#1 - Wild Pies - I'm sick of people using these p.o.s. items to kill monster that the are to low for w/o them.
#2 - Pest Control - Way to easy to level combat, even with this updated that lowered the exp rate.
#3 - Varrock Museum - Ruined my goal of keeping level 1 Hunter.
#4 - Changing MSB Spec - Screwed rangers over big time.
#5 - All the *Blank* X amount options - Making skills way to easy to get up to 99.

1) Newest System Update: it has such a lot of things I hate. One of the things is the Sound Effects that are mixed with Area Sounds. Another thing is when you right-click, the options take in the entire screen which means we can't take decent kill pictures anymore and last but not least, if you for example eat a shark and immediatly right-click, then your option window goes away.

2) Pest Controle Update: The shields make the game boring.

3) Farming: I have yet to see the use in that...

4) ... idk anymore

Stop hating Hunter. It is fun (in my opinion), chinchompas are a good addition to range, and who doesn't like wearing the head of a saber toothed animal?

I'll go with:

1: Pure essence, ruined a way of f2p moneymaking, and the price is now high.
2: Chicken suits...enough said.
3: Skill X, takes longer to do some skills, and makes the impatient newbies able to get levels easier.
4: MSB spec, even though I'm not a ranger it was very unfair.
5: Wildy ditch, makes it slower while runecrafting, and once again, appealed to the impatient newbies that don't want to read the manual.

It was made to be more minigame like, slowed down the experience a bit, and made it harder for pures. =D>

Most of the "do-x" things. The only one I like is filling vials with water. I guess cook-x was ok as well, something I didn't want when it came out, though. But I dislike the others.

Quests. A lot are nooby and have no good reason to do them.

Skill tutors. I have never even talked to these people so I don't know what they do, but I'm guessing it's for newbs who don't know where the Knowledge Base is. I think they give supplies to train the skill they tutor, like arrows and runes- why? I think this would create more beggars, whiners, etc. They got they're levels for free from the tutors when they were level 3, some will think Jagex is going to buy them 99 *skill* when they're a higher level. Most of us did fine learning how to do the skills when we started playing, why can't the newer people?

The Wilderness Ditch. As much as I hate luring and still do with the ditch, let the idiots get lured. It's so easy to avoid it, people attempted to lure me about 5 times. Hi, are you 95-98 combat? Wanna buy a party hat for 10M? I'm woodcutting in the wildy, meet me there. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

Me not getting free Santa hats and green party hats on Christmas, free green masks and pumpkins on Hallowe'en, and free Easter Eggs on Easter. :wink:

Hmm, the first 4 updates I listed were for newer players or complainers...

Hunter is the best skill ever created! It is great fun, and helped me TONS overall in the game. I reccomend, you give it a shot. I would bet that if you rant about Hunter, 9/10 times, you aren't even ranked in it...

I do agree with all teh other ones.

I don't get it, Hunter is a fun skill. How can it be considered a bad update? It did basically nothing to the economy, and if you don't like it, don't use it. The Wilderness Ditch does nothing either, except add about 2 seconds to getting into the Wilderness.

Here's my five:

1. Pure Essence was a bad update, some people got rich over night, while some people lost money. And for what? Autoers still mine Essence, good job Jagex.

2. The Abyss. Yep, I said it. Nature and Law running is the way to go, and besides, with the Abyss, came Abyss Pk'ing.

3. Cook - X... As much as I love Cooking, we all know Cook - X kind of ruined the skill.

4. Pyramid Plunder. Once again, I love using Pyramid Plunder, but 99 Thieving isn't really an accomplishment anymore.

5. The many quests released every month. As if reading a guide telling you exactly what to do for 30 minutes means anything.

As for my favourite three updates (I know you didn't ask).

1. The Rogues Den. My absolute favourite update since I began playing. I love the look of it, and the usefulness. Wallsafes are great for Thieving EXP and Gems, the fire is amazing for Cooking, and the maze is fun. Rogues Armour is the greatest looking thing to wear (in my opinion).

2. ClanChat. Chatting with multiple friends at once is exactly what Rs needed. Glad I can communicate with everyone friom RSBANDB in game now.

3. Skill Capes. Look great, sweet emotes, and they give you something to work for.

Best Wishes,
BlkMage

Ps. I'm taking back 'bold'.
