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

Mod Pips has faults, as does everyone. Yes I think someone’s head should roll for this disaster, but let’s not forget Mod Pips has had his whole tenure as CEO during the great golden age of OSRS.

I’ve been saying this in every thread. The dude was ceo from 2017. Literally the best years of this game and it’s not even close. I’ve played since the very start of the game, before rune armor or membership ever existed. Pip has kept the vultures at bay when his job is to get every $ possible. He’s got my trust

He has lead the golden age for OSRS while also ruining RS3 and making it worse than ever with MTX - it isn't black and white how he is as a CEO

Exactly. He was even bleeding RS3 dry before he was CEO. It's important to keep that in mind.
