In the runescape community there is a divide btw runescape 3 and osrs. Jagex devoted most of their resources to rs3 while osrs had 5x the player base of paying customers.
Jagex released an update to rs3 that was basically a shit on the face of the community and only introduced more micro transaction pay2win bullshit into the game. This rs3 player made a post on the osrs subreddit explaining the situation and how the game they love is being destroyed by jagex greed. Now keep in mind osrs players also are pissed at jagex for destroying the game they love and dropping the ball with osrs at the time.
How does the osrs community react to this out stretched hand. They spit in the posters face. Downvoted to hell with 1000s of comments clowning the guy saying no one gives a fuck about rs3 and that they are glad jagex is putting micros in rs3 because it's better there than osrs. Calling rs3 a dead game. Basically saying you're an idiot for spending tens of thousands of hours playing a game that is shit and it doesn't deserve to be saved.
I get that that shit was uncalled for but at the same time hope it sent a strong message to jagex.
But knowing jagex probably has its head to far up its own ass to see daylight, nah that guy didn't deserve it.
