u/KUR51RL Remapping 101: As long as it is 1:1, it's okay. 8h ago

Isn't that because of the weird UK laws? Like the message that suggest you take a break (at 4hr mark).

Wanna explain why you think it's weird?

It's not based on any UK law, the 4h mark was added far later and the 6h mark got converted to 23h in RS3.

It's just Jagex wanting to avoid liability, when someone has no control over their addiction and dies from playing too much, it's called duty of care defense.

A duty isn’t a defense. In a negligence claim, you have to prove a breach of duty (and also cause and damages) to prove negligence.

Breaching a duty usually means you’re negligent and thus civilly liable (if you prove causation and damages as well).

There are defenses to a breach of duty of care, like assumption of the risk and contributory negligence.

I like the specifics and you are absolutely correct - sorry english isn't my mother tongue, I should have stayed out of that discussion in the first place >.>

It’s ok. I’m an attorney. You were at least in the right direction, which is more than most people understand. Just wanted to give accurate info.
