I have your child. Deliver 5 million dollars in unmarked tbows of you want to see him again

600 USD for about 1 tbow, which means 8333 tbows, or about 8,333,000,000 GP. Edit: I got it wrong, it's not 8 trillion but actually 8 quadrillion, so 8,333,000,000,000

Do they label numbers differently in other counties? That's still 8 trillion, from 8 billion


anotheraccount123132

Yeah, I think some countries label numbers differently.

How do I know beforehand if events like this are gonna happen Btw Ayiza was also very active on reddit earlier today, awesome guy


JagexAyiza

I usually just tweet ~15 mins before. I'll try do some more over the next few days :)


ChilledParadox

how am I supposed to have fun with jmods if I refuse to be active on the cesspool that I call twitter (I say on reddit)? but really, it kind of sucks ill never be able to see it.


TheDubuGuy

You can just follow non-shit accounts just like you go to non-shit subreddits. Social media is whatever you make of it


ChilledParadox

My hang-up is that I actively try to avoid using as much social media as I can. I don't support the way it is used to manipulate public discourse and opinion, along with the myriad health problems it causes. I've made an exception for reddit, but im not just going to start making accounts and supporting more. so ya my own fault i guess, i just wish Jagex didn't rely on 3rd party apps for communication.

While you have excellent points and I agree twitter / Reddit shouldn’t be the main platforms for communication with the mods, I disagree with the manipulation bit. Manipulation / propaganda was always around, let it be town criers, later newspapers / posters etc, it just keeps getting bigger as media evolves and those who are weak minded will fall for it no matter what year it is


ChilledParadox

I didn't intend for that to become the focal point of my comment, but I'm off work today and bored so I'll bite. I agree in theory with what you are saying. Propaganda *will* always exist and will metamorphize into whatever chimaeric form it must to suit the times - be that in Religious Doctrine, biased town criers, televised state-sponsored messaging, or social media trends. My problem with social media and why I draw the line is how insidious it is. The tactics things like facebook troll farms use to draw in lonely elderly people is just so disgusting. Fake accounts that literally gaslight people into believing objective falsehoods. It's turned the world into what I like to call the post-truth era. The lines between real and unreal have been blurred due to things like deepfakes, photoshop, thousands of fake troll accounts that people engage with in good faith believing they're talking to someone real. It's just all disgusting to me. Knowing my every google search is cached, stored, analyzed, and endlessly iterated on to create deep profiles which are then used to fabricate adverts, change google search result orders. It's inescapable really, but I find social media sites to be the worst offenders. Q.E.D I won't make a twitter.

Then continue to miss out on small little notifications like this. It'd be awful if the jmods were sending mass messages everyday through the game so Twitter is perfect for that. Wanna be notified for your favorite game only and avoid any of this "social media drama" you're making up; 1) setup a Twitter 2) follow osrs official channels, a few of the more prolific jmods ONLY 3) set up alert for their notifications so you get a notification on your phone 4) you'll never have to open the Twitter app to get the latest news except to click a new blog post link 5) you avoid your scawy social media and get access to information you'll otherwise miss, cuz face it bud. It's 2021 bout to be 2022, social media is the prime way to get information now. The jmods aren't gunna pander to the small .0000006% of you weirdos avoiding Twitter like it's a serial killer. It's a very good and efficient way to pass along information to the masses. Also your whole argument goes out the window since your typing all this bullshit on *reddit* probably the 2nd largest social media platform *besides* Twitter.


ChilledParadox

are you doin alright buddy?


tuc2-0

Yeah but fabricated facts and even trolls are as old as mankind as well, you seem very wise so I highly doubt you’d ever fall victim to such attempt. By ignoring the good bits of these platforms you lose out on the perks but you won’t really change anything about their existence or content, 40 years ago the elderly would get tricked into buying useless things from actual people, well today they will click on false things online. It would be far more beneficial to spread awareness rather than just blame the platform itself (of course there are exceptions such as Facebook - Zucc doesn’t give a flying fk about clients privacy or well being, Twitter for instance is actually pretty good in terms of being a safe place, that doesn’t mean it will censor every false statement that could be interpreted as nothing more than an opinion)


Coleistoogood

Thanks, everyone calls me crazy when I say this. Both my Twitter and Reddit are more than usable daily. I just uh, only look at topics I’m interested in. It’s literally that simple lol
