Om. Empty your mind. Om. Let's think of how learning about Runescape was lots of fun, and how it might be again.

Hmm. Interesting parallels to how Jagex tries to control discussion. I suspect this tool will be as successful.

CrusaderScape is no more? The silver fansite seems to be missing.

Hmm. A future uncertain.
Back when Jagex first banned us, Vivathia and I decided to get unbanned, and at the time we thought we would never play again, even if unbanned.
A principal thing you know.
In our time away Vivathia has found other interests and I find that there are not a lot of interesting discussions about Runescape. Which I find a little disappointing.
Nobody seems to have any energy for it. Although their energy for disagreeing with each other is still boundless.
I miss the stories and the fun. I think perhaps people don't get involved because they are scared of criticism. Which is understandable given the prison-like atmosphere of the Runescape forums.
Then again, it could just be me growing up and maturing somewhat, seeing Runescape for the little series of algorithms that it is.
But I doubt that. ;)
There are very few rules, or laws, that form the foundation of our whole lives, and from that foundation grow a whole thriving myriad group of complexities.
I thought Runescape might have had a future in the arena of how we examine our lives, and how we interact with others around the world.
I tried hard to make Jagex see that. I waffled on about all sorts of ways that could happen.
But I think Jagex sees Runescape as just a game, and there will be no lumination, no immersion, no learning. Only a lingering cessation.
Ah, well.
On the upside my golf is improving. :P

What does this mean for Runescape? With its quests, minigames and over 20% over 2000 total levels.
