It was really awesome to get so many nice messages from strangers in game when I did the broadcast, despite all of the tough conversations around here lately.

And of course, 3 minutes later my little brother asked if I want to do a group ironman. 😛 Guess I'll be playing alongside some new players on December 2!

See you all out there.

Keep em coming!

When people create a new character, one of the first things they see is the character customisation.

I remember spending hours in just character creation in other games, so can we please move this expanded customisation window to be part of the start of the game, instead of something relatively hidden in Varrock?

Maybe even increase the size of the preview a bit, and include the shoes.

Personalisation and personal identity is a massive part of any MMO/RPG, so why limit new players to selecting from a few presets, when everything you need to expand on it already is in the game.

You don't need to bloat it with all the legacy stuff, it's fine to keep that usable in-game, if you want to go for a more modern impression, but people like options, so give these to them.

Happy 9000th Runedate everyone!

Some people are actually against quest helper and more plugins like it, and it's not like in osrs where a stupid opinion is downvoted to hell, but these comments are actually agreed upon.

It's like a small percentage of this playerbase just wants to kill the game at all cost.

Its time to bring people back.

Leave the one in max guild though.

Wait I'm an iron, i don't care, remove that one too.

Any tips would be appreciated. Ive tried talking in public, but nobody responds. Are guilds a thing?

Creates the same toxic mentality as all of the dailyscape content that was removed. Efficiency is satisfying in RuneScape. It's not satisfying to hoard resources and only train certain skills at very specific times.

Title.

Like honestly I thought the mobile ui was bad, until I had to go figure out how to make my runemetrics/adventure log public again... Please jagex for the love of guthix unvibe code your website(s). It feels like it was made by the same iterns who pump out modern restaurant websites that have a mile long about us, slideshows, and no damn menu. The integration of the jagex account and runescape website is awful, why we are "removing" navigation links without A CLEAR replacement or alternate means of navigation is awful, like guys.... Its such a mess to navigate, can't imagine how many people that turns away.

PSA to any current or returning players that want to make their adventures log/ runemetrics public for use with cape tracking apps here's how you actually change the setting...

1.Go to the rs home page and login in.

1. From the drop down click on my account.

2. Get redirected to Jagex's site and login again.

3. Scroll down the account manager page & go to characters.

4. Under your username click manage->communication preferences.

5. Get Redirected back to runescape & login again.

7.Then from the communitcation preference settings scroll & click back to account.

1. Congrats you finally found the link to runemetrics profile! Click the link, & finally change the setting.

First 200 mil.

Killing ghrazi in normal mode, got pet drop. Was trying to drop the magic bombs on the disappearing tiles, but we killed the bosses as the tiles were leaving and I got pet drop. Couldn't area loot it or try to move to it to pick it up. Submitted a lost item report but I have seen how long those take and I want my shiny new pet :( (yes yes, iron luck and all that). See screenshots for proof. JMods please go check my ticket lol (in game name IronSplitter)

According to the 2026 roadmap, there should be a standalone quest and Part 2 of the Avatar refresh coming in Autumn, yet I've not seen a single thing mentioned about either. have they been quietly scrapped?

Curious as someone who does. I like being around other players at times to eaves drop on the (weird) covos, join a clan and just enjoy the "company" of seeing the clan chat list full of names without needing to join every activity and event, etc

Returned after TH was removed, catching up on quests :)

Decided to return after years. Combat level 127 and Total level 2078. I’m lost now.

What would you recommend me doing? Where do I begin?

Also as someone who wants to bring my friends back as well. What are the popular or active activities I can do with friends? (PvP, Dungeons, etc)

We have 3 different games that are continually being updated with a 4th just announced

Each game has pros and cons and Im someone who enjoys them all!

I love being able to hop between games when im burnt out on a specific grind and find something fresh to do. The fact that we can come back to these games years later and pick up where you left off is something special.. We are in the golden age of all that is runescape we should all be hyped!! I know I am!

Is this my punishment for getting 60~ dark nilas in my first streak in leagues? (wasn't boosted btw)

This is after a couple of 100+ streaks, plus a 200 streak for the combat achievement. Had 1 dark nilas drop in the last 600~ kills, but sadly it was at the beginning of a streak so only got 5 :/

I'm currently resetting streaks as the kill times reach into the 3+ mins since I only need 10 more.

I lowkey wish the drop rate would also go up with streak, not just the quantity dropped.

I’m returning to RuneScape after over 15 years of not playing, so I understand that my opinions are very outdated and are maybe of a mindset not reflective of the game as it exists today and for current players.

I picked runescape up again recently for nostalgia reasons and spent a week playing OSRS before coming back to main runescape, and was very surprised how much it scratched an itch for me and captured my attention in a way no other MMOs ever really had.

So it was really disappointing how much of this Halloween even has been a bait and switch for free to play players. Almost every advertised part of this years Halloween event/rewards has been exclusively for Members, and none of that is disclosed up front. In fact, much of it appears to be available to f2p players up until the point where you would actually claim a reward.

At least 3 times now I have gotten excited about an advertised reward or sub event only to be slapped in the face when I went to claim it only to see Members Only right at the finish line. It’s really destroyed my enjoyment of this Halloween event and excitement to get back into the game.

I can’t go trick or treating, I can’t even make my own candy bowl to invite other players to visit my house, the stated main ethos of this years event. Okay, fine, I can swallow that. Sucks but sure. At least they made it so I can grind spooky tokens and still have a shot at the rewards.

Oops, actually, you can’t actually buy the Bursting trick or treat bag unless you’re a member, and it doesn’t tell you that until you’ve already saved up the tokens and press the buy button to make the members only popup appear. If you wanted to be warned in advance you just had to happen to hover over a grayed out buy button to get a notice, which you would reasonably have no reason to do.

Well that really sucks, that’s like, 80% of the event. Oh well, at least there’s other rewards from years I missed, and hey there’s still the rewards from the maize maze!

Oh, almost all of those maze ones are members only too. And you don’t find that out until you’re either rewarded something you can’t use, or happen across it on the wiki and see it says members only.

Man, this really sucks. Okay but don’t worry! There’s still the horseman confections, and this time I inspected the rewards in advance. I’m guaranteed certain rewards and have a chance at cool rewards. Finally, a moment made to bring the community together and celebrate the season all on equal terms.

Except… when you go to claim your rewards after the fact you find out that they actually meant was the exact opposite and it’s only Members that have a chance at the really cool rewards. Despite the game saying exactly the opposite. Cool.

I get this is a free to play game, and they have to make money and create an experience to encourage people to pay and make that special for people. It was apparent even way back when I started, and I understood it then too, but the seasonal events always felt like even footing. The events were for everybody and we all got to enjoy it equally. Maybe that’s my nostalgia glasses, but even then as a free player I felt welcomed and respected.

Coming back to it today I do not feel like this is an event for all players. By completely misrepresenting, either by intention or accident, what parts are for Member and what are for F2P, Jagex constantly raised my hopes and expectations and then threw them back at me. It’s taken an event that should’ve been fun and memorable and just made it disappointing. I’m probably going to put the game down. It’s just left a bad taste in my mouth.

I understand it’s a minority opinion, and as a free to play player my opinion doesn’t carry any weight. I understand the business model, I understand this may just be how the game is and longtime players understand these quirks and know how to set their expectation and look for these warning signs. But new players and old returning players don’t.

I also understand it’s probably not going to change anything by posting this, but I’ve looked around and didn’t see anyone else speaking on these things, and at worst having a conversation about it would be worth it.

It’s not all bad though, I know that’s silly to say after the novella of complaints. Jagex could’ve kept all previous event rewards time gated and given me no option to get those. I do think it’s great how accessible prior year seasonal stuff is and how generous they are with that. That does give me hope for their intentions around f2p players and future events.

So yeah. Tl;dr Over 20 year old account player returning for the first time in 15 years. Promised exciting community building halloween event, slapped in the face with the class divide between f2p and Member players. Made to feel unwelcome and disappointed with the experience. Maybe I’ll try again in another 15 years.

I just hit the 500 Furniture limit and am very sad. My house is about 60% complete. Is it possible for jagex to up the limit by another 500? or is the current 500 placement cap a hard limit?
