    Two words: Instant Gratification.

    This is what RSPS is founded on since the very beginning, at least the ones that weren't actually using it for educational purposes.
    The whole point is to skip the grind and get right to the "fun" parts. That's why, generally speaking, people don't care to play 100 copy and paste leeched servers, they don't care about donating real money for pay2win content.

    It's the name of the game, that's why when you have people complaining because of this or that, it's because anyone who habitually lean towards that type of mentality will inevitably not be satisfied.

    also side note:
    positive vibes isn't what fuels progression - harsh critics are inevitably the reason the path to improvement can exist, also why black hat hackers are useful. Having a sense of community is great, don't get me wrong - banding together certainly helps things move, but simply assuming positivity will be the most beneficial is naive.

    Adding to this, even if you make it to that point, making good additions to the game is... not easy. For instance, proper procedure for coming up with a new piece of equipment demands a fair amount of thought. What stats does it have? What value or use do those stats give it compared to other items? Does it have a unique effect? What about a special attack if it's a weapon? How does said effect or special work in tandem with the stats? How do you even obtain the item in the first place, and how does the difficulty in doing so work in tandem with everything else?

    Few people are even willing and capable of this much thoughtfulness, fewer yet know how to code or are willing to learn, and even fewer are willing to actually try. It's a sad but true reality that the RSPS scene is not much of a modding community.



    On a brighter note, OP, I'm sure every server that fits your description appreciates the encouragement, and I'm sure they'd appreciate it even more if you took the time to show direct support in their threads.

    This is why projects such as Empyrean and Illerai exist. Each servers' respective development teams often have the same general ideas on how to transform every people's idea of a RSPS or even a customs server. I personally don't believe that RSPS was meant to be a money grabber, but a way for RuneScape players to change and modified the game in their OWN way. With Illerai releasing in about 3 or 4 weeks, I have high hopes for what will come next in the RSPS scene and how it will benefit the community as a whole. I wish the best of luck to Illerai and hopefully, Empyrean will also be able to continue impressing people within the community as well.

    Yeah i agree, been mucked around alot in the RSPS scene in GENERAL not just the rune-server community and i try to come across as a decent enough guy i thought very genuine. But being a dev / server owner with no coding experience prior to purchasing my current server (the only one i have ever worked on) i have had to rely on hiring developers to get certain things done faster rather than just straight trying to grind it out solo, learning as i go. Doing this i have come across some very... Let me put it nicely, interesting individuals.

    I hope that in the future of the Private Server scene we have some verified or similar type of "freelancers" because atm its kind of like the wild west ... In a sense.

    Nothing but positivity because thats what gaming is suppose to be for, enjoying yourself, not having toxic scamming people who seem all nice to you via DMS/Chats messaging you for 2 days to scam $25 sort of thing.

    Idk if this even makes sense! lol. But yeah. Good-day folks.

    EDIT: Saying this i have met A LOT of genuine people also.

    Great points, but I think it's negative and non-constructive feedback he's talking about.

    I can mention countless of private server scenes which is not based on "instant gratifcation". If we compare it to other private server scenes (yes RSPS is far from alone), majority of RSPS is literally what you could deem as a "funserver", as in that you play for an hour or two and then you are max level and can do bandos/raids/whatever. They are rightfully "funservers" because of the fact that the average RSPS emulates somewhere equivalent to like 1/1000 of the content Runescape actually offers. It is in my opinion that if RSPS could offer maybe 50-70% of the content retail Runescape offers, you'd actually start to see this scene being taken more serious.

    Noticing a bit of a gravedig above, but.. I just have to put this out here. Illerai didn't even get off its feet.
    I'm not trying to roast them here, but this makes a clear point to anyone that thinks that custom - completely different from RS - servers are the way to go. They don't get anywhere near the following because the amount of people who actually prefer this over to the normal OSRS and other revision servers is a minority with a large voice, making it seem bigger than it really is.

    OSRS & mix/OSRS will continue to thrive. There's just no competition to that.

    Illerai didn't get off its feet because it was a bug fiesta. Players got stuck in tutorial, had their accounts nulled, walked outside of map areas, etc. Not to mention that it launched, got reset and re-launched a week later. Took it about a week after the re-launch to even stabilize. The problem wasn't with the concept of a custom RSPS, it was a poor base (Vencillio, which in itself is a mess) alongside bad testing. It would be the same as saying that Runite didn't even get off its feet, and so Custom RSPS & Custom/OSRS RSPS will continue to thrive w/o any competition.
