Gnomonkey's opinion

  • Gnomonkey disagrees with Reddit comments that granite mining is ruining the game.2
  • Gnomonkey says Rubium was not intended to be a granite 2.0, since it was meant to be an activity for a valuable resource rather than a method where you drop everything, but as released it was granite but better in every way: easier, better money and the same speed.3
  • Gnomonkey says some Granite sweats may want its integrity maintained, but he does not care about Granite being devalued by a better method, and does not think Jagex cares either.4
  • Gnomonkey says the integrity of Mining in general should be maintained, and that a method that makes Granite pointless at the same requirements would not be healthy.5
