I read somewhere that Hezbollah started using pagers as their main method of communication instead of cell phones out of worry that phones would get hacked. That’d explain the prevalence of the pagers.

You are citing a statement, and it is a fact that the statement was said, but the content of that statement is not a fact because there’s very little evidence to support it being a fact. Lies exist, especially from the election meddling, ex KGB foreign adversary national leader types.
There’s a big difference between citing facts and citing a statement. You likely have no evidence that the statement is a fact, besides taking the ex-kgb leader of an adversarial nations word at face value, which…does sound a little silly when you say it out loud like that, doesn’t it? Keep in mind this nation has definitely messed with our elections in the past too lol.

I was going to say, there were definitely horny games but you wouldn’t talk about them in the open.
Honestly genshin and honkai aren’t even that bad. You want a bad one, look at nikke. Ass and titties jiggle physics: the game.
There were no citations to back up relatively unknown claims besides digging through the comments of a reddit mega thread.
If that counts as making a good argument to anyone, I envy their free time, or worry for their information hygiene.
I told you I don’t care to read any more comments from you, yet you persist. Weird.
Do you fancy yourself royalty dismissing their subjects? Lol. At once, my liege, I will be gone from your sight. Toodles!
You have been given the opportunity to find more info if that’s insufficient.
“Do your own research”, a line associated with the great and credible orators of the internet.
I think a compelling statement should be made with citations if it’s not a well known fact, especially when provided to a general community.
I don’t care enough about niche old game drama to chase down the facts myself if it involves going through the comments of an entire Reddit mega thread.
Does that resolve your proposed cognitive dissonance?
“why can’t you be like everyone else?”
Idk guess I just like to verify shit before picking up the pitchfork. My b.
I also made the 16% error lol, math is hard.
Yeah I realized the difference is unpacking the clickbait as opposed to providing a verifiable claim.
Ah that’s fair, lol.
I realized we’re talking about two different things, you’re saying that the post unpacks the clickbait, and I’m saying that there’s no documentation of price increases, which tbf isn’t OPs main point anyways.
Just to be clear, by “read the post” do you mean go through all the comments of the mega thread OP shared? That seems unreasonable as opposed to “OP could’ve been clearer”. I’ve read both OPs post as well as the jagex website linked by Reddit and neither have enough information to back up OPs claims without prior knowledge.
Is there a more summarized version then “all the reddit comments on a mega thread” anywhere? Because that is basically halfway to telling someone to “do your own research”. At least quote some specific comments that could be taken as secondary sources.
We’ve had to dilute clickbaity titles before, we’ve also been pissed off at clickbaity titles before. I’d rather that shit not be normalized, personally.
Ah, that would’ve been much better for OP to include as an example…
Oh.
I don’t think I care enough about drama in a niche game to do a deep dive on all of the reddit comments to learn about something…
It would be helpful if you or OP could provide links, or at least quote things. Most passerbys simply have better things to do than to find better context of what OP is saying about a game from 20 years ago. I think it’s only natural for people to be confused when OP didn’t provide enough context, or the only way to get context is to apparently read an entire Reddit threads worth of comments.
I feel like I’m missing something completely - maybe I do need to learn how to read. The only thing I’m seeing on the jagex page is new prices for a handful of currencies under “pricing table”, SEK is not one of them.
There’s no mention of past prices at all? Is there another link I’m not seeing?
EDIT: I think my main point is that as far as I can tell, you need to be an active member of the RuneScape community to know what the prices actually increased from, so “learn to read” wasn’t very helpful to casual passerbys, and OPs post could have some more clarity and examples of increased prices for those not already in the know. It was especially confusing that the only example they provided wasn’t an example of the 50% increase mentioned in the title.
This is a general games community so I think it’s fair to ask for some more context and leniency for such a niche game. If you want folks to care, don’t make it hard for them to do so.
So OP wrote a misleading description when saying the increase was from $12 to $14?
I don’t play RuneScape and I’m just going off of their description, which is inconsistent and the derogatory “just read lol” has so far shown to be wrong.
This is only one small piece of the puzzle, but it’s fairly common to have trouble finding a place to rent if you’re a foreigner, specifically because you’re a foreigner.
