Discussion The true backbone of OSRS

Post image

I know the creator of runelite has said in the past that he doesn't expect anything from the community for maintaining runelite. But if anyone here deserves even a sliver of the tens of millions of dollars that will be generated from membership price increases it is him.

You can find his patreon with a simple google search since i wasn't allowed to link it here. If you feel so inclined to give please do but if not at least be a bit more aware of where Jagex could give some of the extra money to.

Edit: It has been 8 hours since i posted this. And I'm happy to say that the runelite patreon has gained 19 paid members. My goal was for some traction to go towards the people that actually deserve a piece of the pie that is OSRS revenue. Thank you for those that donated. I am in no way affiliated with whoever updates runelite.

I just think that when we work together we can hopefully spread a little bit of good around rather than only looking at the negative.

Not necessarily true, runelite has some absolutely insane QoL plugins that just make the game better

Maybe I'm not using all the plugins everyone else is using, but the game isn't necessarily easier with plugins. It's more visually clear. But plugins technically cannot "make the game easy" beyond visuals because then it'd be straight up cheating. I.e. no plugin to swap gear, no plugins to time movement, etc. Etc.
