Ay im cwc tyvm forr making these videos exposing that fker. We go wayyy back as enimies. I cannot easily explain all the shitty things ive seen him do, but its been happening since at least 2009 or so... Balls been in jagexs court for a while, and hardly anythings been done. Cw is legit taking its last breaths. Really sad to see the transition from the greatest tier of PVP on any version of RuneScape to what it is now - a toxic barren wasteland. I thought games were supposed to be fun? -dell
I think the biggest reason why a castle wars is on a higher level than any other PVP scenario in the game is because it's more skill based than typical PVP situations and is less reliant on RNG but the list goes on and on
If you bring true max mage (3rd age ammy) and constantly catch freezes on them..they will go Hella out of their way to try and get your ip to none stop ddos you..found this out about a year ago for myself...haven't been back
Tbh this is really sad. Like he mentioned they gain nothing in game from this other than to feel good having an edge on other players. No job, no education, no ambition, no aspirations to get married or have kids. Such a sad existence if you really think about it
That’s kinda what happens when the economy becomes idealized into a personal wallet for a lot of people, I wouldn’t doubt if there’s some services these clans provide either for coin or real cash.
@@bikermark666 I got both coin and cash. What services we talking about? Car wash? Body massage? I need this tree out back trimmed down, it's gonna be touching my house soon. Any clans offer that service?
@@user-xk6hr7bc5v lol just a joke man. Though it's true, saying "at least I haven't spent a decade being an annoying vindictive jerk on RuneScape as my full-time job" isn't saying shit haha.
Some solutions. 1-No players under level 50 can join a Castlewars game. 2-Players must have at least ten quests completed to join a Castlewars game. 3-Put an outline around barricades that shows what team it belongs to. 4-AFK players either by not moving or not engaging with players and mechanics get kicked after thirty seconds and replaced by a player waiting in the team's lobby. 5-Teams have to designate who is allowed to remove their flag from their castle. 6-Players that get kicked from a game three times will have a forty eight hours ban from joining a team.
As someone who plays a lot of cwars on my pure, the solution a lot of other pures have come up with would be the same restrictions as LMS along with the level and gear balancing. Make everyone the same level and give them specific gear setup choices. Everyone is on even terms like that. Random team shuffling would also heavily reduce the team stacking. This stuff is discussed all the time, there are a lot of players who want to play cwars, but these clans and griefers just make it impossible. That’s why not only is half your team afk, it’s not just people wasting space, but because there is no fun in playing. Above the ladder will be like 6-8 people, and within them are legit players but they’re viewing it as a grind to get the tickets because it’s not a fun game for them to play.
@@biscuitdingus Here's the thing, I considered level and gear balancing but they don't really matter when you have people cheating. You could have the best balanced minigame in the history of MMORPGs but if they get ruined by cheaters, it really doesn't matter. But I have to disagree on the random team shuffling for the reason that people go into one portal or the other because they want to be on that team because blue represents Saradomin and Red Zamorak. People are going to get pissed if they are put on the team they absolutely don't want to be on. And honestly, I don't see clans being an issue for the game, it's only when it's a clan of hackers/cheaters that it actually is an issue. Take my suggestions to fix the game to eliminate or at least severely hamper hackers/cheaters and you'll have a much more fun game people will play to play and not just for the tickets. Once the hackers/cheaters thing is fixed, we can focus on making improvements to the gameplay loop itself to make it more fun. I have a few ideas for that too. Basically, instance the Castle Wars minigame and having multiple games going at once and make sure every team represents one of the gods. Saradomin, Zamorak, Zaros, Bandos, Armadyl and Guthix by giving players not only that god's color as the team color but the flag has that god's symbol and their armor is designed to be for followers of that god. After all, not everyone follows either Saradomin or Zamorak. But since Guthixians are followers of the god of balance, we could be taken as needed to fill other teams so that the numbers remain balanced. This of course would require the Castle Wars area to be enlarged to accommodate more portals which is the perfect opportunity to split the lobby into two sections: Individuals and Clans. The clans section would have an NPC to challenge a specific clan and a portal for clans that don't care what clan they face off against, pitting them against random clans. Anyways, that's just off the top of my head.
Man , I wasn't angry after watching this. I just felt fucking terrible for the guy... Imagine having 1 shot at life and this is how you spend it. The man needs help...
Right. How does noone get bored of cheating in a pointless game everyday. That’s like being proud of beating a kindergartener in basketball. His life has to be insanely boring.
@Enthusiastic Aizawa intentionally sabotaging people's fun for 15 hours a day for many years is the sign that they need professional help. How would you feel if someone you loved did that?
@@aaronbackus4548 The thing is these ppl just like to cheat and Jagex should do something about it. But yeah they just keep doing this stuff constantly nothing you can really do about it then just ban them from the game.
Pff, totaliarian, this nutcase says. If you purposefully screw with a game in overwatch to make people miserable by stacking teams with afk alts, you're going to get banned.
Nice video! Fairly spot on. Sadly I think it finds many of us in the CW community too late. Something to add - An additional method of sabotaging our antagonist used is/was methods of preventing CWers from logging in entirely. DDoSing was the method a few years back. Nowadays is the spam-login method, most commonly seen used on Woox's account. Our antagonist pays these spam-logging services to prevent CWers from playing runescape altogether. It still happens to this day.
Question: How does this guy actually earn money? How can he sabotage the game all day long, pay for these things, have no life. Does he live with his parents, aren't they through with him? Does he live on benefit? How tf can you live like that?
When I was 11 I downloaded some mods for halo2 and thought it was fun for a little bit to always get headshots with snipers. And then I realized it was stupid and I wasn’t actually winning on my own. And I was 11. Let me remind you, I came to this conclusion on my own when I was 11. These people are sociopaths.
Takes the fun out of it. It's funny cause you actually lose skill. If you want to get better at something. Put yourself at a disadvantage and then take away that disadvantage.
I used to play 5-6 years ago and I know exactly who you’re talking about, he’s from Australia like me so he has shocking ping but uses plugins that drop/autoburn barricades so they can’t be touched. He’s so toxic and has ruined the fun for everyone. The guy has no social life at all and literally makes a day out of making others miserable
He probably never grew up. He probably is a 40 year old man who fell into a coma at the age of 14 for 18 years and then suddenly woke up to playing the game and started ruining everyone's fun
I mean I played from classic - 08 and I just remember in like 06-08 castle wars was the place to go to have a great time. It was one of the most fun and social aspects of the game. Really a shame to see this happening
Theres no way someones literally wasting their life sabotaging castle wars. Like video games are kind of a waste in generally but this dude might as well be sitting drooling all day.
why don't they just randomize the teams and make some kind of activity bar similar to pest control for barricades. if you haven't done enough damage or tried to score recently then can't place more than 2 barricades or something per player
Jagex just needs to spend some extra time and monitor when this stuff happens, and once they figure out the players that are doing this they need to just ban them from castle wars only. They could do this in a matter of days.
One thing that could help is to put a level minimum on the official worlds. Make it minimum combat 70 to join. Below that it people would probably not be very useful to the team anyways and it would make it a way harder to stack teams / the accounts aren't throwaway anymore if they get banned. At the same time keep it uncapped for unofficial worlds for the lower combat clans that want to play or maybe make a capped and an uncapped official world.
It baffles me that they don't take more action. If I ever had a job at jagex I would be a ban hammer, but do it within bounds. Monitor the clans that has said reputation, monitor games and make lists. Not ban instantly, but do ban waves. Gotta gather as many as possible to do so before they catch on and change the ways in which they throw. I know banning accounts is bad, but they should implement account bans for Mini Games if thats too far. Violating in certain degrees could warrant a 24h ban with different tiers up to perma ban. The important part is to not just insta ban, but build cases to see if it's enough to perma ban from the mini games. Report functions wouldn't function cause we see it abused in every game, so this would require the community mods (i think there is something like this) is appointed to the right people, who then mark down people. These have to be trusted, and abuse of this will have severe consequences. They already work in the pve element, and a guy I played with was. The same can go for gold sales. Is it not their best interest to have a anti-cheat/grief/black market team? Their losing money and losing consumers based on the actions these players are taking, and their gaining. The investors must be blind to not have seen this, and fund a bit more into the game to make this happen. Their already making a bunch, so whats throwing 10% of the interest back into the game to properly make it flourish? Runescape is among the most loved and most nostalgic games out there. And with the recent launch on steam, they have the potential to grow their player base even further. They can turn those 10% into something more if numbers are all they care for, so why just sit and take the L? :(
I used to help and had a high rank in a clan that ran soul wars release back in old runescape. We had the biggest soul wars clan in runescape and our games were being spoiled by max main accounts. I can't remember the max main account clan name. But I ran my clan under V0p the leader Miley Cyruus. We ran that clan to get players zeals for their accounts. We used to infiltrate their clan with mains to get the call which side they joined zammy or Sara. They did moves before the game started to switch sides. They eventually banned our mains. We still ran our clan and got 95 percent calls right to maximize the amount of zeal you can get an hour (9 zeal). How? I had no main but called the games 98 percent right calls running the chat. Because I ran this clan with my friend Miley Cyruus who also was an eop member (we were pures coming from world 32 making soul wars f2p accounts). Well you contact me I'll tell you the entire story of the soul wars clan back in the day. :)
If that kid would have worked 15 hrs a day at 15 bucks an hour for the past 10 years he would have made 821 grand. And instead he has no money, and is probably very heavy.
He would eventually stop if either OSRS pulls the plug by shutting down the game or he's unable to keep a roof over his head when his parents die and unable to pay the bills, sooner or later the repo man will show up and evict his ass.
@@tehmodestmouse6275 When you watch the video you will hear that the user plays for 15 hours a day griefing people. I'm not sure they tax handicapped people like the cwars griefer obviously is. You seem to be as well, but for your pretty little head I'll round down to 600k.
It's nice that you bring the CWs problems to light and get more eyes on the sabo topic. Ideally in your next video you talk about the positives of the community. Your video gives off the impression that there are no clans/teams/people combating the sabo's on a daily basis. The games are pretty balanced because once one team sabos - both teams sabo. At that point neither team is at an advantage over the other. DNA Master Undefeated W34 CWs baby.
This hurts my heart. I was active when castle wars was formed and it was really just a fantastically fun time. It was easy to spend countless hours there, making friends and just enjoying something different than the normal RS grind. I hate to see that it has been ruined for no reason. Truly hate to see where runescape has come.
He's used the energy he could have used to assess himself to make people miserable on purpose. There's nothing to sympathise with, except this sad bastard's mother who had to put up with him. Imagine how hard he'd throw a fit if his food wasn't cut into perfect pieces, or if it was new
It’s pretty sad, when I picked up OSRS again I was looking forward to playing this mini-game again and after 2 games of sabotage I never went back to Cwars
I made a video on this as well, it’s quite messed up and made suggestions on this. Great job resurfacing this because I knew something was off about this mini game
I swear! I’ve been contemplating playing again but it just feels like a chore. It’s all based on efficiency and order of completion. Miss that feeling of aimlessly walking around with no direction
Yep I gave up on even trying to have fun at CW forever ago. It’s sad man, it was where I went on my very first day of membership in 2005. Sometimes I’d like to go enjoy a competitive nostalgia trip but it’s not competitive, it’s just afk level 3’s and saboteurs :/
I don't understand what's to gain with sabotaging soul wars when you only have a 50% chance of being on the winning team. Surely that's equivalent odds to just playing the game normally?
It’s actually easy to implement relevant updates to the minigame. Each problem you addressed can be definitely fixed. Jagex just needs to address this. But they will only give priority to this if this is a big enough of a concern to the community as a whole.
Geez, could you imagine hating castle wars and just ruining their fun in a game that has literally no benefits for winning or losing (like gold). Dude needs a better hobby.
Imagine doing this when you can literally do anything else with your time. I'm not even mad, I'm impressed and hoping to see what sort of fallout this guy has when he gets older. I always thought I could live Rock Bottom in life, but this man has proven that it's possible to only skirt that line. Kudos Castle Wars Discord Mod!
I remember the good old days when I was like 7 or something in 2008 when the minigame was good with no illegal plugins and there wasn't much sabotagers
That angst and grudge is off the charts. It's like a Naruto villain who wants nothing but misery because they had a degrading sad experience somewhere when they were young.
That guy "duno" is still doing it to this day lol, he now goes by the rsn "Snipe", he has 6 or 7 100+ combat alts and puts them on one team for his small clan to stack one side, if they lose, he sabotages the other team
This is some movie villain shit. Part of a group, outcast and turning against former members for years to feel whole and to wrong what they’ve done to him. Now we need some hero’s to take them out and to bring back the game for the community
I still play rs mobile. I stopped playing castle wars out of spite I think. I'd rather hold on to the good memories then play it and realize how bad it's changed. It's like that for alot of minigames and pking now, people are too calculating now days and it drains the fun. Nice vid man rs lifestyle ftw
I’m 21 now, quit runescape at 17, now I’m back. I am in China now, I studied Chinese and Korean in which I’m fluent now, after these 4 years. Imagine this guy spent 10-15 years to achieve a few K castle wars tickets. Congratz my man! I’m learning Russian now. Going to Moscow in 2022! Hope you read this. Feelsbadman
I played clan wars 15 years ago... tons of level 25-75s, few 100-120+s, it was actually competitive. A few days ago I tried and it was completely one sided with 126s doing nothing but 20++++ hits
@Enthusiastic Aizawa what we said there wasn't intentional, but we are wondering why someone would get up early in the morning, hop on the mini game just to ruin the experience for everyone.
Every runescape issue has repeated itself over the last decade. 2012 litterally just hit the refresh button. 07 is in the same space that OG was in 2011 , besides the evolution of combat.
What an actual no lifer this is hilarious I can understand the motive for bot farmers and lurers (irl dinero). But this dude must reeeeally want that yellow castle wars armor lol
It pisses me off because castle wars used to be fun. And it pisses me off even more because I have to get up and go to work every day while this guy lives off Good Boy Points playing CW.
in soul wars there was a clan that was boosting people, i decided to troll them by dressing as a samuria and ice barrage noobs making there way to mid or ava, when i got bored i decided to leave and unbox for loot and got the pet, thanks gagex
Stacking CW was never what I or probably most other pro cw players considered sabotage, some people used to try using alts to get more players on one team, but a lot of us actively anti-stacked using alts to get onto the unstacked team, it'd usually only take 4-5 of us to easily smash a pretty heavily stacked team of bad cwarers, literally just 2 runners 1 max mage def, one max mage att, and 2-3 max mage/melee def. It became a problem when people started also using alts to flag hold, waste cades etc, and that was well before runelite and plugins, i haven't played since runelite was a thing, but i can see how it'd completely remove the skill, because incase anyone wasn't aware, well timed cade use and perfect placement was pretty much the key to completely humiliating an entire team of maxed mains on a level 50 flag running alt solo, i was never good enough to do it, but it was amazing to watch people who were way back in the day.
I used to play cw a ton, I played since release actually. Played from release to 2009, lost account to hacking. Came back in 2011, played it again mostly non stop, even got really good at it and sunk millions into runes, bolts and gear charge. Haven’t seen anyone play it in rs3 where I play though, I mean real play and seeing it come back a bit in old school almost makes me want to play it. But this is pretty sad. My cw group was w52 tunnel loafers where both sides meet underground and form a community of afk gameplay and fighting both sides but not each other. Probably the very first form of leeching but we didn’t do it for tickets but to chat and more often then not we removed a lot of talent from the game and could easily stack teams when we felt like playing. Was really fun crew.
they should make the rewards trade able and buyable from the shop. this will eliminate most incentive to play except from dedicated players and it will give people rewards and prevent the cheaters from having any fun doing so

why don't they just randomize the teams and make some kind of activity bar similar to pest control for barricades. if you haven't done enough damage or tried to score recently then can't place more than 2 barricades or something per player
Jagex just needs to spend some extra time and monitor when this stuff happens, and once they figure out the players that are doing this they need to just ban them from castle wars only. They could do this in a matter of days.
One thing that could help is to put a level minimum on the official worlds. Make it minimum combat 70 to join. Below that it people would probably not be very useful to the team anyways and it would make it a way harder to stack teams / the accounts aren't throwaway anymore if they get banned. At the same time keep it uncapped for unofficial worlds for the lower combat clans that want to play or maybe make a capped and an uncapped official world.
I only know Castle Wars as a place to teleport to so I can get to other places haha
It baffles me that they don't take more action. If I ever had a job at jagex I would be a ban hammer, but do it within bounds. Monitor the clans that has said reputation, monitor games and make lists. Not ban instantly, but do ban waves. Gotta gather as many as possible to do so before they catch on and change the ways in which they throw. I know banning accounts is bad, but they should implement account bans for Mini Games if thats too far. Violating in certain degrees could warrant a 24h ban with different tiers up to perma ban. The important part is to not just insta ban, but build cases to see if it's enough to perma ban from the mini games. Report functions wouldn't function cause we see it abused in every game, so this would require the community mods (i think there is something like this) is appointed to the right people, who then mark down people. These have to be trusted, and abuse of this will have severe consequences. They already work in the pve element, and a guy I played with was. The same can go for gold sales. Is it not their best interest to have a anti-cheat/grief/black market team? Their losing money and losing consumers based on the actions these players are taking, and their gaining. The investors must be blind to not have seen this, and fund a bit more into the game to make this happen. Their already making a bunch, so whats throwing 10% of the interest back into the game to properly make it flourish? Runescape is among the most loved and most nostalgic games out there. And with the recent launch on steam, they have the potential to grow their player base even further. They can turn those 10% into something more if numbers are all they care for, so why just sit and take the L? :(
are they making money from this? if this guy is buying hundreds of members account to do this maybe they need him
I used to play castle wars all the time back in the day on dedicated worlds its such a shame that such a good minigame is completely unplayable
I used to help and had a high rank in a clan that ran soul wars release back in old runescape. We had the biggest soul wars clan in runescape and our games were being spoiled by max main accounts. I can't remember the max main account clan name. But I ran my clan under V0p the leader Miley Cyruus. We ran that clan to get players zeals for their accounts. We used to infiltrate their clan with mains to get the call which side they joined zammy or Sara. They did moves before the game started to switch sides. They eventually banned our mains. We still ran our clan and got 95 percent calls right to maximize the amount of zeal you can get an hour (9 zeal). How? I had no main but called the games 98 percent right calls running the chat. Because I ran this clan with my friend Miley Cyruus who also was an eop member (we were pures coming from world 32 making soul wars f2p accounts). Well you contact me I'll tell you the entire story of the soul wars clan back in the day. :)
If that kid would have worked 15 hrs a day at 15 bucks an hour for the past 10 years he would have made 821 grand. And instead he has no money, and is probably very heavy.
Yes, but I know for a fact you can pay them to farm tickets for you, and it can be black market profitable
He would eventually stop if either OSRS pulls the plug by shutting down the game or he's unable to keep a roof over his head when his parents die and unable to pay the bills, sooner or later the repo man will show up and evict his ass.
That is a ridiculous argument. Working for 15 hours a day at $15/hr lmao. You forgot about multiple taxes as well.
@@tehmodestmouse6275 When you watch the video you will hear that the user plays for 15 hours a day griefing people. I'm not sure they tax handicapped people like the cwars griefer obviously is. You seem to be as well, but for your pretty little head I'll round down to 600k.
It's nice that you bring the CWs problems to light and get more eyes on the sabo topic. Ideally in your next video you talk about the positives of the community. Your video gives off the impression that there are no clans/teams/people combating the sabo's on a daily basis. The games are pretty balanced because once one team sabos - both teams sabo. At that point neither team is at an advantage over the other.
DNA Master Undefeated W34 CWs baby.
DNA cc never loses
Ran into this first hand. Put me off the mini-game all together.
Salty kids like that are what ruin the OSRS experience.
This is a salty adult.
@@magne7771 he has the mindset of a child.
This hurts my heart. I was active when castle wars was formed and it was really just a fantastically fun time. It was easy to spend countless hours there, making friends and just enjoying something different than the normal RS grind. I hate to see that it has been ruined for no reason. Truly hate to see where runescape has come.
Ah keeps. Sadly we getting to the age where our hair migrates from our head to our ass
LOL
It really sucks that some people gain enjoyment by ruining other's enjoyment. Ban more, ban harder.
I actually feel bad for that guy. His life is completely meaningless. I hope he gets help irl.
He's used the energy he could have used to assess himself to make people miserable on purpose. There's nothing to sympathise with, except this sad bastard's mother who had to put up with him. Imagine how hard he'd throw a fit if his food wasn't cut into perfect pieces, or if it was new
You know we are getting old as a fanbase when Crumb starts getting sponsored by hair loss products haha
I love your constant ragging and shaming of these guys. They need to be taken down a peg.
Love how you called him out for not having a job irl 🤣🤣🤣
Your videos are always so professional. Nice video. I thought it was funny how easy it was to find the keylogger.
It’s pretty sad, when I picked up OSRS again I was looking forward to playing this mini-game again and after 2 games of sabotage I never went back to Cwars
I made a video on this as well, it’s quite messed up and made suggestions on this. Great job resurfacing this because I knew something was off about this mini game
The hardest part of wanting to get back into runescape is just how serious everyone is about it now.
I swear!
I’ve been contemplating playing again but it just feels like a chore.
It’s all based on efficiency and order of completion. Miss that feeling of aimlessly walking around with no direction
After seeing this I’m convinced RuneScape has the most dedicated players. Good and bad.
Yep I gave up on even trying to have fun at CW forever ago. It’s sad man, it was where I went on my very first day of membership in 2005. Sometimes I’d like to go enjoy a competitive nostalgia trip but it’s not competitive, it’s just afk level 3’s and saboteurs :/
You also took a little break from the game afcourse...
Imagine being in heaven like: Cool, I griefed castle wars
The good Lord Jesus being like.. “that’s all you did..?”
“Not like they can go buy a bunch of bonds” bruh, you really said that
I don't understand what's to gain with sabotaging soul wars when you only have a 50% chance of being on the winning team. Surely that's equivalent odds to just playing the game normally?
Yup
Tbh 50% is probably a noticeable upgrade to these people.
@@neemiad xD
What about a 24 or 48 hour game play required to Enter the minigame?
Or like 40 combat or 300 skill total?
They want new players to play its part of f2p
Can't believe people like that exist. Really sad
Capture the flag in castle wars was peak fun (until you got hit by an ice barrage 😭)
I suck at castlewars. I never understood why my team always lost and enemy was always so strong. Maybe this explains it?
It’s actually easy to implement relevant updates to the minigame. Each problem you addressed can be definitely fixed. Jagex just needs to address this. But they will only give priority to this if this is a big enough of a concern to the community as a whole.
Liked for all the flame thrown at the antagonist lol
Imagine being so dissatisfied with your life that you get so much joy out of ruining other peoples experiences. Therapy should be free
Wow was surprised when I heard that track from the Witch's house. Very fine taste.
Amazing sound track
@@Crumb pf the Ib sound track kinda better tho...
Castle wars in 06-07 was so actually insane
Geez, could you imagine hating castle wars and just ruining their fun in a game that has literally no benefits for winning or losing (like gold). Dude needs a better hobby.
there is no fix for people wanting to grief
if they fix castle wars theres nothing stopping these people from going somewhere else
I love how he explains so in depth the meme as if we can't read it and understand ourselves lmao
Ye the guy seems like a bit of a cringe Lord x3
Imagine doing this when you can literally do anything else with your time. I'm not even mad, I'm impressed and hoping to see what sort of fallout this guy has when he gets older. I always thought I could live Rock Bottom in life, but this man has proven that it's possible to only skirt that line. Kudos Castle Wars Discord Mod!
its the same thing as other ppl who play rs. he just plays it differently
@@iSwearToCod terrible opinion
@@amp4105 cry more
You gave him his wetdream by showering that reddit post with his Twitter on the side
imagine ruining one of the most fun minigames back in the days. this was so much fun back in the days
I remember the good old days when I was like 7 or something in 2008 when the minigame was good with no illegal plugins and there wasn't much sabotagers
That angst and grudge is off the charts. It's like a Naruto villain who wants nothing but misery because they had a degrading sad experience somewhere when they were young.
That guy "duno" is still doing it to this day lol, he now goes by the rsn "Snipe", he has 6 or 7 100+ combat alts and puts them on one team for his small clan to stack one side, if they lose, he sabotages the other team
This is some movie villain shit. Part of a group, outcast and turning against former members for years to feel whole and to wrong what they’ve done to him. Now we need some hero’s to take them out and to bring back the game for the community
How sad can 1 player be god damn

''There's barricades in castle wars too but they're not as important as they are in castle wars.''
I bet his fingertips are orange.
Back in the day I said that these plugins will be the end of all and nobody should use them... Its sad that they're allowed
dang i see myself owning - ty for the feature
All i ever seen u do is feast brian -dell
Grow up Daz
I still play rs mobile. I stopped playing castle wars out of spite I think. I'd rather hold on to the good memories then play it and realize how bad it's changed. It's like that for alot of minigames and pking now, people are too calculating now days and it drains the fun. Nice vid man rs lifestyle ftw
I’m 21 now, quit runescape at 17, now I’m back. I am in China now, I studied Chinese and Korean in which I’m fluent now, after these 4 years. Imagine this guy spent 10-15 years to achieve a few K castle wars tickets. Congratz my man! I’m learning Russian now. Going to Moscow in 2022! Hope you read this. Feelsbadman
I played clan wars 15 years ago... tons of level 25-75s, few 100-120+s, it was actually competitive. A few days ago I tried and it was completely one sided with 126s doing nothing but 20++++ hits
I hope he watches this and cries himself to sleep
Nah not to sleep but to death
@Enthusiastic Aizawa what we said there wasn't intentional, but we are wondering why someone would get up early in the morning, hop on the mini game just to ruin the experience for everyone.
Every runescape issue has repeated itself over the last decade. 2012 litterally just hit the refresh button. 07 is in the same space that OG was in 2011
, besides the evolution of combat.
What an actual no lifer this is hilarious I can understand the motive for bot farmers and lurers (irl dinero). But this dude must reeeeally want that yellow castle wars armor lol
5:27 Galandorf1 an absolutely legend in the community! I remember joining Zamorak Elites with him & Red Sonya back in 2006!
It pisses me off because castle wars used to be fun. And it pisses me off even more because I have to get up and go to work every day while this guy lives off Good Boy Points playing CW.
@Enthusiastic Aizawa found the GBP millionaire
If a few people can ruin a minigame, imagine what a General Strike can do to your shitty job!
This is the only takeaway from this I support
in soul wars there was a clan that was boosting people, i decided to troll them by dressing as a samuria and ice barrage noobs making there way to mid or ava, when i got bored i decided to leave and unbox for loot and got the pet, thanks gagex
Stacking CW was never what I or probably most other pro cw players considered sabotage, some people used to try using alts to get more players on one team, but a lot of us actively anti-stacked using alts to get onto the unstacked team, it'd usually only take 4-5 of us to easily smash a pretty heavily stacked team of bad cwarers, literally just 2 runners 1 max mage def, one max mage att, and 2-3 max mage/melee def.
It became a problem when people started also using alts to flag hold, waste cades etc, and that was well before runelite and plugins, i haven't played since runelite was a thing, but i can see how it'd completely remove the skill, because incase anyone wasn't aware, well timed cade use and perfect placement was pretty much the key to completely humiliating an entire team of maxed mains on a level 50 flag running alt solo, i was never good enough to do it, but it was amazing to watch people who were way back in the day.
You could just be a man and embrace the baldness. Lex Luthor wears it well and so can you.
I miss the good old days in castle wars, I wish they was able to come back one day! I used to spend hours there back in the day
What a sad dude xD
Perhaps implementing a minimum combat level requirement would combat the level 3 alt stacking.
Imagine your life being about a minigame in a game. Mad
Btw nice roasts. I can imagine him getting triggered watching this 🤭
And reading comments!

How sad of a life do you have to have by playing 15 hours/day just doing this? Lol
I used to play cw a ton, I played since release actually. Played from release to 2009, lost account to hacking. Came back in 2011, played it again mostly non stop, even got really good at it and sunk millions into runes, bolts and gear charge. Haven’t seen anyone play it in rs3 where I play though, I mean real play and seeing it come back a bit in old school almost makes me want to play it. But this is pretty sad.
My cw group was w52 tunnel loafers where both sides meet underground and form a community of afk gameplay and fighting both sides but not each other. Probably the very first form of leeching but we didn’t do it for tickets but to chat and more often then not we removed a lot of talent from the game and could easily stack teams when we felt like playing. Was really fun crew.
Crumb, please donate some keeps to Odablock.

That intro to the add was more smooth than life
imagine spending literally most of your life doing shit like this. It's quite sad.
they should make the rewards trade able and buyable from the shop. this will eliminate most incentive to play except from dedicated players and it will give people rewards and prevent the cheaters from having any fun doing so
What does he gain off this??
Like the player who keeps killing the minin game
Just attention, something he likely desperately lacks
