Too many threads locked. We couldn't discuss most of the topics we wanted to discuss.
I agree
I remember I had a thread locked simply due to a player targeting it with 161 spam posts. When moderators posted that this individual spamming the thread may result in my thread being locked, they continued with no repercussions :/. Against Raffle Rigging since 2015

''we've therefore decided to channel more of our staff time and resources into those platforms for improved engagement.''
Load of crap. It's been years since J mods/ community momagers have posted on the forums. Forum mods do not even get paid.
You nailed it. This is a classic example of a self-fulfilling prophesy.
When the J-mods decided to abandon this forum to splash around in the social-media cesspools to spend more time with the teeny-boppers over their loyal playerbase, naturally the gushing fanlings followed them there. The mods spent more time there and clearly none here, driving even more traffic away from the RSOF and into the social-media sewers.
Just imagine how different the situation might be now, if Jagex had only been more active on their own forums - driving traffic away from third-party sites instead of towards them. Perhaps then we might have seen very different newsposts from Jagex announcing new features coming to the RSOF, alongside the shutting down of the RS Discord servers, due to a lack of usage.
It is as if they said their thumbs hurt, then they picked up hammers to smash their own thumbs with, so they can be right in saying their thumbs are injured.
Like I said: A self-fulfilling prophesy. I've been putting out fire with gasoline!
