imagine stirred up alot of havoc in the game. Many players starting in game riots; which was gathering a subsantial amount of players and spamming causing tremendous lagg in game and crashing game worlds. But jagex could not change their minds about these solutions to the problems affecting the game. But recent updates have made Runescape a more enjoyable experience for players like new high detail which i have to say is amazing considering its a browser based java game. Then came the pvp worlds many players liked the idea but some kept ranting on about the old pvp. Then jagex made bounty worlds which was a really big improvement removing allmost all the ranting players due to its fair drop and potential system making pking (player killing) more enjoyable and profitable for members and free players. I think runescape has improved far more than i could imagine. although i am but one of the many players of this game and i ask if anyone reading this plays this game to comment on how they think jagex has improved or ruined this game.
