Global Reward Messages

Recommended Posts

In-Game Name:

Callum.

What Are You Suggesting:

The removal of specific items/instances of global reward messages to avoid spam.

Who/What Does This Benefit:

Pretty much every player who comes on consistently.

Any Additional Information:

In its current state, there are a set number of items or instances that are overused within the global reward message system that become a general nuisance for either something with no value or something that is easily obtainable. Off the top of my head, these are some of the ones that could use removal or adjustments:

  • Smouldering Stone from Hellhounds - The item is near worthless due to the incredible rates that it comes into the game and thus does not need to be announced server-wide.
  • Fight Caves - In regards to the Fight Caves, its slightly different. If it could be adjusted to "PLAYER has completed the Fight Caves for the FIRST time" and never post again, then that could be something more relevant. But due to the fact that the Caves can be completed within a minute or two, it generates incredible amounts of spam.
  • Crystal Chest Rewards - A bit of a yes or no to some players, the rewards themselves aren't viewed as valuable and do not really require a global feed to know that somebody has got another item that they are going to Alch. The Fish Mask, Rubber Chicken and Web Cloak are some prime examples of this.

 

These are off the top of my head, there is more than likely to be many more. If there is any prime ones that I have missed then feel free to post them below and I will update the thread.

Agreed, especially with the fight caves one. When people are grinding for the cape or onyx is gets pretty spammy

Used to be a rite of passage on any Ironman account going for it up until the Training Store. But even when people are Clue Hunting, the Jad steps, it becomes repetitively annoying.

Personally, the Smouldering Stone never should have been on the Hellhounds table to begin with. It's a Cerberus exclusive yet we're too far in to revert it now unless Administration decided to do a full rollback on the item.

Shouldering Stone is on hellhounds drop table. Not just Cerberus. It’s one of the 1/32k on osrs

Oh, was completely unaware of this. I guess in this sense the rate itself could use buffing? It definitely needs it.

If I remember correctly, a drop can't have more than X drop rate or something like that, there's something behind smouldering stone being so common.

 

OT: I agree with everything here, some of these global messages can be a bit much
