The CM contract probably costs Jagex $40,000 - $50,000 USD a year (two people part time at 20 hrs each). If they were going to shut down the forums, they wouldn't spend that kind of money on maintaining them.

(Why they hired CM's instead of a staff member for the forums is a mystery to me.)

They've hired people in the same capacity for Reddit (?) I read somewhere recently. Three, I think. Maybe Jagex JMods are developing an aversion to interacting directly with the community no matter where it is.

The Forums are not shutting. Mod Poerkie and Mod Osborn said on a livestream not too long ago.

Also if they did shut then I think it would be the end for me on RuneScape. I would quit. Yes no-one can just quit RuneScape lol heard it all before. If the Forums did go then sadly so do I. :P

Just got back from doctors. Back to physo I go. My bleeding back is killing me again. I fell over lol. Fell going upstairs again. This time over my dog. She does not like my plant at the top of my stairs. I have a 35+ year old yucca tree I've had for a very long time and when she sees it she will not go upstairs unless shes with me. I'm not moving it lol.

I may have to go private and pay for a chiropractor. Physo last time was a waste of time. Not expecting any different this time. :P Comprehensive Account Security
Live long and Prosper...... :P

Reddit mods are volunteers. You might be referring to Jagex's "influencer management" person, which is related to videos and streaming.


Mmmm, no I think this is different. Have a look at Windsofnight's post in the W&F Chat Lounge and see what you make of it. Definitely 3 LMods on Reddit.

completed hazeel cult quest, mountain daughter quest, freeing awowogei and pirate pete quests, 49 agility, 64 magic, skippy and the mogres miniquest, making history quest, enchanted key miniquest, 62 crafting in OSRS although brypo essence doesn't sell for 5% above ge so I guess the crafting levels are good for lunar diplomacy

Jagex clearly not interested in what anyone on the RSOF has to say.

They made that crystal clear when they decided it wasn't "worth it" to fix the broken forum avatars.

There's no hope for RSOF. I fully expect them to one day announce they're shutting it down.
I'll probably use Reddit then, I don't use it now.
Never drop a valuable item.
