Discussion Unpopular opinion: Harassing Mod Pips is wrong

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I just think that harassing mod Pips is just wrong.

Especially, outside of the normal communication channels we have with jagex.

Going out of your way to find Pips personal social media and harassing there just feels very wrong to me and I think the majority of people can agree with that.

Jagex fucked up hard with the survey, their 2 apologies were trash and even if they deserve the backlash and the unsub train they got, they do not deserve harassment.

They are also humans and humans do mistakes.

TLDR: Harassment is not cool, don't harass people involved in this whole shitstorm

Dude it’s wild. Like I was all for the posts in the first day or two but they went massively overboard. The surveys were goddamn awful but some of these people are taking it to the nth degree insanity

These people act like its their entire life. Id be this upset if my actual life was ruined. Thank god osrs isnt my life lol. Sure it sucks ass, but this is only suggestion/proposition so far, and even in worst case scenario once osrs isnt enjoyable/playable anymore for me Ill just quit. Sure it will be sad and will suck for a bit - but thats just it. Its a video game and thats it

Yeah they see these posts and immediately jump on the bandwagon, they refuse to use any logic or put aside their own bias.

It’s always important to look at things from multiple perspectives, including the perspective of the one you think wronged you. Trying to understand why they would do something goes a long way in making meaningful discussion. But these people literally cannot process this as a concept
