Took a day or two to recover from bonus xp weekend. Got 97 Attack, Strength and Defense before returning to thieving to pick up 98 Thieving. Our clan has a competition this week for thieving so aiming for 99 during that week. Then full bore into 99 hp after that (don't tell me it's constitution).

In the last few months I've become increasingly irritated with Jagex's decisions. The bugs, quite honestly, don't bother me. I understand lots of lines of code, millions of users....guaranteed bugs.

Bonus weekends meh. Yes they make things easier but it's a game and I get it. Wish it was better executed but it's minor.

Nope...the thing that makes me facepalm is twofold:

1) Why why why is a Jmod (Mod Poppy) starting a clan? Seriously? There's hundreds of people running hundreds of clans and Jagex starts their own? I don't get it. I know it's the year of clans (in fact, I think I said it before Jagex did :) ) but come on. Jmods have a huge advantage to running clans (think of recruitment) and a Jagex run clan is not within anyone's definition of what a clan is about. It should be about players forming groups of friends to do stuff. I realize that this is part of community outreach but it just hits me wrong. Normally not something I would rant about or even go beyond "meh" with but then

2) What the hell Jagex? Kicking off clan month the same weekend as bonus weekend? How does that make sense? What in the hell were you thinking? There's exactly 6 days a year that EVERYONE pretty much goes heads down into skilling and you had to pick 3 of them to kick off clan month? What about the other 10 months of the year?
